Tomorrow is the BIG day!
I am excited and extremely nervous about my interview/presentation tomorrow morning. I've practiced my presentation a few times and I'm at 3.5 minutes (the requirement was between 3-4 minutes) which is really good I think. I feel comfortable practicing it out loud here at home, but I'm sure I'll get...

GETTING NERVOUS!
My big interview is on Monday morning and I'm starting to get really nervous about it. I hate not knowing what will happen, especially because this is a completely different sort of job than anything I've ever applied to before. I am really stressing out about the presentation I have to make. 3-4...

I Need to Ace that Interview!
Next monday is going to be a critical day for me. I'm interviewing with a great art school...and I desperately need a good job! I guess I'm a little over-anxious about it because not only is there an interview, but I have to give a 3-4 minute presentation on any subject that I like. It sounded easy...

I Think This Could Be It : Part Three
Ok, I have made it to the next phase. I am meeting the director of the program I applied to on Monday the 20th at 10am. The thing is, it looks like a group session. I guess that makes sense though. Why would he travel to meet with only one candidate when he could meet with several? It just makes the...

I think this could be it: Part Two
I wrote recently about a job that I applied for that I am really excited about. In fact, I would have to say without a doubt it's the one job out of many that I applied for in the past month that I actually WANT. Well, late last night I decided to check my e-mail before heading up to bed. Wouldn't...

Highs and Lows.
It has been a month since I left Ch. 7 and became unemployed. I feel sort of caught between two extreme emotions: happiness and worthlessness. I feel happy because I'm home with my animals, taking care of the house and getting some much needed 'me' time for the first time in years. Then, I also feel...

I think this could be it.
I just hope I get a chance at this one at least. I applied for a job that posted today with a nationally renowned art school in the admissions department. I'd be doing most of my work from HOME and then travelling to area high schools for presentations and recruiting. Now, I remember meeting with a...

Writing a Kids' Book?
Well, I've decided to shelf my love story idea for a bit...it's just not coming together the way I had originally hoped. I don't want to give up on the idea, but I need to think about it some more. I don't know if I want to admit it to myself at this point, but I might not be that good at writing...

Trying To Write Again.
So, I joined this writing group that Roofpig13 started here in the Buffalo area. I was excited at first because I thought it might jump start my creative writing, something that has seriously fizzled out in the past few years. Well, I tried writing the beginning to a love story I had conceptualized...

What the heck? When did my parent's get so mellow?
Last night during dinner, I was expecting some sort of argument or negative comments at least about my current status of unemployment. When I first told them, they were shocked and upset, but last night they acted like I did the right thing and were happy for me. I was confused. I started to...
