As you know, maybe from my last entry, I've been looking for something that's worth my while for this summer. Possibly a job, an internship or whatever that would keep me alive the next couple of months (until I get my school loan).
Well, on Monday, 5/20, I had an interview for an internship that I really want. It doesn't pay much. In fact it pays like crap. Some is still better than nothing. I want it bad because aside from the fact that it's a resume-builder, the job also seems very interesting and enjoyable.
As I left the house, I knew I looked all sassy dressed in a skirt, blouse, matching cardi and sensible shoes. Knowing I look good makes me project confidence. That's always a plus.
The interview went well, I suppose. Just the usual questions that I'm so used to by now, that it seemed as though I was only conversing with a long-time friend, and not an employer.
I guess that's good?
There was one thing during that interview that caught me off guard though. He asked, "What's the wackiest thing you've ever done?" This in particular surprised me because first, it's never been asked before. It's very original, I thought. Secondly, I honestly didn't know what to say. I just answered him by confiding at what age I first went clubbing and got hammered off my ass.
In case you're interested, I was 13. Yups, I know I did start early. But hey, at least I got it out of my system, so now I know how to moderate myself. Is that ok for a justification?
That answer was wacky enough for him, though. However it got me to thinking that in my soon-to-be twenty years of being, I really haven't done enough wild and outrageous things to validate my supposedly young and carefree existence. I've come to realize that especially lately, I've been nothing but an ole boring shrew! I don't have an interesting life anymore!
Last month, Paul told me that he thinks I don't have fun much. I strongly refuted him then. Now I think that he might be right?
Aw, too bad so sad.
But I found out today that I got the internship! Perhaps that's reason enough to party? Heh.
But hey, at least my productive summer dilemma is now solved. I guess my next task is to de-bore my life, eh? I'll just have to work on that later ...
For I am happy being a boring ole INTERN at the moment. Let me savor it.
