A Wish Your Heart Makes 12

Woah! Woah! Woah!

I know I disappeared off the earth, I mean, in case anyone was wondering (crickets.)

Well I got a little sidetracked with school, comps, and the rest of my life and the days flew by faster than I could imagine. Yet, my job search has not halted.

I recently applied for a job that I would really love. I think. I have a hard time letting myself believe or think that I really want it. Probably, as a protective coping mechanism in the event that I don't get it. So I struggle back and forth with allowing myself to truly want it.

I'm currently sitting in the aiport awaiting a plane that will take me to warm sunny Orlando for NASPA. This will be my first big student affairs conference and I'm looking forward to all the hooplah. I'm also looking forward to sun, pools and good conversations. I don't really have any high hopes for this weekend. It truly snuck up on me. I'm excited about connecting with some professionals I haven't seen in a while. I'm also excited about meeting people in the field and feeling that oh so wonderful feeling that I am apart of something larger than both myself and my immediate community.

 So I guess those are my hopes.

I have no nuggets of wisdom, but wanted to give a check in. I also found this article which I thought was useful and wanted to share. http://money.usnews.com/money/blogs/outside-voices-careers/2013/03/11/how-to-keep-your-sanity-while-job-hunting

The aiport internet is slow and I only have 30 minutes, eeee. So no disney song, but a perfect opportunity to use your disney imaginations.

Until Next Time.
