So, throughout the past few weeks, I've been trying to find a full-time summer job to keep me busy and get me some money for school next year, and well travelling! I applied for an interesting job online and have my interview tomorrow!
It sounds incredible - it's with my university, as the student coordinator for their studying/working/exchange abroad program. The main duties include organizing a 3 day "fair" at the university at the end of first semester describing all the world opportunities students have, but don't seem to take advantage of! I'd also get to work on the monthly newsletter and fun stuff like that! It just seems like there's not many "travel oriented" summer jobs out there, so we'll see what happens.
I'm not getting my hopes too high, because that's not always the best idea, but job interviews are always good for experience, right? I also am waiting to hear about another job coordinating day camps in my area, which would be incredible too. I want to be a teacher, so 30 hyper kids is fun for me!!
Anyway, just wanted to share. I'll keep you posted, but wish me luck!

The interview went really well (I hope)! Although any opportunity to talk about travelling is cool with me, right? I'd even get my own office...I've always wanted my own office (actually, no, but it's a cool thought!) Anyway, I won't hear back until early next week at the earliest, and since I found out today I didn't get the other job I applied for, I'm really hoping for this one to work out!
