Well, its been awhile, and its been hard to sit down to just write a post again, but here I am with some news. Yesterday while eating ice-cream at Coldstone with a friend of mine, I recognized a girl I was friends with way back in High School. Her name is Jessica Parola, and I knew it was her right when I saw her. My eyes literally lit up upon seeing someone I recognized from those high school days, because I think you never truly think you are going to see these people ever again, but when you do, its a nice moment.
Anyway, at Jessica's permission, I will be able to talk about what she's been doing to find a job in the current market. She is a sophomore at Beacon College in Leesburg, Florida, and she's majoring in Liberal Arts with a minor in History. A historian is what she tells me she wants to be, and she's working very hard to see that she gets a job in that field. Right now, she is home after finishing up her spring semester, and looking for a part-time job around her house. She tells me she is doing stuff like going online looking and applying for jobs, calling up people, following up, and getting her name out there. Can I just say I give you kudos Jessica for all the hard work you are putting into it.
On a point of knowledge, I know how difficult and challenging it can be to just find one decent job that you can work for part-time just to save a little money. Me, I've gone through sales, marketing, retail, tried tutoring with not much success, and now I'm about to be done with my babysitting job. So trust me I know its tough, but if you keep at it, something will come through.
I will pick up on Jessica either later this week or next week, depending on when she's available to talk more about her experience. Right now, I need to get a move on researching for my family's England/Scotland trip which I am so excited for!
Talk to ya'll later!
