Time for an update...
So I'm beginning week three of being a college graduate. I've got a shiny new degree, that holds in it my shiny Bachelors of Science. And what do I have to show for it? No job.
Sadly, my first round of applications was a bust. :( So second round of applications goes out this week. I'll be spending tonight filling those suckers out. All like 7 of them. I never thought getting a job as a zoo keeper would be so hard. I thought I would be a shoe in. Good gawd, was I wrong.
So for now, I'm still settling into my new place, aka, Ed's condo. It's nice, I like it, though I wish I could move more of my stuff in. Not really enough room. I had to get rid of so much of my things. Gave most of it away to friends or Good WIll. At least it all went somewhere beneficial. All the same, it was hard. Even my adorable little car... who was on the very last leg of her life, had to be donated. Rawhide Boys Ranch, treat her well! She was my baby. :( I promised she'd be pampered by boys if she just lived until the school year. She kept her word, so I hope I kept mine.
I guess I'm just hitting a bit of a depression. I feel useless with no job. Ed says that I should take my time and get a job I enjoy, but I don't think I can. I need to start making money. So I can pay for car insurance, so I can visit my sister and my brother, so I can go and start looking at areas for my wedding. And talking to churches. I need to get moving on this stuff.
Alrighty. I'm gonna finish up this cup of tea and get going on those applications.
Is it weird I don't feel any different? Shouldn't I *FEEL* like a graduate?
