Fall Break
Fall break went by fast. I went down to TN with 2 of my friends. We stayed at one of their parents' house. Her folks live in Kingsport, so it's close to the mountains. Her home is located on a ridge and it overlooks the town. Her parents cooked for us and they took us out hiking, boating and biking. This trip was what I needed. This week, I plan to seriously start looking for a job. I've found some postings for assistanat archivist positions in NY and DC, but I'm not too keen on living there. I really want to look out west. Why? Because I've never lived there and I want to go outside my comfort zone. To start fresh. I have friends on the west coast, so I won't feel too isolated. The hardest thing is being far from my family, but they promise to visit regularly because they love it out there.
Must add: I'm petrified of the job hunt. Am I going to find a job that I'm qualified for? Can I find a job in the ideal location? Will there be interesting jobs to apply for? What if I don't find something right after I graduate? I don't want to live at home! Nor do I want to stay in Ann Arbor (actually, I wouldn't mind at this point because I've got friends here). These are my fears. And I think the best way to approach them is to just send in my resume (after I have it revised by Career Services) and wait. And keep sending my resume until I hear from someone.
