Real Life? What?

Tonight I applied for two real jobs. Not summer jobs. Not internships. Real, full-time, gotta pay the bills jobs. Is this really happening?

As you probably know from my last post I graduate in December. That means real life is quickly approaching. I am so ready for real life that I typed "fastly approaching" instead of quickly. But no worries, spell check hurriedly informed me that fastly is not actually a word.

....yea, English and grammar are not my forte. All of my friends know that I can't even speak it very well. I am always trying to make up new words. Sadly, they don't seem to catch on.

One day.

But anyways, back to my reason for writing this post - jobs.

I never thought I would be this stressed/freaked out applying for jobs. It's never been this difficult before. Now I have to actually consider if I would want to work for a company for more than a summer's length of time. Now I have to consider what I want to spend a significant amount of my time doing, where I want to be living, what benefits I'll be offered...

TALK ABOUT STRESSFUL!

I don't want to name the companies I've applied for specifically, but I can tell you that they are located in the Raleigh area and both involve the sales realm. I think I'd be pretty good at sales. I like to talk. Sales people get to talk. Good match? Who knows.

....what is this adult life? bills? what?

Also - one of the [two] jobs I applied for is to a company I met at the career fair at UNC this past week. The representatives I talked to were AWESOME and they made their company sound like the BOMB DIGITY. I liked them. I think they liked me. Fingers crossed that I at least score an interview from that interaction. YOU KNOW YOU WANT TO HIRE ME!
