My Spirit is not Lost yet...
Well, it's official...I have a job interview on Monday for the College Advisor position. It's at 3pm on Monday, so if u happen to think of me around that time, I'd appreciate it. I am so not jaded anymore because the hope that I buried months back about finding a job has revived. Yay! The other copywriting position with Hearts & Minds...I dont know. I mean, I set an appointment to go to an info workshop this Sunday to learn more about the program. But should I go even though this internship is unpaid? I need to make money right now, but the experience I would get from this job would be awesome. But u know what, I think it ultimately comes down to the fact that money is more important right now than a little experience without any money supplementing it. So I think I am going to cancel the appointment with them tomorrow. Blarg! I have eased my guilty conscience a little because I still apply to publishing companies and stuff: W. W. Norton & Company, Wright Group, HarperCollins, and more. So, in essence, I am still looking for that great literary job, but for right now, I am going to go ahead with this College Advisor position, wait to see if I get the job, and see where it leads me if I am hired.
Work today was ok. Two of my kids, twins called Jonathan and Eric, are really frustrating me because there is two of them, and they always seem to be in the trouble bubble somehow. They cant keep their hands to themselves, and they're always quick to defend themselves if they are implicated in a situation. They're so intelligent though. Blarg! I still love 'em. Now, it's down to three more days left of the fall cycle of the program. I need to tell my site manager that I aint comin' back, so I could go along and finalize anything that needs to be done. She'll be surprised, I think, but oh well. This was fun while it lasted, and I am ready to move on to something more organized. I'll miss the kiddos and the staff, especially Ms. Shavers.
The cute UPS guy came yesterday, but he came before I got back home from work. Oh well. I need to live more in the moment, and not try to complicate or overanalyze situations (thanks littlehooli & malindamichelle). Sometimes, little slices of delicious fun are given to us, and we just need to bite into it, chew, and savor every little morsel of Vegas-style hedonism).
