Mmm...graduation
Last night I finished my last assignment of the semester. My last assisgnment of my last fall semester of college. Last Thursday I had my senior pictures taken and when they put the cap and gown on, oh I just wanted to wear it for real. All my cap and gown pictures have 100% sincere smiles. And I thought high school senioritis was bad!
~back to the current reality~
Tomorrow I turn in that infamous last project of the semester and then roll home to start my (insert fanfare music here) My New Job. That's right. No more Parkside.
I am now working at the Yankee Candle store in Exton Mall. It happened kind of as a fluke. Aaron and I went to the mall to apply for jobs and my mom asked us to pick her up some candles, so we went there. I just asked the guy if they were hiring, not really expecting him to say yes but he did. I filled out an application and they called me last week. On Friday I went home for an interview and to take this extensive critical thinking test and believe it or not, I actually passed.
So I start tomorrow at 2, which will mostly be spent filling out forms. I'm excited to get started. Actually, I'm just happy as hell that I found a job. I had gotten myself convinced that me getting a holiday job would be a precursor for me getting a real job after I graduate. If I could get a holiday job, I could get a real one. Now you and I both know that selling candles has absolutely NOTHING to do with producing television, but I figured if I could get a job in an area I have no experience in, then hopefully I could get a real job with something that I have lots of experience with. Makes sense, right?
As for my career at Parkside, I actually have Aaron to thank for putting the idea in my head to get a new job. The more he talked about me getting a new job, the more I realized that I wanted to. Sometimes a little change is good. (yes, I, Meg Drobniak said change is good) I'm want to have new experiences because in a few months, I'm going to have a whole shitload of new experiences, so I might as well ease myself into the change as early as possible. I'm really looking forward to this new job...
Now if only I got to wear a headset and play with cameras;-)
