I GOT THE JOB!

I know I haven't posted in a while, and again, I apologize. Still busy with school, my internship, interviews, etc. And as it turns out, it's all been worthwhile because I got the position that I was so excited about! They had called me for a second interview which was held this past Thursday, and the president just called me this afternoon to tell me that I outshone the competition from both sets of interviews and that he would like me to come back as a part of the firm! So after I graduate college in December, I will start my training to become a Registered Representative from First Investors Corporation! I am so excited! I can't believe that I really am growing up, and my adult life has already begun... Last I checked, I was 15 - What happened? Haha.

Anywho, thanks again for checking in with me. I miss crafting, but lately I have had no time or funds to do so. I feel bad for disappearing so soon after I started getting to know people. Gina, I still smile when I see those curtains every time I step out of my room. :) I have not forgotten you.

Have a wonderful day, all, and I hope you are enjoying the beautiful fall weather. <3

It's in the air...


Last night was the first night this year that I've felt that familiar crisp feeling in the air - that cold that almost starts to hurt your nostrils when you take a deep breath of it. My best friend moved just down the street from me for now, so I'll get to walk in the beautiful autumn breeze more often. I just need to start bringing a thicker jacket. It was freezing last night (finally!). This was my first autumn bonfire! :D It was so good to just hang around with the heat of the fire, have a few beers, and laugh with everyone. It was one of those nights full of "little things". <3

Anyways, I've been suuuuper busy with school, internship, etc. It turns out that I ended up getting called for two interviews from the career fair I went to a little while back, both of which being this upcoming week. I'm sooo nervous. I've never had a "real" interview before. I work at Hot Topic, and when I was interviewed over 6 years ago, it was a group interview and it was a bit more laid back (it's still a "real" job, don't get me wrong). Now it's going to be super formal, dressed to impress, with resume in hand... It's crazy to think how fast we grow up. And scary. Did I mention scary?

I've been feeling kind of inspired to make something recently, I just have no time to do so... :(  It seems everyone is already onto making Christmas stuff, and I'm not willing to rush my absolute favorite day of the year (Halloween) away for that, so I've kind of taken one step back from the blogging thing. I want to thoroughly enjoy my autumn without winter butting it's nose in, haha (kind of like when they put Christmas trees out for sale in August).

I'm glad to see everyone's still crafting and painting away. I still want to make several things (I have a list in my head), so hopefully soon I can get some done sometime soon. I know I'll want to make Gram's witch by Halloween (her birthday) and some cute prairie dolls with little bags of sweet annie. :] Anywho, take care all. Take a deep breath of that autumn air. :D
