Ok, so for most of my stint at Wizard I've been holed up in the research office. An office comprised of three other people other than me, two of which annoy/anger the hell out of me most of the time and are passive aggressively misogynistic (if that makes any sense), one that I like very much.
This week, for one of the other interns "trial week" in research, I was put on his computer, which is my old computer...in the hall office, the "intern pit."
This week, I felt ok about being there again. It was nice. I feel now that a great deal of the troubles I've had had to do with placement.
Not only am I more accesible (and less likely to be forgotten by the editors) in the intern pit, but it's just more positive, and when you're in a more positive atmosphere you accomplish more. Not that any of this matters now, and that actually irritates me the most.
One week to go.
The job hunt is still on. In fact, that's my goal for the whole of this day...until evening anyway. I got a friend to let me use his computer and I'm sitting here until I've gotten stuff done.
Right now is a hard place to be. Because I truly feel like I will do well, and I know that I will find a job and everything. But at the same time, I haven't found one yet and I lose my job in a week. I don't know what that job will be exactly or where it will be. I feel like I'm floating around looking for a port, but I don't know where it is. Very weird.
I'm working hard not to panic, and I'm mostly succeeding. I think it'll all be fine.
