T Minus Ten Days

Jump to Comments

Holy mac and cheese.  Ten days separate me from the real world, and between you and me, the real world is not looking promising.  For once in my life, I have no plans, and I am terrified.  I have been busting my butt trying to find a job — something, anything — and nothing is on the time schedule I need, which is urgent because hi, no job by graduation means I’ll be back in Indianapolis, and no, that is NOT what I need.

On the bright side, I have my second interview with a place in Memphis tomorrow.  I am nervous.  After the job interview experience from Hell in Nashville (and noting the unnerving similarity between the companies’ job postings on Hot Jobs or Career Builder or what have you), I am not looking forward to spending all day doing this whole shindig.  I’m trying to keep positive, though.  Maybe I won’t have to sit around and watch people sell things.  I don’t know.  This is kind of my only shot right now, though, so let’s hope it works out.  Or that something else will … and soon, too.

In other news, I am feeling very anxious.  Even if I do find my perfect first job, like, yesterday, I have no money and nowhere to live and nothing is planned out and will someone please contact my primary care physician and have him write me a freaking prescription for Xanax because I am going to have a panic attack?  I know it’s all going to work out, but when?  I am getting impatient. 

But on the really bright side of things, I have ten more days of being a college student, and they’re bound to be awesome.
