Entry #8- Jobs

Over the last couple of years I had never really thought about getting a job just yet. I always thought focusing on school and only school was important. Over time though, I realized more and more each day that I strongly needed a job asap!

Being a full time student and spending every weekday at GCC, I did not think I could personally handle a job! 

"Too stressful? Too much word? How will I get my homework done? No more sleeping in?! No more free time to hangout with friends and family?"
These thoughts ran through my head for days but I knew I needed to get one. I was tired of feeling helpless and I knew it was time to step up!

As some of you may know, I am going to school strictly to major in becoming a vet; however, some of you do in fact know I want to pursue professional photography as well! 

In my daily search for a job I came across something so ideal to me! A photography job at an actual professional studio! This was perfect for me! 

What had happened was I applied online, made my first resume, and went into the studio two days later to let the manager know I applied! 

Before I went in I made sure my resume was in a nice folder and I attached some photographs to make up a little portfolio to impress them! Well, it worked!!

I got hired on the spot! No interview, no experience, nothing! Right away the manager was excited to have me! She even said she was not hiring anymore, but I made an exception! It was unreal! 

I now am a qualified professional photography and work at a REAL studio!! It is so awesome having a first real job that is something I LOVE doing!! Not very many people can say that!

I'm just so grateful to have had this opportunity and I cant wait to see what else the future has in store for me!
