Current mood: 
confused
Why do people advertise that they need help and then don't hire you right away? I've been applying at places for over six weeks now, am I that bad? I know I'm over-educated for all of the posititons, but damn, I was looking for Christmas money, not a life-long career! What really irks me is that several of the places still have help wanted signs. Am I that big of a scumbag? Marcus tried to reassure me that the management at these places is probably imcompetent (like where I work) and he's probably right, but it still does wonders for my ego, y'know? I even applied at a scrapbooking store two weeks ago because I heard a thing on KOSI's job openings one morning. She called last week and said she'd set up interviews this week. Well, week's almost over and not a peep. Guess she doesn't need help that bad, huh? So much for finding a job for extra Christmas cash. Even if I found a job today, I doubt much that I would get a paycheck in time. *sigh* Oh, well. I tried.
So, now I'm going full time into the "real job" search. I've got ten weeks left of school and then I'm done. I'm concentrating my efforts on finding a job in the field. A friend of mine who has been interviewing extensively lately has been told my most of the companies that they're not actually hiring now, but will do so after the first of the year. Yay!!!! Since there are only 16 days left of this suck-ass year, I'm optimistic.
Speaking of school, I am definitely dropping out of the bachelor program. We made it official a couple of days ago. It was really refreshing for a school to hold my bests interests above their own. The only reason I really wanted to stay in school is to hide from the world and stay close to my friends. I'm just going to have to make the effort to not lose contact after I get out. So, after the winter break, just nine more weeks for me and I'm done.
Today is the day I'm going to decorate the tree we got last Saturday. How fun! I love getting all my cool ornaments out and reminiscing out how I acquired each one. So, I guess that means I better quit sitting here and get cracking!
