One step closer to the BIG step
I know there is still a little more than half a semester left in my undergraduate career, however I still can't help but feel the push to find a job. A lot of my friends have already secured jobs for next year and now I'm really starting to feel the pressure as well. It's crazy to think that in just a couple of months, for the first time in 18 years, I will not be going to school next year. Life for me has been pretty good and consistent. There were a certain number of things that I knew always would happen, the sun would rise and set, my mom would nag me about having a dirty room, and I would go to school. Now that is not the case and I don't know what to do. Well really I do, but still the thought of going out into the great unknown is scary and exhilarating at the same time.
I am applying for several year long internships through the organization "The Student Conservation Association." Now I'm applying for these interships because they offer me the opportunity to travel and live outside of the VA area. The SCA actually will provide me housing and a living stipend for the year, so I have taken this opportunity and applied for internships in Florida, Colorado, Georgia, Mississippi, and even Hawaii. I don't know when I'll find out about these but then again I'm not in the biggest rush right now either, I can always just bum off my parents for the time being (just kidding Mom).
Besides the internship I've also applied for several jobs mostly in the VA/DC Metro area near where I live. No harm in living at home and saving up money so I can get my own place sometime soon. This is just one option right now, but we'll see where it takes me.
Well that's all for now, Hope everyone has a great day!
