3rd Time's a Charm

Soooooo… I started my 3rd round of work experience today. What. A. Nerd. The one that I never intended to do, had my blinders up to avoid, too good an opportunity to pass up, yada yada yada. Yeah, that one.

I would love to tell you about it till my little hearts all content. However, as this is the wide, glorious world of the internet, I happen not to be that stoopid. I’ve read horror/stupidity tales of people that have blogged about the goings on of their workplace, and subsequently lost their job and looked a tad foolish in the process (check out Dooce. Luckily her life goes more than alright). I will not be that stupid!

What I will say, though, is that it’s in television and they’re talking about offering me an internship/job once I finish. I didn’t think I wanted this. Well, I obviously want it, but didn’t think I’d want it now. But when I am there, in that place, with those people, I want it soo much.

It defies my better logic.

And it is completely terrifying. Slightly less terrifying now that I know I don’t have to wear a chick suit to the office (just strangle me with the top button already, it’s like murder). I shall wear my fun floral blouses and old-school finds with wild abandon. I feel so old. It’s much better, however, knowing that I’m not signing my life away for the next 5 years. I still intend to go travelling sometime next year. I will still have another Christmas in the snow. I will start to speak 1000 accents, none of them my own. It’s simply the order of things that are a little bit crazed right now.

So all thought and direction and plans are out the window. I’m on an open path and I don’t know where it will carry me.

And I definitely like the sound of that…
