An update of my life lately

I've been pretty inactive here lately. I've got a lot going on. It's been good and it's been bad. Right now, I'm not having the best of days.

 

First of all, I graduated college about a 3 weeks ago. I now have a BBA in accounting. Since getting my degree, I've been looking for work at many accounting firms. They either weren't hiring or they interviewed me only to never give me a call back. As it is, I am still jobless, looking for work.

 

I talked to my mom today, and she said it probably wouldn't be a bad idea for me to take work at wherever I can find it. If that means being a waiter or a carhop for the summer, then that's what it might have to be in the meantime. She told me that it would be nice if I could find something applicable to my degree, but I might have to swallow my pride and this attitude that I've been wearing that "I didn't just get my 4 year degree to stock shelves or deliver food." Admittedly, I've been doing that. But wouldn't you feel the same way if you put in 4 years and thousands of dollars to your education?

 

I did get an interview today. But I think I botched it on one question. Some people are telling me that I'm just being too hard on myself and my interviewer probably knew I was very nervous. It's true. I need a job right now.

 

I need a job because recently, my Prelude finally decided to have major trouble. It's in the shape where it can be driven, but it's not fit to be driven. I jumped a small connector the other day so the check engine light would give me some codes. I got 8 (bad TDC sensor), 67 (bad catalytic converter), 80 (bad EGR valve), and 70 (auto transmission malfunction). As far as the transmission goes, it seems to work just fine. As for everything else, I'm looking at fixing it all. I need to. And it'll be cheaper than buying a new car, which I can't afford to do right now.

 

I guess it's not all bad. I did graduate with honors (cum laude - my grade point average was 3.57) and I have a beautiful girlfriend now. I can find solace that while I once thought I was perpetually single, I now have someone to call mine.

 

It's not looking so great right now.

 

...Welcome to adulthood, Space Woona...

 

I guess once you hit the bottom, the only way to go is up. I'm ready to advance. Hopefully this summer quits sucking soon.
