So today, after an awesome meeting with Trevor where I left feeling with it and excited about our upcoming activities I applied for my first job. I felt so excited about it and really looking forward to hearing from these people. This school gave me the tingles, gave me good juju and made me want to just jump for joy. But life being life, the match was not made in educational heaven as I had hoped. Rejection. Let's just say it sucked. A little part of me felt heartbroken... ok let me be honest... a pretty big part of me felt that way. This is where having a strong family background and source of strength behind me really came in handy. I let myself feel the sad and acknowledge that this was a blow. But like all the times I have been rejected by high schools, colleges and whatever else I picked myself back up and got my giggles back on. This is just a little stumble on the train of life and I have every intention of continuing forward at full speed. The fact of the matter is that I'm 23, motivated and set on what I want my life to be, and I'm ready to start now. Those are both strengths and weaknesses and I intend on using them to my advantage every chance I get. Bring it on world... I'm ready for ya
PS song of the week: again, the lovely Adele "Turning Tables".... Adele... amazing...
Next time I'll be braver, I'll be my own savior...
I won't let you close enough to hurt me, no I won't ask you, just to desert me....
Em, I feel your pain. Applying to jobs that you are excited about, and then having it not work out is such an emotional roller coaster. I know that you already know this, but it will all work out, though the path might seem unclear at times. xoxo
