I just got back from my appointment with career services. I had my fun and happy time with Pepperdine's excuse for a career counselor.

On the bright side, my resume is good. She couldn't think of any ways to improve it. That's actually pretty amazing considering the fact that most people have to do an overhaul of their resume after coming out of there.

On the down side, she wasn't much help. She asked me what I was doing to find a job and what my various strategies were. Looks like I'm doing everything correctly and she really couldn't think of ways to do it better. Gee, it's so nice to know that after doing things the way they should be done I still can't even get an interview. Maybe I'll just go and jump off of a bridge or something. Then the Enquirer can pay me for my story and I can have a paycheck!

* SCREAMS A LOT*

I also mentioned to her that I was worried because most firms hire before Winter break. She said that's true, but some of the small ones (read - they pay nothing and suck) still consider applicants during the Spring semester. She then told me that most Pepperdine students last year didn't have a job upon graduation. Most of them are waiting until next week when they get their bar results back to get hired. That was NOT encouraging. I'm going to be married when I get out of here. And I'd like to have a child sometime soom (with my medical conditions the longer I wait the higher the chance of my not making it through labor). I NEED a job when I get out of here. Or at the very latest by the time I'm done taking the bar (end of July). Help!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I find this result rather odd seeing as how my poetry is generally free form. I don't think I've ever done a haiku in my life. They're cool, I just don't have the patience or skill to do that whole meter/beats thing.
