To be quite frank (and this depends on each person)...
1.) I am dirt poor.
2.) I've been filling out resumes like no other mother....
3.) I am running out of ideas of what to say on my resumes. I kinda just want to put "Pokemon Master" under my skills section, but I want it to sound more professional.
4.) I feel like I've changed so much in the last 4 years of my life, that home feels like a shrunken old sweater. And I just look awkward and out of place.
5.) I feel like a whiny teenager and I want to just pinch myself every time I think "I feel like no one understands me." Truth is....most of you probably do.
6.) I think I've browsed all the online job boards out there.
7.) If I hear the question "Do you have a job yet?" one more time, I think I might crawl to the nearest corner and proceed to cry in a fetal position. Or rip all my hair out.
8.) What the hey? Where'd all my friends go?
9.) I wish they taught us in school how to boost your confidence when you STILL haven't heard back from the place that you applied to. And interviewed at. And called back.10.) I'm bumming off my parents still. Its highly uncomfortable.
11.) Every time I call a place...and I hear that ringing....and they answer...I get so scared out of my mind and I see myself just hanging up. But somehow, I manage to sound cool and professional.
12.) The best part about interviews? I can wear the same outfit to different places. And no one will know.
13.) I have become a frugal crazy lady. A money Nazi. A Tight wad...with my wallet.
14.) I'm seeing these "YAY! I can't wait to go back to school" posts and I think to myself, 'Oh dear gosh...take me with you.' (I'm sure that will go away when I see homework posts...and then I'll just laugh and laugh and laugh ;) heehee)
15.) Money sucks.
16.) I miss my college friends like crazy.
17.) Money sucks.
18.) Rent would suck. (Did I mention I'm still living with my parents?)
19.) I look like a baby in professional get-up.
20.) The best thing about interviews is that I can be myself. I've learned from experience that if you think too hard...you will more than likely mess up and freeze.
21.) Cereal is still my best friend.
22.) I don't know what to do in my free time...so I apply to another job.
23.) My eye twitches when I think that I am now a part of the unemployed population. And that scares me.
24.) I feel...stuck.
25.) I am seriously grateful for my parents. I don't know where I'd be without there encouragment, love and support...and their home haha.
26.) I love having home cooked meals again.
27.) I do love having free time...but I freak out sometimes. Like...I pace my floor wondering what I'm gonna do with my life.
28.) I am still quite sassy in the late hours and I am sad because I miss being sassy with my roommates.
29.) I still don't know what I want to be when I grow up...and I'm a grown up.
30.) This post grad life is an awkward stage.
32.) I skipped 31.
33.) My parents have a bigger social life than I do.
34.) Older person: "Oh you've graduated? Bwhahaha welcome to reality."
35.) I'm surprised you made it to 35.
36.) I get tired at 10 now.
37.) Although this feels like the hardest stage of life...God has still been good and has showered His blessings like no other on my soul.
Those are my late night thoughts. That's a part of my life. But on a more serious note. I know God has a plan for me. As the great Sheldon would say (Big Bang Theory anyone?), its kinda like Schrodinger's cat (click here). Or if you prefer Forrest Gump? Life is like a box of chocolates. You don't know what you're gonna get. Open up those boxes of opportunity, people. Go for it. We're young. Don't give up. You have a lot to offer the world. Use those talents.
Most importantly...now is the perfect time to learn what it means to wait on the Lord.
