and so it begins....again

ahhh yes, the ever-present job-hunt. i find myself in a familiar setting. needless to say I'm getting a little down, i haven't found anything, and i am constantly receiving e-mail/ mailings saying something along the lines of "thank you for your interest in "blahblahblah" we regret to inform you that this position has already been filled/ you do not meet the requirements, blahblahblah. GAH! and yet while these negative thoughts are racing through my head, i can't help but hear my sisters voice, "Stephanie, you have to give it time, something will come along" and right as I'm hearing those words, Dan jumps in with basically the same words, telling me to relax and focus. on the bright side, i pick up my first shift at pier 1 on wednesday. so thankfully i have that. i feel like i've been without a job for months now! and its only been 4.5 business days. patience young grasshopper, patience.
