And so the adventure continues...

If someone told me on my graduation day that in a few months I'd be working with animals, I would have laughed and said, I'm sorry that's not part of my plan. I used to have adults tell me all the time that my plans would change, things would be different than I expect, and that I'd end up just going where things take me. I never took this seriously. I always politely smiled, nodded my head in agreement and said something along the lines of 'oh, well that'll be okay'. All the while I'd be thinking, 'yeah right buddy, you don't know how passionate I am about becoming X or how driven I am to completing Y'.

I guess grown ups know more than us kids after all...

What's really awesome about my job though is that I actually really like it. I like the people I work with and most of the dogs and cats that I see and they all seem to like me as well. What's even more awesome is that the company is going to create a whole new position just for me. Currently I do anything they ask of me; which I'm pretty sure is typical when you're the newest/youngest person in an office. I have yet to complain about any of these tasks though...I've really enjoyed each experience they've thrown my way.

For the last couple of days my work has consisted of an arts and crafts project. We're working on a new marketing campaign and I'm creating displays for the events we're doing this week. My living room is covered with construction paper, glue sticks, photos of our VIP members, greek letters, and rhinestones. And yes, it all actually does belong together.

My position is in marketing. I currently work at all of our events and will soon also be working with all of our clients as the company's sales contact. Basically, whenever someone inquires about our services they will be directed to me, I will help them get set up within our computer system and then coordinate a meeting for them with a member of our team. I'll also continue working at events and doing other projects on the side.

It's wonderful...I can't think of anything negative to say about my job. Life really does have a way of working itself out.
