unemployed, no mo.

After months and months of sending out resumes/cover letters, going on interviews, getting rejected, and hitting low points, I have finally landed a job. I'm still in shock right now, and I don't think the high I'm feeling is going to wear off until this weekend is over, right about when I start getting nervous about the whole going-to-work-after-months-of-doing-nothing thing. I talked to my parents and they were happy too, which is pretty awesome considering I think they had given up all hope on me at this point.

So yeah. I'm going to be employed by Turner Broadcasting, at Cartoon Network, as a Team Assistant. What will I be doing? Pretty much being the right-hand man to 3 Account Executives- making phone calls, writing letters, scheduling meetings, etc. It'll be fun and exciting, and I'll be working in TV, which is super duper cool. I hope this is what it takes my dad to finally let me install cable at home.

Things are finally looking up, though my health isn't at the moment. I have a cold that has been pretty bad thus far. I'm coughing like crazy and because of that pressure, my head feels like it's going to split open any minute. I'm also coming off of a really nasty pink-eye like infection, which I caught from one of the kids at TCCC. I guess it was his goodbye present to me. =P The amount of gross discharge coming out of my eyes the first night was disgusting. Bleh. A $100 trip to the optometrist (thank goodness I will have health insurance from now on) and constantly putting in medicated eyedrops in my eyes have made the infection almost non-existent, though I have to wear glasses for another week. I need to rest up before Wednesday!
