Becoming a Real Person
I do not know if I want to be a real person yet. I like the fact that my schedule is open for a large portion of the day. I like that I have some freedom without the responsibility of work. I like the fact that I can stay up late hanging out with friends and not have to worry about work the next day. But soon, all of that will change. I have to start looking for a full time position after graduation.
UD is already starting to have career fairs and companies have already started to hire students. In fact right now is the middle of recruiting season for accounting firms. There is a career fair coming up and I have already attended a "Meet the Firms Night" on campus where all the accounting firms come and meet the perspective graduates that they might hire. The whole process is incredibly unnerving. To know that you are being judged by all these different companies makes you feel quite small and insignificant. Regardless, now is the time for me to step up to the plate and try to put the ball in play. It might be nerve-racking but once it is over I will have a job and will not have to worry about getting one for the rest of the year. That will be a huge load off my mind and a lot of work I will no longer have to worry about. It is funny how if I describe this process on how much my workload and stress level will be reduced, the whole thing sounds like a wonderful experience. Maybe it is.
