In the midst of job hunting, I am grateful enough to have actually snagged a job (a great one). Over the summer, I was doing two unpaid internships both revolving around writing. One provided opportunities for me to actually get paid and this consisted of flyer work and social media postings. Although the flyer work
I know that everyone doesn’t like their job, but don’t take that anger out on someone who doesn’t deserve it. Cough.. security guards at NYU..cough. There have been so many times when I have been yelled at or embarrassed by these security guards to a point where I am just so used to it. Today

So I finally took my first professional step by customizing a casual, but professional Twitter. It not only looks great to me, but I do genuinely like seeing my notification count go off. I was honored to be retweeted and liked which made me think, I can get used to this. I even felt motivated
