I just realized I'm going to need a suit.
Just sitting here doing homework, studying for my last midterm, and it hit me. I'm going to need to look professional. Not business casual, but business BUSINESS. The kind you get down to.
You'd think I would have thought about it last week, when I was trying on clothes at a little boutique downtown. There was a really fancy dress that I wanted to try on and I passed, saying that I'd have nowhere to wear it. T thought better of it, and set me straight, saying that there will be benefits to attend and donations to suggest to those who can afford it. The professional side of this whole thing I'm going to grad school for did not even cross my mind, since the fancy dress was sparkling at me.
I didn't buy it, or even try it on, since I got a little shocked from THE FUTURE. And I will admit to a minor amount of defeatism, since I don't think I did very well on my midterm. However, I think I did better than I thought I did a few hours ago. But I am feeling better about it now, considering that I wouldn't be thinking of buying a suit for a career in the field if I thought I failed.
I don't want a job just sitting behind a desk, but I think I'd kick some ass in a suit.
