Good News!

So this past week I have been going crazy feeling lazy and not productive at all. School has been out now for 2 weeks and it feels like I haven't done anything for months. So the plan was to job hunt the week after school got out and that's what I did. Unfortunately, I thought there would be many more job options just incase things don't work out for one or the other. So the first monday off I found on Utah State's website that a summer landscaping job was open for the campus. I have always loved being outside planting flowers, making the yard look nice, so I thought it'd be perfect. I made a phone call and set up an appointment and the first available time was on May 13th. A little over a week from when I called. I found a way to keep myself busy and not go crazy in the mean time waiting. Curt was so helpful and gave me all these pointers of how to have a great interview seeing how it was my very first. HE's a pro @ that! So I went in and did what he said and was simply myself. I felt pretty good about getting the job UNTIL the man who was interviewing me said, "Now there are 60 people interviewing and only 18 positions available. You will get a call by the end of the work day on friday IF you're successful." The best part of it was that my really great friend Jen Gunnell applied too, so we talked back and forth seeing if she had gotten a call or if I had gotten a call. The end of the work day was drawing near on thursday, almost 4...and my phone rings with a 797 #. (all usu # begin with 797) So to say the least I was going crazy inside, had to get my composure back and answer the phone. Sure enough it was Utah State asking if I would like the job! "YES," I said! Not too long after Jen got called as well! WHOO...I am so excited to have a job and especially to be working with her, she's a blast! I thought I'd put this picture up of a landscape in honor of the celebration...too bad Utah State's campus is not quite as beautiful as Hawaii!!(:
