10:40 p.m. on Easter Sunday and I am in my usual Sunday spot: The Academic Computer Center on campus. This is my favorite place when I actually really truly need to get things done. I'm still job hunting as always. I am kind of holding off on the whole moving to California right after graduation idea for the time being. For one, I just don't have the means right now, and I honestly don't think I'm quite ready yet. My best friend gave me a little assurance tonight when we were talking about it. She said just because I don't move out there right after graduation, it doesn't mean that I never will. I have been in the state of mind that if I am going to do anything, I need to do it right after graduation or else I never will. I have come to realize that I really don't need to rush into things. I know I will eventually find a job, and I know that I will do what is best for me in the end.
I am currently searching for jobs in the metro area of Minnesota. I have decided to apply for admissions representative positions at various community and technical colleges in the area. I have a few friends that graduated from Mankato that do it now and absolutely love it. I am also applying for various sales and marketing positions in the area. Only one call back so far, but I am staying positive and maintaining a sense of excitement for my future.
Less than a month until graduation! AHHH!! I am so excited, but until then I have so much on my plate. Better get started!

Jayme,
ReplyDeleteI wish I could follow you to California. It's absolutely beautiful there. I can totally see you being a native. :) Besides that point, I feel your frustrations. It's so hard to figure out where you want to be, where you want to live and what you want to do. It's like all these millions of questions (we just prefer to avoid) comes rushing at us all at once! Don't get discouraged! If you keep your head held high and remember how talented you are and how much you have to offer to the PR world...someone else will realize it too. (Well, I should say someone else who has the power to hire you. :) I believe in you...I just can't offer you a job!) But you're right, it's probably smart to start a little savings and then follow your heart to the West Coast. Who knows? Maybe I'll follow you out there someday!!
Congratulations on your call back! I've also been focused on the metro area, but I just applied for a position in California. If you ever decide to move out there, and if I get the job, you'll have a familiar face nearby.
