The trials and tribulations of being unemployed

So, today the majority of my classmates are beginning their internships.  Unfortunately I am not.  I am still interviewing, looking and emailing WAY too many resumes.  I know something will come up.  Karma has to play out at some point, right?  Nonetheless it’s a stressful situation/humbling experience.  I am quickly learning that things don’t always work out how you want them to or how you plan.  However, I am trying (TRYING!) to take it all in stride.  And I have discovered that I have a lot more time to do things, while the rest of the world is at work.  Like spend embarrassingly large amounts of time on Facebook, watch ridiculously hilarious clips on You Tube and catch up on Perez, TMZ and X17.  Don’t judge though (says the Queen of judging), it’s only day one.  I have high hopes and ambitions for tomorrow, I may try and leave the house, before 3 pm! I will keep you all, loyal and sporadic readers, updated on my internship hunt.  Send me good vibes and comments :) Centennial CC and PR classmates; I hope you are all having a fantastic first day at your internships.  Best of luck to you all!

    Aww, this was really sweet, Aly.

    I wouldn’t worry if I were you, and I know you’re not. You have such a great attitude about the whole situation, and it’s going to pay off well soon enough.

    Good luck with the rest of your interviews! Keep me posted : )

    Hey Aly,

    I, like you, am still looking as well. I’m looking at it the same as you are. A lot can happen in two weeks, we just need to keep up the work and it’ll all pay off.

    This is why you need a plan B. Rearrange your options and expectations and keep going. You’ll get there just wait and see.
