This weekend is our homecoming weekend, where alumni come and see how their Alma Mater has changed and how it has stayed the same. Last night while watching the homecoming musical, I realized that this is the last musical I will see at OC as a student. Next year I will be an alumna. Do you know how scary that is? Well, it's really scary. This semester I have taken a lot of time to work on my resume and portfolio to make them look nice and professional.
On Monday I got an email from the CEO of World Bible Translation Center asking to meet with me for an interview. I have connections to this company through my grandparents. They had a meeting with the VP during fall break and since I spent my fall break with them, I had to go. What I wasn't expecting was to get a lead on an internship/job. They asked me what my major was and the moment I said PR they were asking me what I know about social media. They now want me...ME...to look over some of there work and make suggestions as to how to encourage the younger generation to become more involved with WBTC through social networking. I was completely taken back by this. I honestly thought it would be like any other internship or job I've applied for and flop, or not go anywhere.
So I now have this interview next Friday in Fort Worth to tell them my ideas. I have been trying to think of every question they are going to ask me so I can have the answer ready to go, but I'm so afraid they're going to ask me that one question that I would've never thought of and not have an answer for it. Nervous? I would say so! I'm not only nervous about whether they're going to like me or my ideas, but if they do and want me to come work for them after graduation, that means moving to Ft. Worth. Moving from OKC to Ft. Worth, I think, would be a bigger move than it was from Detroit to OKC. When you go to college, most people make friends instantaneously and if I do end up moving to Texas, I don't know a single soul in the Ft. Worth area. I would have to make new friends, find a new church, live in my own apartment (I think I'll get a dog...), and work full time. Talk about growing up. I honestly am not sure if I'm ready for this, but then again, it could be an answered prayer. I've been praying for a job to come my way where I can do what I love, which is PR and social networking, and not have to worry about it interfering with my morals and values. I mean, this is sharing the Bible with the world and I think that is very important.
So through all of this venting, rambling, and babbling what I'm trying to say is, please pray for me! Pray that they like me and my ideas and that I could possibly have a job after graduation. And that no matter what job I get, I will please God through my work!
Just found your blog honey. Of course I will pray for you. I think this opportunity is awesome.
