Nearing the End


It's nearly the end of winter term 2008.  This means: 1. I have one term left of college.  2. Finals, projects and papers are consuming my life.  3.  I should have some sort of plan post-graduation.  Unfortunately, points one and two are all that I can think about right now.  Other than the occasional search on Craigslist, my job search is going  nowhere.  People are always asking me what I want to do after graduation....there are lots of things that I want to do.  But, what I want to do and what I need to do are two completely different things.  

In a perfect world, I would spend the summer traveling Europe with a friend, or two.  I would return to the States in the fall and begin working at a record label, doing some form of promotions.  

Reality is really more like this: After graduation I will stay in Eugene so I can be close to my friends and family.  Meanwhile continuing in my search for the perfect job in the perfect place.  I know life, jobs/work and everything else doesn't always happen just how we want, but I would be much happier if it did!  So, I will continue dreaming of the perfect scenario and maybe, just maybe I will pleasantly surprised with my perfect world.
