Job interviews are the devil
I really hate doing interviews. I think it comes from the fact that I don't like talking about myself. I hate talking about my strengths because I always feel like it's boasting. And I don't easily admit to my faults so I hate talking about those as well. But the one I had today went well. She's doing my reference checks in the next couple of days, but she said that unless those went really badly she was really interested in hiring me on to the student temp pool at the university. I'm not sure how well temporary jobs are going to work at paying my bills, but it's the only job offer I've gotten all summer, despite the 50 or so jobs I've applied for so we'll see. I'm still waiting to here back from the people doing the hiring for the library positions. The competition just closed at the end of last week, so I'm not expecting a call or email until next week at the earliest. I kind of want either one of those jobs to come through instead of the temp one. It would be simpler, and I would be guaranteed a pay cheque every two weeks.
I'm dropping the International Law class I registered for. I don't need it to graduate, and unless I can an A- or an A it won't really improve my GPA. And considering I'm would have been trying to work part time and complete four courses, it would have been extremely unlikely that I would have gotten that grade. And this way I can afford to pay tuition. I still need to figure out how I'm going to buy groceries and pay rent for September, but something will come together. Hopefully.
I've got to finish (start) my final for my International Organization course tonight/tomorrow. Then tomorrow night and Thursday are for studying for my Humanities final that is on Friday afternoon. Friday night and Saturday morning are Criminology studying with Katelin. The CRIM exam on Saturday is my last one and then I get three full weeks off (hopefully working two of those) before the new semester starts.
I keep looking at courses for the Spring. I'm not going to take any, but I keep looking to see what the Political Science Department is offering. I think it's because I'm nervous about finishing here. I don't really want to because then it's grad school and then I have to enter the real world and get a job. That's fucking terrifying. But I also don't want to be one of those people that never leaves university. It already feels like I've been here forever and a day so yeah I definitely need to get out of here. And grad school will be different. I think.
