In the Homestretch...

I'm NOT going to post about the fact that graduation is coming up and this is my last week of Salve classes ever...because that is literally all that is on my mind and I think I would stress my blog out if I wrote about that. I will make sure to have one last college-student post...later.

There ARE mannnny things I am excited about post-graduation, however. Summer is definitely my favorite time of the year, regardless of how fun college is.

Here are some things I am absolutely looking forward to...

Flip flops EVERYDAY

Lay Out and Take Out days with my Triangle

Not having to cook for myself...

And of course...spending 6 weeks at my favorite place on Earth

The Job Search is ON!

I officially attended my first Career Fair today!
I have been anticipating this event for a few months now, never thought I'd make it, and definitely did not think my nervous system would be able to handle it!!
Multiple interviewing in one day is the epitome of things that make me most nervous in life.

Alas, I had a small panic attack for the few days prior, finally decided on an appropriate outfit, got all my resumes printed, portfolio put together, and all my belongings organized. I showed up, interviewed with a few schools, and called it a day. I left in one piece and feeling pretty good.

I am starting to feel hopeful. Jobs are starting to be posted and I am feeling like there is hope. As of next week I will have officially applied to 6 jobs. It's definitely a start! Some I would LOVE more than others, but I will absolutely go where anyone will hire me!

My fingers will be crossed until September! Keep yours crossed for me!

One Month

The fact that I'm graduating in one month has actually started to feel real lately.
I am really starting to realize all the people here that have become part of my life and how many people I am actually going to miss seeing every day, or even just running into on campus. I am appreciating all the close relationships I've made with the professors here that I am so grateful for.
I have made a personal promise to myself to not get stressed out or overwhelmed about anything in the next few weeks regardless of the amount of work I have or things I need to accomplish in a short amount of time. I usually let this time of the year get the best of me and I just can't afford to let that happen this year!
I am just going to enjoy the next 4 weeks as much as I can because there will never be another time in my life like this!

Here's to making the most of the last few remaining days! Carpe Diem.
