Two weeks before my last year begins, and I haven't scheduled anything. I suppose I really should get to it, but I've got a lot on my mind:
1. I finished my internship (which was at home, rather than at the city I go to school). My supervisors think I've done a pretty good job, but I don't know if that praise is ever going to be heard by the firms I'm applying to now. I have to think of someway to get these recommendations in.
2. I've contacted so many firms, but almost none seem like they will give me a chance. Maybe I haven't been as direct about how bad I want the job as I need to, so I'm drafting up new emails this week.
3. I haven't spoken really to anyone back at school; I've been busy focusing on a job. As much as I'd like to wish it weren't true, I know this job search is going to affect my social life...a lot. Especially with the economy the way it is and my resume the way it is. I'm going to need a couple lucky breaks, and I'm going to need to work my butt off if I want to be happy at the end of this year.
Oh well. I guess after I get a job I'll forget my troubles ever existed.
