What I am doing this summer

In short, I have no clue.

Here is my deal: I've applied to a whole bunch of internships and yesterday I got 5 rejections. The best part? Four of them were for the same job! Oh government jobs. When you say no, you really want to make it count.

Last week I was at the career fair and felt like complete shit afterwards. Now I am picking up my peices. I am about to email everyone who was silly enough to give me thier card and I am going to beg, plead, and remind them of our conversation. I have a few jobs on my school's symplicity network that I am going to email too (on top of the I don't even know how many I've been applying to.)

What this is really coming down to is I have about a week of putting in all my last ditch efforts for the next week before I have to submit to a summer clerkship. Not that the school program is bad, but for me, I think it may be a little bit of a let down to know that I wouldn't have the job that I really wanted. It is a way of saying that I wasn't good enough. That is job applications though- 50 nos that make you feel like shit and one yes that will make your summer.

  1. Hey Marion! Thanks for your comment and I hope my misadventures through law school aren't too depressing.
