Okay, okay.... I'm not the only one here that's feeling the end-of-the-term-squeeze-stress-thingy.... I'm sure that's not the technical term, but it will work..

I've recently had to turn down a job offer to accept a more fitting to my studies job. After I accepted the job, I got a call for a different interview. I went to my orientation on Monday and found out wonderful information about my new home, National City Bank! I haven't started working yet... but the anxiety of starting a new job is kicking in....

I got my grade in A100 (Intro to Accounting)...This was one stress that was lifted off my chest. Who would have known that little 1 credit hour class could be so mind wrecking?!?!? Definately don't take this one for granted....

I've got three tests this week (Whew!) AND 4 more next week.... AND I have to study for my finals....

So what's stressing you guys??? Drop me a comment and let me know. I will come up with some remedies for your stressers.......

Okay... It's that time again.... The Spring Semester is winding down and everyone's planning their summer. My summer includes Micro-economics and Accounting 201. Okay, it's not as fun as a trip to Florida, but we all do what we have to do.

I'm sure a lot of you are looking for jobs, since money pays the bills. In my X204 (Business Communications) class, a representative from the Career Placement Office stopped by to offer awesome tips on Resume writing to find that job. She offered a Powerpoint of information that was very helpful to young resume writers. She even showed us 5 examples of different resumes and asked us who we would interview. AND, at the end of class she even took a peek at my personal resume and gave me good pointers on how to make it look even better! (How awesome is that? Free advice!)

Anyone in the Kelley School of Business can go to the Career Placement Office located in BS4090. They can help you with your resume, help you find internships (some are FOR college credit), perform mock interviews (by appointment) and much more! Their website is www.kelley.iupui.edu/careeropps if you'd like more info!

Good luck to everyone on their job hunt! And, if you're not looking for a job, it's never too soon to build that resume! You never know when you might be in the right place at the right time. You want to be prepared!

By the way, I recently got a job myself at the Plainfield JC Penney's!
