Motivational Mondays: Regaining Focus!

Sometimes we lose focus on the bigger picture. Just 2 months ago I was excited to start my post-collegiate life. I had dreams of becoming the next 30 under 30. I was longing to move to a big city. Los Angeles was my 1st choice but that doesn't mean I wouldn't settle for San Francisco or Orange County. I just never expected to live in a suburb for as long as I've been living here.

Changing ambitions: WE'RE ON FACEBOOK and here's some advice

That's right! Twe1ve2 has officially made it to Facebook. Well, I finally decided to create a Facebook page for Twe1ve2. Why the wait? Well I wanted to build some sort of following and make sure blogging was something I was actually passionate about. Not just a past time like the time I was really into drawing anime or wanted to be a chef.

A fate worse than death: Rejection

 

Two things happened to me recently:
1. I had an interview with Chipotle.
2. I received my first career rejection letter.
I want to talk about the letter.

This wasn't technically my first rejection letter after college (I was rejected from the Sundance Film Festival as an employee) and probably not the last. However, this is the one that seemed to hit me the hardest. I was rejected by a friend of my parents friend. Someone the woman had known for years. He didn't directly reject me instead he stated that "they currently did not have any positions that fit my qualifications" or in other words sorry we can't find anything with your lack of experience.
