    ^That's awesome! All I want is to love what I do. That's really important to me.

    Good luck!!!
    With that out of the way, and at the risk of sounding like a negative Nelly, it might take you quite a while in the work world to find something you love. Right now, right after graduation, you might just want to start building experience, whether you love the job(s) or not. Otherwise you could be looking for a job for loooooong time. You could get lucky and land something you love now, and of course I hope you do, but that's not usually how it works is all.
    Thanks to all that have wished me luck!

    And yes, I totally understand what you mean PJ_Soul! Sometimes it's a hard pill to swallow, but a good thing to remember. Especially as strangely, most people I know from HS/college have been doing quite well regarding employment. Lots of people in terrific jobs already, it's crazy to see! Was that way for my mom, too (knew what she wanted to do as a kid, went through school, grad school, great jobs all her life) so sometimes it's hard when she has such high expectations for me.

    wishing it wasn't pouring rain in Vancouver so that I could enjoy going out and wandering around.

    Go for a walk in the woods at Stanley Park. It's best in the rain! :)

    I don't have the right gear for that, I'm soaked just from my trip to New Town, but I got siopao so success :)

    You never really had to begin with.


    Sometimes it's not the song that makes you emotional it's the people and things that come to your mind when you hear it.

    missing someone pretty bad right now. i just wonder how she is.

    studying for this certification exam i take tomorrow. getting test anxiety...

    day 5 without facebook. it is amazing how quiet life is when you get away from the social media.

    Good luck for your test! And I hope you get to hear from the person you are missing so bad :)
    thanks! i passed it! 3 more letters after my name...

    nah, i won't hear from her ever again. she was just someone who used to give me a lot of strength when i was stressed out, like i was over this exam. now that i passed it i don't need to hear from her.

    congratulations on your anniversary!! 2 years already... :)

    hey RK, no, my cat is dying of cancer and she's just withering away in front of us and we have decided to put her down this weekend and it's killing me. She's my baby...I've had her for a 3rd of my life, and I'm just having a horrid time dealing with it....

    Congratulations to you as well!

    I know, two years does sound crazy. But time flies when you're having fun :D And renovating a house =))

    PJSiren, hang in there. Think good thoughts. I'm sending you hugs.

    Samjam - I did an internship after I graduation (I was actually officially unemployed for the time of the internship, half a year, but used the time), and things fell into place, so a job came out of that. I was basically learning by doing and in the end helped building the whole editorship department. I stayed with the company for 7 years, through good and bad times. I learned a lot, but now I am happy I am on my own. I don't know how it is with internships over here, are they paying? Maybe something like that would be a good start...

    oh sweetie! I'm so sorry to hear that! Please don't be too hard on yourself, you are doing what is best for her right now. Think of all the good times you shared with her, she had a good life with you. Give her extra snuggles and big hugs when you get home tonight.

    That's a very pretty song! I've had a really hard time with music all week, umpteen million songs that don't usually make me cry have made me cry...
