My last term of work has been kind of really crazy.
I have sent out, er, 10ish resumes. I have been rejected without interview from 2 positions and rejected from 1 after interview. I haven't heard at all from 5+ companies and I'm still working on 2 others. (By which I mean I have an interview in Osaka TOMORROW and another interview in Chiba next Thursday.) I've basically given up on 4 of the 5+ companies I haven't heard from. (I honestly can't remember all the places I've sent out applications to off the top of my head.) One of the companies employs my mom's friend's son, so I've got him checking on my application there, but I don't know what will come of it.
Though I know technically I still have another month, I'm flailing a lot like this is down-to-the-wire, last-minute interviewing and having a hard time not getting anxious.
As much as I would love to be home with my mom and my friends, I really can't sit around without a job. I could go to graduate school, I guess, but I refuse to put my mother in debt over tuition for a degree in something I'm not certain I actually want to do. I could come back and job hunt in New York, but I'd probably end up behind the counter of another bakery or something, and then my mother would fret about my future and things would just be unbearable with her at home.
Not to mention if I do wind up having to come home it really will be last-minute and I don't even want to think about the price of moving + plane ticket.
Conundrums, conundrums.
Entirely unrelated, I think I've lost weight again. My belts need like 2 new holes each and my pants are being annoying by not fitting.
