Interview

So, I have my first real job interview tomorrow.  I don't mean that I haven't had job interviews before, because I obviously have.  I've had multiple jobs in my life, but I haven't ever had an interview for a career, a full-time, long-term job.  WHOA.  I'm not sure how to feel about it all.  I think it's going to go well, I'm pretty good at the whole interview thing so I have some high hopes.  Plus, can you really go into an interview with the thought that you're not getting the job?  Just not happening.  Anyway... the interview is at a local, non-profit children's theater.  Now, I'm not looking to stay in the theatrical industry; however, I AM looking to stay in the marketing industry and this position is mainly a marketing position.  So, fingers crossed for me!  I'll let you know tomorrow afternoon how it went!

Blogging, or lack thereof

I've been exceptionally terrible lately about blogging, and there's really no excuse for it other than I haven't felt like it.  First off, I was SUPER busy with school up until the end of May of this year.  However, I GRADUATED!! I'm officially a college graduate with my BA in Psychology from CSU Monterey Bay!  I'm so happy to have that paper I've worked so hard for (except it's still in the mail...).  The only problem with graduating is that now I need a full-time job and there aren't too many out there.  I've reworked my resume and cover letter and sent them out to quite a few companies, and no call backs yet.  It's not a good feeling knowing that people aren't interested in me.  In fact, it's downright depressing.  What's compounding the issue is that I've recently had to move back in with my dad... don't get me wrong, I love my dad, but when we live together we don't get along at all.  So, I'm trying to stay hopeful on the job front!  Other than that, I'm just hanging out.  I work part-time as a nanny here in Salinas and I'm trying to save every penny I can from that (which is hard, because I tend to use retail therapy to make me feel better about my life...oops).  Well, I'll be back in some other posts soon (because I have nothing better to do, other than apply for jobs!)
