09/11/2002 entry: "The good part about being an art student.."

Hey! So I have some potential good news. I got an email today from the Art Department saying that there's three job openings in the department. One of them is for a web designer (!!!!). Naturally, I applied. They're actually accepting applications at the student job fair tomorrow, but they said if you can't make it you can just send them an email with all your information. So I totally did.

And since it'd be an actual JOB, I'd get PAID for it. Do you know how great that'll look on my resume? I'd only need to work 5 hours a week, but that'd be about.. an extra $25 a week. Hell, that would basically take care of my groceries for the week, and then I'd have the other $50 or so a week to save away or use (sparingly) on other things. Yuck, it's depressing how much schools pay their student employees. But, it's nice. It's not like I'm doing anything too difficult for the minimum work-study wage I'm earning.

Hell yes. But, I'm getting ahead of myself. I haven't gotten the job yet. I have 31 other emailed art students plus a variety of other students at the job fair to compete with. But it's not like I don't have experience, and I have all their requirements. They require that you have experience in web design and with using a digital camera. I have both! I have both times 20! This would be the perfect opportunity for me. I'm a little pessimistic because I just GOT one job this summer, and good luck tends to not stick around. But, you never know. Maybe it travels in threes. Yes, threes.

Well, I have to go. I thought I'd update everyone.

Speaking of updates, I have an explanation for why I haven't updated industrial beauty in a while. I'm working on a special Halloween edition up until Oct 24 (a week before). It's going to be super. And, a cover up for the possibility of more redesigning? Eh, I dunno. We'll see.
