I GOT A NEW JOB!

For awhile now I have been wanting to find a new job because the boss at my old job is a little crazy, and I'm not even being dramatic when I say that.  So last week I was determined to get a new job because I thought to myself I needed a positive change in my life, therefore I started to ask my friends if they had heard of any openings and luckly my wonderful friend michele told me that her bank had an opening for a teller position.  So of course I went last week put in my application, and set up an interview to see the manager over the department I was applying for; my interview was yesterday morning and it went really well and I felt very confident that I landed the job.  And I was right I received a phone call from a lady in their HR department only a few hours later confirming that I GOT THE JOB!!! So you are now looking at a new teller for the First National Bank!  Woop Woop!!

Schools Kill Creativity

"If your not prepared to be wrong, you will never come up with anything original."  When Ken Robinson said this in his speech I found it to be very true.  Sometimes for myself I get nerves and worried about presenting a new project especially if its presented in a different format then the one my professor is used to seeing. Because I don't want my ideas/creativity to be shot down and sometimes its just wrong because it wasn't formatted the way the professor wanted it to be.  I agree that in this society we are educated away from creativity, its just the same as someone telling me that getting my degree in communications is a waste of my time because to get a job in today's world you need a degree in business or in some sort of science.  But I chose this field because you can be creative and you wouldn't always have a routine work schedule, you can broaden your horizons and actually challenge yourself because with communications you are constantly learning new things such as different social media and I think its amazing.  But according to Ken Robinson sounds like we all just have to go with it, see what happens and not be worried about being wrong because people make mistakes and sometimes a mistake can turn into an accomplishment.  

Book of the week

Recently a group member of mine from class, told me that I had to read this most amazing book about a woman who decides to leave the life she has and get away to figure out what she truly wants out of life and she talks about her journey two 3 different countries, Italy, India and Indonesia. The book is called Eat,Pray,Love by Elizabeth Gilbert and its a biography of a new chapter in her life, basically when everything changed for her. I just began reading the book this week and I'm already half way through the book it is amazing and very inspiring, it makes me wish I could leave and go visit these countries as well. If any of you are looking for a great biography to read I highly suggest reading this one!
