I graduate in May... NEXT MONTH. I am going to officially be a college graduate with my Bachelor's degree. Can you give me a "hell yeah?!" HELL YEAH! It's okay, I like to cheer myself on... I am my own biggest fan, ya know.
Okay, so I have been thinking that I really need to figure out what I want to do with my life, career wise. I originally got into communications so that I could pursue a broadcasting career but then I thought, "hmmm... that is too hard" so I thought about public relations among a few other things. I couldn't quite wrap my head around anything.
A couple months ago, at work we started helping this guy who works for ABC 4. I got to talking to him and he told me that they were looking for interns and that they would love to have me there. I can't tell you how excited I was. *insert open mouthed excited face here* Broadcasting... the first reason I began this whole college thing. Well this internship was unpaid... that was okay with me.... it had to be for college credit... that was still okay with me..... University of Phoenix.... would not help me with this at all. I got the run around for a month and a half and was finally told that the school does not support any type of internships. WHAT??!!! Yeah, that is what I said too. LAME! So, my dreams of this internship at ABC 4 got crushed. Ugh.
I have begun to look for other internships and actual jobs that pertain to my degree. I have had no such luck with anything in the broadcasting industry just yet but I know I will. I just need that one small opportunity to get my feet wet and I will be good. So for now, I have been looking more toward the marketing side of my degree because that does interest me as well. I have applied to some jobs and a few internships the last couple weeks. I actually had an interview today with a digital marketing agency for a possible internship! Boo ya! I feel like it went quite well and hope to hear back from them with good news soon! I am also excited because I have another internship interview with another marketing company that I have been dying to interview with. Good things are coming my way, I feel it in my toes... or that could just be my new heels squishing them together numbing them, so honestly I can't really feel my toes. #thepriceofbeauty #ihatehashtagsbutnowusethem #iknowtheyarenotrelavantforablog #sueme
Job/internship searching is a bit frustrating and sometimes I feel like I am getting absolutely no where. But I am and I know that if I keep at it consistently I will find my break and get that dream "big-girl" job that I want.
Until next time,
Stay sober
P.S. I have started like 8 million (not an exaggeration) blogs. Let's see if this sticks this time. Here is to my 8 millionth "first" blog post! Cheers!
