The Fateful Day Has Come

If I haven't already said this enough on this here blog, I am graduating this May! Saying I'm super excited is pretty much a huge understatement. I love school. I feel like the whole book learning, memorizing, homework finishing thing might be one thing I'm actually good at, but I'd be lying if I didn't confess to loving the idea of no homework, no group projects, no general classes about stuff I won't use (exhibit A: cereal science, ya, I took a class about what grains they stick in our cereal.), etc.

But by graduating I have to figure out how I will now use my newly acquired college knowledge skills to be useful to society, or ya know, at least give our bank account a boost.

So the resume has been drafted, the cover letters have been typed, and tomorrow I start being more assertive than I think I've ever been by walking into random school/school district offices to tell them how wonderful it would be if they would hire me! And if the whole working in a school thing doesn't work out, I'll start walking into lots of random places telling people to hire me for all of my obedient, loyal, friendly, (I just described a dog didn't I?) qualities that would add oh so much to their business.

I'm freaked out, excited, can't believe that I'm really already doing this.

Wish me luck!

(Maybe I should add that quality to my resume:)
