gainful employment, finally!
I got the job with Americorps Vista, partnering with Volunteers of America, starting in August. I am so excited. I've been working and hoping for this job for about a month now... And I get to enjoy the rest of my summer until August guilt free.
The job itself sounds amazing... I'm going to get to learn a lot of new skills, plus put to use things I learned from working on Student Union.
And the best part is that I know how nonprofit jobs work. I know what will frustrate me. But I know I will love waking up each morning, knowing I am making a difference in someone's life.
I won't make much money, but I'll have health insurance. And living with my parents for another year won't kill me... I hope. ;) I'm never home anyway, so that will be fine.
Yay, job! Yay, work! Yay!

Congrats on the job! Be sure to enjoy the months until August as well. I'm in the same boat for now: happily unemployed for the summer, although my problem is that I don't yet know what fall will hold.
