Day 1

For the last couple of weeks, (ok maybe more like months), I have been counting down the days until I finished classes. I was tired of studying on weekends and evenings, while my friends worked their 9-5 jobs and went to happy hours multiple times a week. Well...now I'm finished. Last friday I completed my last requirement to achieve my MA at the end of this month. Now what?

I'm not employed YET (I blame the economy- where are those green jobs?!) It has been a LONG time since I had more than a week off from full time school or work. I'm a little antsy. I don't want to sit around all day twiddling my thumbs, waiting for someone who has my resume to call me back.

So for the next few months, I plan to limit my job searching to several hours a day. My goal is to do something interesting each day. Something that I've been wanting to do for a while but kept putting off.

This will include a wide variety of things from trying a recipe to checking out a museum. Or maybe just sitting and reading a book outside. The point being, enjoy my unemployment at least until I start getting desperate and need to look a retail job.
