I finish school in less than one month, and I am currently lacking in the following aspects:
Motivation
Inspiration
Patience
Yesterday I was in my third-year Mass Com class and for three hours had to stare at the ass-crack of the girl sitting in front of me. This brought to mind a thought I have had more than once throughout my time at Carleton: where’s a sling-shot when you need one?
I mean really, pull up your goddamn pants.
What a hoe.
Anyway, moving on: I’m looking for a job. This is not fun. The anxiety, the waiting, the scrutinizing over your resume to make sure every single detail is just right. Plus the potential guilt of talking someone into hiring me when all I’m going to do is quit in eight months. I say potential because I haven’t been put anywhere near that situation as of yet, and thus wouldn’t know whether I would actually feel guilty (I’m leaning towards not, but you never know, I might have a soul).
I’ve applied to jobs all over the government, media outlets galore, through agencies (I have a meeting tomorrow which I’m not sure is actually for a job, but might just be to sign up for the agency through which I applied for the job…) and even at the BBC, since I recently found out I’m eligible for British citizenship. Apparently the UK changed the rules about the number of generations citizenship can extend to from one to two. Kudos Nan, way to be British, I ‘preciate it.
Oh, and speaking of work, did I mention how retarded I am? Not in general, I mean, there’s a specific example of my retardedness: I agreed to work for the three busiest weeks of the semester. That’s right, I’ve spent every Wednesday and Friday all semester sitting on my ass, collecting dust, and March hits and I decide THAT’S the best time to make myself useful. Never mind that I have assignments, essays and oral presentations coming out the wazoo, I can totally spend two full days a week in a government office making labels and organizing file cabinets. And you know what? For fun let’s throw in Monday afternoons too! Sleep is for losers anyway.
Kill me. Kill me now.
Are we there yet?
