Hi guys!
I'm just dropping in to say hi and distract myself from intern-tweets.
And to bring cupcakes!
*gives everyone cupcakes*

I hope you're all having a good day! <3

Hiya Arriana!! :D *takes a cupcake* ^^ how are you doing?

xuvrette 03-03-2013 08:11 PM

Research is stuck with a software problem... and job search is scarce. DX
Not like I am looking forward for a full time job. x.x

Arriana 03-03-2013 08:16 PM

I'm doing alright! (:

Xuv, isn't it??
I've been searching for a year and a half and I finally landed this internship...unpaid. The only thing I can say though is that it's something, right?
Just keep trying. It sucks, but you can do it!
You might not even have to do what I did - I moved across the country for better luck. x)

I went about 4 years with nothing coming out of anything I did. Then I finally got the station job, and I applied for a paid summer internship.

<_< The internship is largely because my field (Graphic Design) is just not taking entry level right now. I figure internships are pretty much my only real chance at getting experience. If I get into the one I applied for, I won't quit the gas station unless they keep me afterward.

xuvrette 03-03-2013 08:29 PM

Unpaid internship?
Then how you survived?! O__O

Arriana 03-03-2013 08:58 PM

I also work part time in retail. :3
I try to not go shopping and I check the ads for deals on food.
I eat a lot of eggs, bread and peanut butter..Cheap but energy giving foods.
I have to pay rent and gas sucks up a lot of money, but if I sacrifice now, I hopefully won't have to later.

You gotta do whatcha gotta do. ):

xuvrette 03-03-2013 09:01 PM

How do you have TIME to work part time in retail if you are working intern? O__O

Arriana 03-03-2013 09:05 PM

The internship is part time and my retail job is part time.
Even if the internship was full time, I'd still work my paying job in the evenings and on weekends if that's what I had to do.

When I was in graduate school, I worked full time for school to pay for my tuition, worked part time in my retail job and went to class three nights a week. School-job was 8-5, class was 6-10 and retail-job was 545-945. It was draining at first, but I got the hang out it.

*pokes head in* Hellllooooo

Arriana 03-03-2013 09:12 PM

Hiya Div. ((:
How're you doing?

Divacita 03-03-2013 09:13 PM

Div is doing well. Just trying on the new CIs XDD

D.J. Dead 03-03-2013 09:18 PM

Almost done with the rough draft of my paper [squee]

Divacita 03-03-2013 09:20 PM

Yay, For D.J. *Cheers you on* Go DJ, GO DJ, it's your birthday, it's your birthday.

spunky 03-03-2013 09:23 PM

You go DJ! You can do it! -cheers with pom poms-

D.J. Dead 03-03-2013 09:32 PM

Thanks guys XD I'm so happy this paper has been driving me insane

xuvrette 03-03-2013 09:35 PM

Goodie~ rough draft done, then all left is refining~

Arrianana... O__O
you seemed to have 36 hours...

D.J. Dead 03-03-2013 09:40 PM

Yup and I have a week to do that once the rough draft is done

Arriana 03-03-2013 09:40 PM

@xuv~ xD If only! Then I might have been able to get more sleep.
I know it sounds daunting but after a couple months I had gotten the hang of it. It wasn't too awful.
This past week was my first week as an intern and it positively drained me. I have high hopes for next week though - I think I've got a schedule figured out in my head. (:

Yay DJ on your paper!!

Yay Div for the CIs!
I liked them, but they felt a little too...single use for me. :/
Like...Difficult to use them to accessorize with.

Divacita 03-03-2013 09:43 PM

Arri:Div found lots of stuff to go with.LOL <.< XE

D.J. Dead 03-03-2013 09:46 PM

Thanks Arriana :)

xuvrette 03-03-2013 09:53 PM

It really impressed me, Arrianana that you have two jobs and yet manage to come online! O__O

Arriana 03-03-2013 09:59 PM

Multi-tasking is great! It's also important to take breaks now and then. ;D
You gotta stop and refuel and relax once in a while!

I do have to go now though.
Family gathering and then work till 11 tonight.
Luckily, I don't have to be at work tomorrow till 1!
Yay, I might get to sleep a little! (:

Talk to you guys later! <3
*gives everyone cupcakes* <3

D.J. Dead 03-03-2013 10:03 PM
