[Feeling] [Thoughtful]

Some things I've learned... (always a work in progress)

a) Some people that you try to force friendships with may not end up as true friends.

- I think friendships, like any relationship, should just happen. You shouldn't have to make that big of a deal out of trying to be someone's friend. When you try to force a friendship, it takes some of the meaning out of it. It doesn't matter how often you tell yourself that the two of you are friends. Repetition won't make it work. Neither will being fake.

b) Girls, sometimes you're just one of the guys, so accept it and enjoy it.

-I got a big slap in the face last week. I was told that I had always and will always be like a brother to one of my best friends, of whom i had this huge crush on for like a year. With those words, it was as if I had seen the brightest damn light in history. It was a good realization though. Because, now that I know and accept this fact, I haven't had as much fun with him and his girlfriend in ages. There's no awkward tension in my brain anymore. (cause it's always in my head)

SO

That's what I've learned this week. I'll try and keep this an ongoing thing. It's important to learn something new everyday; about life, love, friendship, and yourself. Practice learning everyday without sounding like a PBS special. Amen.

Thanks Kelsie!

[Feeling] [Exhausted]

Man what a week. And how it's flown. Just one more long day of classes and another of work.

Today I went to the Communications Job and Internship fair. There were a LOT of companies with TONS of positions. I gave out at least 10 resumes and these were just to advertising companies. I met this really nice guy in particular, Noe, who is a creative at a local ad agency in town. He felt a little lost, just like me, because they said, "hey you wanna represent your department at a job fair today?" And he said ok, and thus it was his first job fair as well. So we had a nice chat, the nicest one out of all the companies I spoke with today. He was also the cutest recruiter. heehee, sorry i have a thing for cute hispanics.
Hopefully, my resume will fall into the right hands and I will have a secure internship or even job by the time I graduate. There's a lot of emailing resumes and cover letters ahead of me, but I'm glad I have the information and opportunity to do so. And if something doesn't work out, I guess I'll have my current job to work from until I decide what I want to do with my life. Scary and exciting, all rolled into one.
Well, I'm really tired, and I'm actually done with homework at a decent hour.

GUTS
You are GUTS. You love to be "xtreme"
and you love peril. You probably enjoy a good
sip of Gatorade now and then, too.


Which old school Nickelodeon show are you?
