Learning

It's not currently snowing out, but I flipped through some old film photos yesterday and found myself missing the view in this one. I loved being able to experience living in an apartment where the cows would be grazing right across the street and the mountains could pretty much always be seen in the distance.

I had a pretty crazy moment of panic last night, when I re-read a cover letter for a job application I submitted last week and noticed a glaring mistake staring right back at me. In the midst of working on multiple job applications, I had accidentally used the wrong job title in the middle of one of them. I was so surprised, frustrated, and disappointed that my mind felt like it was shattering for a few minutes (Or an hour. Or even longer to be honest. ). The thing is, I've been searching for a full time job for so long now that I want so badly for everyone of them to work and for someone to give me the chance to talk to them. The scary thing is when you start to submit applications over and over again, one after another, it's incredibly hard not to feel burnt out. I have such a crazy desire for one of them to work out, it's almost a little scary. But here's where I'm trying to teach myself a lesson. Maybe, this is a sign that I need to be a little more mindful about how I approach my writing and how I approach these applications. Slow down, but not slow down. Channel that drive into quality over quantity.
