Now that things are starting to happen around here, I feel like I have more to talk about. I had my first job interview today and it went fantastic! I felt pretty confident going in and through the interview. They seemed to like me, felt comfortable with me and loved my portfolio. THEN they told me they received 300 resumes for the position. I'l refrain from using profanity, but HOLY COW! This is the reality of the job market in the US, moreso in Boston, even moreso in the Graphic Design field. I'm screwed. I have friends I graduated with that are still looking for the same type of job after 6 months of looking. It just so happens I was the first one they interviewed, so the good thing is that I didn't have to follow anyone's act. But still, 300 resumes. Eep!
Yesterday was also quite eventful. I went to my new apartment for the first time to drop off some furniture. Though it was covered in crud and crap everywhere, I could visualize it being a home. Finally, after a year of mobility, not having a permanent address, forwarding mail to my parent's house and giving out my cell number instead of my home number, I have a home... in Beacon Hill no less. I feel so hosh posh. So I move in officially on Tuesday. I would do it on Monday, but I have to go to stupid court for a stupid ticket because a stupid person at the stupid DMV made a stupid mistake processing my stupid citation a year ago. I love it when completely law abiding citizens have to go to court because of someone else's stupidity. BACK IN THE US of A!
