THE PLANS HAVE CHANGED.
So only one day into Nanowrimo, I had a major melt-down. Really bad. Like 2-3 hours of K and Kol talking me down, and plenty of DBZ therapy to soothe my hurts. It has boiled down to the fact that I can not physically handle my job for much longer. I am falling apart at the seams, and I'm sure people have noticed but I have been a wrecking ball of butthurt and insecurity and insanity over the past two months (I am sorry). So, Nanowrimo is now Jobowrimo. The new goal is 1k a day of writing novel/tags, and the other 700 words has to be in some way related to job-hunt, whether it is logging my progress, doing exercises, or god forbid, writing resumes and cover letters. LIKE A PIMP.
The goal is a new job by December 15th. It almost doesn't matter WHAT, except it does, cause I want to pick something that makes me happy and I don't want to do worse than I am now. It is really clear though. At this point, I need to get out of Macy's or I will suffer a major breakdown.
My mom sent me a book called What Color Is Your Parachute?, and that has become my project for the first week of this month. My perpetual whinging has been "BUT I DON'T KNOW WHAT I WANT TO DO AS A CAREER", and we are going to fix that NOW.
Here is one of the exercises I did today, and after that, one of the recommended career quizzes I did. Please feel free to comment or correct me, or make observations that I've overlooked.
