On The Home Stretch

Hi all!

I've been meaning to make this post for a few days but I haven't been entirely sure what to say. Even when I only had one week left I couldn't properly find the words to express how I was (and still am) feeling. This one is a hard one for me. Because even though it feels like I'm at the beginning of this crazy adventure it's actually more like the mid-point. Or, if lady luck doesn't see fit to send kindness my way, it could very well be the end.

I've been waiting for this moment, this day, this event, to come for over two years. I've been close before, so close I could taste it, and it wasn't to be. But this time it's real, this time it's coming. After all the preparation that I've done since Spring of 2012 I still can't help but feel unprepared. Maybe not so much for the interview but for everything else. Being rejected. Being accepted. Telling my family.

All of the things that could happen swim around in my head over and over until I'm dizzy for all the chasing. No matter how much I try not to think about how quickly time is passes it still ticks on and on anyway bringing things ever closer.

So in five days from now I will snug in my bed, trying to sleep, thinking of everything that could go wrong and everything that could go right. In five days and some change I'll be interviewing with recruiting. In six days my fate will be well and truly in their hands.

P.s. I'll definitely be doing a Important Stuff and maybe a Story Time on the interview. So keep a look out for that and wish me luck.
