Famous Last Words: Job Search

Wikimedia: Career Fair

This week I felt like I wrote a better story based off the source stories within Aesop’s fables. I was able to use a style similar to how the fables build up suspense throughout the body before revealing the punchline and ultimately the moral of the story. In addition, I was able to successfully add more dialogue throughout my story this week. Which I thought was able to communicate the personality of characters in the story without just describing it in third person. For the rest of the assignments in this class, I feel I have been staying ahead of the game and on schedule. I haven’t stayed exactly on the schedule I set forth at the beginning, however I haven’t procrastinated to the point where I have missed assignments.

In my other classes things are starting to pick up and I have a couple projects due in the following weeks. Therefore, staying on schedule will be very vital and completing all my assignments on time the next couple weeks. I think my favorite class I have so far is Drilling II. The professor is knowledgeable not only in the classroom but also in the practical application in the real world, which I am a fan of. In addition to classes picking up, I also am on the job hunt since this is my last year. The career fair is this week so I’ll be busy doing last minute edits to my resume and practicing my elevator speech. Times are somewhat tough for my specific major, however I am trying to remain optimistic on the potential unforeseen opportunities. Lastly, I am looking forward to my readings this next week. I believe I am going to read Homer’s Iliad, which I have seen some others from the class have already done. There seems to be some interesting paths for storytelling from it. Thanks for reading!
