Been spending the past two weeks at my mom's house. Oh mom. It has actually been quite the "vacation." My dog has a yard to play in, mom buys the groceries, we have been to the beach twice (a 3 hour drive each way), and I have been busy planting different vegetables at the nature center where she works. I have also been able to do things that I want to do. Sleep when I want to sleep, go out with old friends, drink bloody marys at all hours, and work on my resume.
Re-formatting one's resume is pretty exhausting...
I spent about 4 hours the other day doing just that. Changing things, deleting things no longer that relevant, and adding more college accomplishments... realizing that I have worked about 5,000 different part time jobs for all different kinds of companies was pretty distressing because I'm only 23. I guess when you get your first job at 17, it's somewhat understandable.
However, it's better than not having any work experience. I chose my most recent 4-5 to keep. Lucky for me, they all have the potential to be good references.
Applied to a number of jobs via Indeed.com - mostly paid internships that require 10-15 hours per week... on top of 15 hours of school and a possible morning job (3:30am) at the Kolache shop down the road from my apartment... and getting in a regular workout routine so I don't become a total fa-tass.
This year is definitely going to be interesting. Work, graduating, working out, hopefully working for Red Bull, &trying to keep busy. Good thing I have a friend working at Starbucks.
