Today's the Day...

Today snuck up on me when I was least expecting it... it's the deadline for accepting or rejecting my job offer from the fall. While on the one hand I've known what my answer would be as soon as I started reading through the informational packet, I still have to wonder whether or not I'm making the right choice in turning down a pretty awesome internship. I think I'm at that point though where I have to start deciding what I want to do, not what I should do, or what I'm expected to do but what I want to do. That's the hardest part for me. This school is a pretty demanding one, and while I love it, I think sometimes that getting caught up in managing coursework with work with activities definitely detracts from figuring out what on earth you actually want to DO with your diploma. The projects prepare you for the real world, but I don't think anything compares to the experience of having an internship and making those connections in the working world.

Anyway I think I've gone on and on about that job enough... and now it's time for me to start focusing on the upcoming Career Fair!!! There are over 100 companies who will be attending the fair, which means that there will be a ton of interesting opportunities!! I haven't done a lot of noteworthy things since I last had my resume critiqued, which means I just need to make small alterations and then I'll be good to go!

Reality Check: The Internship Fair is under 2 weeks away!
