Theres only two weeks of school left! I am excited and also nervous. These next two weeks are going to be tough with a lot of homework. But soon enough it will all be over which I am not too excited for. I am also happy I don’t really have any finals either. All my teachers moved up everything so I will be done by May 1st!

I had my first job interview last Thursday! I was so nervous and it lasted like 40 minutes! The night before I felt like I had study for a exam because I needed to know about the company. The interview went well though and I got called back for another one!

Over

My last day at my internship was last Tuesday. I worked at The Learning Key and enjoyed working with staff. I feel like I had a good experience there but I am still really glad its over! I can finally sleep in on Tuesdays and Thursdays and not work til 5 on Fridays!!

Ok

Barack Obama stands for many different issues and therefore sends out many key messages. My group discussed some of the key messages we want Obama to target for our age group. Politicians need the right key messages and tactics to reach the younger audience.Education was one of the major key messages we would want him to address. With so many college students graduating with loans, students want this issue to be attacked. Our group came up with one idea of fixed loan rates. Also for the interest on loans to be lower so it is easier for college students to pay them back. One of the biggest issues facing our whole country is the Iraq war. Our next president needs to address this problem and solve it. The country’s economy is also in trouble and we would like the candidates to come up with a solution to this problem. Many college students face losing their health care upon graduation. We need our next president to help out the younger generation and the problems they are going to face. We would want Obama to get this country to provide healthcare for college students and graduates.There are many people who can influence college students to take a stand and vote.

This weekend was the best ever. The weather was perfect! I can’t believe Sunday is already here and tomorrow it’s Monday!!! It feels like school is already over and I am sick of doing schoolwork! I hope the weather stays warm for the rest of the week!

BLAH

I really feel like I can’t blog anymore. Honestly I don’t even see the point of doing it anymore, it is just kind of annoying. I feel like I have to force myself to write about something when usually I have nothing interesting to write about. Graduation is right around the corner and it really is bitter sweet. I picked up my cap and gown and it seemed so unreal. I remember doing that senior year in highschool it seems like last year!!!! I am really nervous tonight because in the morning I have an interview with Bristol- Myers Squibb. I feel like I can’t do enough to prepare for it! Whatever, hopefully it goes well. I am so overwhelmed with school work, I just want to be like **** this I AM GRADUATING!!! 

So as graduation approaches I am getting more and more nervous about not being a college student anymore. I know later on down the path, I do want to attend graduate school but just not yet. Recently I went to career services and I can not believe what a great help they are. I wish I didn’t wait til now to go, but they help you with everything. After talking to a woman there, I have way more hope of finding a job that I actually want then I ever did before. Rider offers alot of programs through career services that are also very helpful. I recommend that everyone take advantage of career services.

It’s hard having to blog about just anything. Nothing new is really happening that I think would be interesting enough to share. The only thing on my mind is that graduation is approaching. Tonight I am going out with my friends and that’s basically what I am going do for the remainder of the school year. I want to enjoy myself as much as I can til I have to enter the real world!

Nothing interesting is really going on in my life right now. I can’t wait for spring break its so close!!!! :) ! School work is getting overwhelming and I need a break. Other then that I have been working on updating my resume…I don’t know my life seems pretty boring right now. Hopefully I will have something more interesting to blog about soon!

Last Call…

From now on we are allowed to blog about whatever we want, which makes me very happy. At the same time I’m thinking to myself I don’t want to write about anything haha. The only thing on my mind right now is how I am about to graduate in two months and how much it depresses me. Sometimes when I think about it I can’t even fathom the fact that college is over! What the hell happened to the past 8 years? I miss high school and I am going to even miss college a lot more. Growing up does scare me, but leaving the college life behind scares me more. I’m going to miss going out and being able to say I’m in college and all the things I have experienced here. I was told college flies by but now it’s really hitting me! What scares me more is that I wish I could do it all over again and MAYBE pursue a different degree. The closer I am getting to graduation I’m seeing that there are about a million  people with a communication degree and how hard it may be for me to even get a job or at least a good one or one that makes me big bucks. I almost feel like my degree is a joke (no offense to anyone else.) Anyways, I am just going to try to enjoy my last few months here as much as I can!
