"summer"progress report

so many questions. so here are some answers.

What is your current situation with coop?

In terms of coop, i have not been able to find a job placement. Many of you may know that i had put a lot of hope in being able to work at World Vision this summer. Unfortuneately, I recieved a call from them the other day informing me that the position i applied for had been filled by someone who is actually in marketing.

So have you been applying to different jobs? Have you been looking? you know, you can't jsut sit there and do nothing about it.

As a matter of fact, yes. i have been looking. I've applied to many, many jobs on jobmine. but i have also been contemplating dropping out of the coop program as i evaluate the benefits and the fallbacks of it.

So if you don't do coop, what then?

As of last night, i had decided that i would sign up for some courses and get a part time job.... decide about coop in the fall. However, today, another opportunity for a job arose. Therefore, i sent in a cover letter and resume and I am waiting to see how that plays out.

Oh. so exactly what are you doing? why don't you make any decisions about your life?

Contrary to popular belief, i do try. and i am struggling like hell to figure out things about my life and about this term. i'm frustrated because it seems like whenever i finally "figure something out" the opposite happens. Change is shaking me up. However, i am determined to maintain composure and ya know... solve my own problems... be independant and goal oriented.
all that jazz.

any other questions?
