Well I had my interview for the internship today and it went well. I'm already scheduled for a second interview this Friday and I'm really excited about the opportunity. I just have to get past the next phase of interviews, which, there's apparently three people I have to talk to. I also have to pass a mock writing assignment which has to be done in 45 minutes. YIKES! But I'm still really excited and hopeful. It's with a great company and the internship can last for however long I want it to. There's no end date and if I'm good at what I do, they said they might, might, MIGHT hire me for a full time position. So I just have to go in and work my hardest and see what happens.
The only thing that makes me sad about it is Robert isn't here. If I got offered a full time job what would we do? He's three hours away and I miss him terribly. It wouldn't be fair of me to ask him to leave his new job in seven months. I know he'd never ask me to leave mine either. That's one of the remarkable things about our relationship. We truly respect eachother's needs. We'll see what happens if I get the internship, and later, if I got offered a job. Right now it's hard to be apart, but when we're married we've promised to move back in together. So, despite the fact I have to get the position first, I'm definitely thinking about what would happen if I was offered a career as I don't want to start married life without him here.

A much more positive post
I've decided not to move with Robert right now. I miss living with him a lot but I can't seem to commit to the move. I'm not ready to leave Charlotte. Of course I want to be with Robert and because of that I'm still looking into moving. But right now the right job opportunity hasn't come along, and as I've said time and time again, when we start our life as a newly married couple, I want the right career. Especially since I want to go back to school and get my masters as well.
Also a few weeks ago I was offered an interview for a Copywriting internship that I turned down because I was moving. Now I'm researching back into the position, and if I could get it, it could change my career opportunities. I'd have experience in copywriting and that's definitely a direction I'd like to go with my career. It's a paid internship, too. Which means I could pay my bills and save a little while I'm researching into finding the right job where Robert is. I've got everything crossed for this position, which is scary because I don't want to be disappointed if I don't get it. But I'm hopeful.
Okay. . . so back to indulging in Boomerang cartoons.

Job hunting
Well, I decided not to take the opportunity I was offered. It was a great job offer, and I would have loved, loved, LOVED the work. However, it didn't pay enough to afford all my bills, which is the only reason I didn't take it. Don't get me wrong, I stand by my statement that the job is more important than the pay, but I have to make enough to pay my bills, too.
As for Robert, he's found a great job opportunity that will really take care of him. I would say more on here, but based on the harassment we've been receiving, I'm going to leave out the job name and where it is. You can always get in contact with me if you want to know :-).
So the job hunt continues. I'm determined to find a position I love. . . at least, most days if not all;). I really haven't been unemployed that long anyway. Just since April. But finding the right job means a lot to me and hopefully, I'll find it soon.
