So today I got my resume improved and revamped. A HUGE thankyou to Mrs. Velazquez in Career Services for all she did to make it better. I started out with this simple little one page resume that basically screamed "I am a college graduate who is educated but has no experience at all whatsoever," and she turned it into a useable document that I can confidently turn in to an employer and feel like I at least look like a valuable employee.
I stopped by the real estate table in the UC just to see what all selling houses entailed, but once I heard that it costs almost $2500 to go to school for it, I decided that I better go another route. A first sale might make up for that large chunk of money. And then again, it might not. And frankly, I did not go to school for 4 years just to go pay that much money to take a 3 week class for a job that is commission only. NO thank you.
On a positive note, I sent in my newly improved resume to another potential job today and I know for certain that he has a girl leaving in May. So I am keeping my fingers crossed and praying very hard that if this is the job I am supposed to get, I will get it. We are putting a deposit down on the duplex TODAY, so now the money is just being spent and not made, haha. I need that to change fast.
We are going to start moving things out the last week of this month. I am so excited! Even though I am not really sure where my life is taking me, it seems like I have a better idea than I did six months ago. I have Andrew to share the surprise with, which is a HUGE plus. Neither one of us figured this would be the outcome of our lives at 22/23, but here we are. Life is funny like that. :)
