career planning


So...I was online yesterday looking at the new Burberry Brit Rhythm (one of the most beautiful scents I have ever smelled. I sprayed some on myself and then asked myself on a date I liked it so much) and I realized that the cologne is way too far out of my price range. I pulled the sample paper out of my wallet (yes, I kept the department store tester paper) and smelled the cologne. I notice something on the webpage as I took a long whiff of the paper. The "Careers" link. 

It was too tempting. I clicked and registered to apply for a job. I graduate from college soon enough so why not. They had lots of manager positions open. I applied for one in Santa Catarina...Brazil. It was one of the only positions open in Brazil, so I took advantage of that.  I looked through the listings in the USA and found a Spring/Summer marketing internship in Beverly Hills. Huh, duh. I applied quickly for that one. I may not even get a call about it, but I applied for two jobs with a company that makes the best colognes (don't tell my Armanis). 

CARPE DIEM.

Why not?

If I don't try, I'll never get it. The next step is to prepare the most amazing resume to send to Marvel, DC, Dark Horse, Oni Press, IDW and Image when their summer marketing internships open up for applications next month. That's what I want to do. I'm hoping for one of the small press publisher internships to come through so I can live in the Pacific Northwest, but I'm not against a Marvel East Coast internships. A summer in New York would be fun.
