"I don't think it's fair...

...that as soon as I get home at night, you sit at my computer." - Mom

Yes, she said that to me. And why do I sit at her computer? I fill out job applications. Today I filled out four. The same thing, over and over. Granted, all the jobs that I would like are not available, because why would that happen? However, there are still jobs out there that fit under my degree, so I consider that a success. And I am still finding jobs that when I would read the description, I see myself enjoying. Therefore life is going pretty well.

Of course, I feel that I am seeing jobs I will enjoy because I just signed up for a synchronized swimming class. Yes, you read that right. My mom teaches it, but one of my friends will be in it too, so who knows. Last year when I "worked" with the novices, I had a great time, and it is pretty challenging, so I am excited for it. Mom is teaching it, but no matter what it'll be fun. It also gives me an alternative to running one day per week, which I am excited about since it is pretty hard to get motivated for anything besides getting a job and moving out.

Diary of Life After

The hustle & bustle of college life and camp counselor has come to a close for me. What is left? Searching for a job. BORING. In order to fill my days, I search for jobs, hope for apartments, run and read books. I love book quotes, and have decided to find a way to relate them to my current life, which is what I will do here. This will also be a place for me to become motivated and pressured to continue running. I know its important, but sometimes, it is just so damn hard. Welcome to this life. As of right now, its not the most interesting, but there is potential. And there is also a society of people who are in the same situation.
