.
.
.
.
.
.
.
Well, I am about to graduate college in about 8mths, so now is the time for me to start marketing myself and preparing to get out into the 'real world.' My parents want me to try my best to find a job or internship now that relates to what I want to do when I graduate, which I agree is a good idea. So today I dropped my resume off at a senior care place where I would like to be a Life Enrichment Coordinator...I would basically plan all their activies, organize and recruit volunteers and make sure the seniors have fun activies to be a part of while there. I'm really excited, because I think I'd really enjoy it. Hopefully they call me soon. (Fingers Crossed!)
.
So here's what I wore to drop off my resume:
.
Black wide leg trousers-$1.29 at Denton Thrift
Tan button down top-$4.99 at Denton Thrift (If u can't tell it has a skinny tie at the waist)
Tan heels-$11 at Payless
Black bag-$6.24 at Target
Funky scarf-59cents at Goodwill
.
Outfit total: $24.11 (Not to bad!)
.
Well, I just finished my homework, so all I have left to do is babysit tonight and then it's officially the weekend...woohoo!!!! ~Kendra~
