So this past Thursday (September 23rd) I went to this gathering of prospective employers & eager potential employees (students) called Senior Reception. Sadly, there was nothing there for me. Even the potential jobs I saw with HR firms just did not seem appealing. Most of the employers were from Finance & Accounting Firms, and I really don't have an affinity towards anything math based, so I stayed away from them. Unfortunately those I talked to seemed more interested in my suit, my locs, or the piercing in my eyebrow. I guess I must have been the only Black lesbian they saw on this particular day.
Needless to say, Senior Reception was a bust, but I did get to look sexy in my suit. This experience helped to affirm why I want to be an entrepreneur. When I hire people, I want to find anyone who's capable of doing the job. No one needs to fit a cookie cutter mold of anything. Anti-Corporate culture. Maybe I should focus a career in the arts....hmm...I'll tell more of my art inspired ideas at a later time. And I'll edit this post to show off some pictures of myself lol.
Until my return...check out this video from this group my little sister showed me. It's hilarious!

*edit* Okay so here are so of those pictures I promised. After going to senior reception, I hosted a program at my residence hall (I'm a Resident Assistant), and we went to eat out this fancy restaurant named Max Brenner's.

So the my whole day wasn't a total waste, but it was great to just hang out with my girls later on. They really cheered me up/ :)
