Job Interview

I just got back from my job interview and I think it went really well. I pulled up to the elementary school and there were kids playing outside. The energy of the place felt great (if kids are around, usually the energy feels good). The principle and the vice principle both interviewed me. They traded off questions. I feel like I came across eloquent, mature, and pleasant. I really hope I get the position. It even sounds like I would be able to get some benefits if I got the job! I hope I hope I hope...I have done all that is in my power to do- The rest is up to the Universe now.


The job search is a really depressing discouraging process right now. I really feel for all the university graduates trying to build a life for themselves- I'm one of them! I'm thankful I don't have children to support or loans to pay off; many recent graduates are in a much more difficult place. This definitely wasn't what I expected when I decided to go to college. I never thought It'd be this hard or this frustrating...I never thought I'd be graduating in the middle of a recession. I am hoping to get any job...most of them I could have easily gotten three years ago without a B.A. I know my studying and my work is not in vain. I'm more intelligent-I'm a better person- and I know one day my degree will pay off. I hope it pays off with this job.

I would love to work in a school again. I think it is just going to solidify my desire to get my teaching license. I hope things fall into place soon. It doesn't helps one's confidence to spend weeks looking for a job...I can only do what is in my power to do- The rest is up to the Universe. I don't mean this blog to be a "poor me" blog. I am trying to stay positive and I'm trying to work with what I've got! These are the things on my mind- and I know I'm not the only one thinking them.

Hopefully my next post will be about my new job!
