Welcome To The Real World..... Or So They Say...


The day is almost here. This day is Graduation Day. A national holiday if you are a member of the Johnson clan. Currently, I am very excited, but extremely stressed out. Graduation is going to be bittersweet all the way around.

Besides school, I am doing a double internship for a company who is partnered with major movie studios and we handle all of the movie promotions. I would love to have a full-time position with this company, but it is harder than it seems. There aren’t any open positions available at the moment. With this company set aside, I am frantically looking for other options.

I have always been against living here in Oklahoma past college and I am determined to make it happen. I am not looking for jobs in this state so it makes the job search harder.

Everyone knows those people in their lives who dread going to their jobs. Those people who would rather fake their own death than go into work. I will not be one of those people. With this being said, I don’t want to take just any job.

With school coming to an end, it is very strange to think that I will never have to take quizzes or tests again. Everyone keeps asking me if I am excited, but honestly it hasn’t hit me yet that I am almost done. I am really on edge these days because I have sent out so many resumes and haven’t heard anything back. Seriously, it is actually hurting my feelings that companies are not calling me back. Do I just not look good on paper regarding my resume? Only time will tell.

I feel like I am on fast forward mode because the days are melting all together. I keep thinking to myself where did September go? Now it’s November? This is crazy. And now, graduation is coming up in a matter of weeks. Something will work out for me, but I don’t know what. I’ll figure it out. I always do.

After reading your blog, I have to say that you may be one of the most determined persons out there. It is so funny that you are against living in Oklahoma after graduation, I am the same way. Don't worry to much about those resumes. Someone once told me that for every 30 resumes you send out, you may get 1 response, and that doesn't mean an offer. But from your blog, you sound extremely determined, and it's people like you who make it. There are alot of ups and downs in life, with even more uncertainties, but like you said, i'm sure you will figure it all out. Good luck!
