Unemployed

Well, I am almost done my undergrad career... and things have not gone as planned so far.

Perhaps it was a pipe dream but... the plan was that I would have a "real job" lined up by the time I was finishing up my last exam ... then I would be able to find a place to live ... so I would be out on my own (renting of course), and I would have a "real job."
I sent out probably somewhere around 50 resumes... I have lost count... and I was feeling quite discouraged. Then I had 2 possible jobs within one week. I had a phone call where I set up an interview followed by a telephone interview for an internship in Toronto.
Both interviews ended up going well... or so I thought..... I didn't get either job. I had gotten my hopes up for something to come from them... I had even gone so far as to get all stressed out because I didn't know which one I would pick if I had to choose. Clearly that was silly!!
Now I have begun my search and application process to some "not so real jobs" - aka more like summer type jobs, or jobs that aren't really what I went to school for.
At first I was kind of bummed to be doing this... but I guess graduating at 21 leaves me some room to figure it all out. I guess I don't NEED something right away.

I had always heard of people having lots of trouble finding jobs after they graduate... and I had seen it happen to friends... yet I still had my hopes up that I would be able to change this and get a job right out of the gates.
As of yet this has not happened.
I guess the story continues... and we will wait and see!!!

Update you soon

House of Dereon

While on my imaginary shopping spree... I also found some dresses I would like








The perfect shoe

I am very disappointed to say that I have been looking for the perfect shoe for a while and I have yet to find it... let me explain

I think that the perfect shoe... the one set of heels that every girl needs... is a cream coloured, closed-toe stiletto. I have searched and searched and cannot find a store that sells one... just a plain, patent, cream, closed toe shoe... not white... not bedazzled, or with a zebra print on it.. just cream!

I went to Aldo a week or so ago and they had the shoe! it was right there at the front of the store... but not in my size... only in 6 or 9... I was very disappointed but I was excited that it was there, and it was new so it would be around for a while!

However, I was just on the Aldo website and the shoe is nowhere to be found. I don't know if it is just missing from the website (although this is basically impossible because they have every shoe ever made on there) orrrr if they are just sold out everywhere? I'm not sure

Sadly... my hunt will continue.

Hopefully I can find the shoe before I get a job... which is hopefully soon... because it is the perfect work shoe! I need it for my first day! (It's either that or a hot pink one!)

I know I should clearly be studying right now... but I just felt the need to go on a shoe hunt.

I hope school will pay off and I can get a job that will be able to support my shoe addiction!

Severely behind

Well it's that time of year again.... exams, papers, etc.
I have been severely lacking in my activity on here, and on twitter... although I have been up to date on my facebook use! Facebook is the best procrastination tool... and then comes tv!!!

I am making progress though on my essay that is due on Wednesday... still not enough progress but that will come tonight or tomorrow I guess!

I have a few more essays and then some exams to study for before I am completely done my undergrad! It's going to go by very fast, but at the same time the studying is going to go by painstakingly slow!
Bare with me as I will not be on here much... I guess its not like I have recently... but I will do my best to post some of my funny videos, etc. that I find during my procrastination!!!
