As I write this I have just taken over as the Treasurer of Phi Delta Theta and tomorrow at 4pm I will be taking over as Vice President of the Interfraternity Council. My responsibilities are going to increase a lot over the next semester, but it is something I am excited for. I will be taking courses related to my major that I hear are very difficult and I look forward to the challenge. My responsibilities within the Barton International Group will also be increasing as we have a project scheduled for Spring Break of the spring semester. This excites me. I like the idea that if I can survive my next two semesters of college I will have accomplished some pretty difficult things. I will feel fulfilled.
Through high school I never really challenged myself, and college has been a welcome change to that. It has been exciting and scary to put myself in situations I have never been in before. My next step will be to put myself out in the job market. It is something I have never done before I am excited to see how I will face this challenge. I would like to get an internship for the summer, and I need to start applying. I currently work for my father who is a TPA (Third Party Administrator) for 401(k) plans. It has been a good experience, but I am looking forward to a new experience and challenge. I feel I have accomplished a good amount in my time in college, but I have not yet had the courage to put myself out there in the job market.
I see the value of applying to several places I just haven't had the time nor courage to do it. Christmas break will be the time when I put myself out there and start applying places. I put in my blog that putting yourself out there is one of the most important keys to success in college. That is why I need to do this. I have put myself out there in several different areas of my life, but I have not yet put this kind of challenge in front of myself. I have confidence that I can meet this challenge, but I will not know until I actually try.
I will actually be scheduling an interview for a company that is interested in offering me a position in the very near future. This is exciting, but I do not know what it will lead too. I just know that I am ready for new challenges in my life. I will hopefully be updating my blog in the near future with some successes I have had with regards to my employment status. I am very wishful that I can do some internship this summer even if it is just meaningless work. I am signing off now, but thank you to my those fellow bloggers who stuck it out these last two days. I know you learned a lot about me.
