A: I am job searching. When I say that I'm job searching, I really mean that I'm finding creative ways of using the Internet that doesn't involve searching for jobs on the limited number of job search sites that I've bothered for about a month now. Procrastination is something that I'm very familiar with, so this is nothing new.
My most recent procrastination is Here's the Story, specifically their podcasts. I don't usually listen to podcasts, mostly for unknown reasons. I guess I just feel like I should be doing something else at the same time. Even though I'm procrastinating, I'm a very efficient procrastinator who does lots of things while she's procrastinating. So I'm writing this blog post while I'm listening to stories from Here's the Story and I just finished up writing Poem-A-Day things while listening to (guess what) stories from Here's the Story. It's a really neat show and I'm having a lot of fun listening to the stories. It's quickly becoming a goal of mine to go see this show in person, and I'm really excited about this prospect.
I've been knitting a Hufflepuff scarf for my friend while simultaneously watching Dollhouse. I'm getting pretty far in both the television show and on the scarf, so far that I'm almost halfway through the second season and the scarf reaches from the floor to my neck. I am 5'5''. Having a lot of fun with the show, especially when I can marvel at the acting talents of those who play the dolls because wow. Just wow.
Additionally, I'm also starting multiple projects relating to my poetry, which is really neat, but I'm not even sure which one to focus on because I'm excited about them all but I don't have nearly enough hands to do all of them at once. So really they're all sitting on the chair in my room in a stack of poetic mess, doing about as much as I am with regards to my job search.
A friend of my mother's asked me on Saturday night, "So how's the job search going, Brianna, does it totally suck?" I had no idea what to say to that. Well, honestly? Yeah, a little bit. I haven't heard from anyone, and the ones that I have heard of have said, "Thanks but no thanks." That's fair, I can respect that. The short version is that I don't have a job. No job for Brianna. I have no idea what I'm doing, I'm a little dejected, yeah. So...I'm procrastinating for now. Really hoping that the procrastination blows over soon...because I need to get some stuff done.
