A Bucket of Blessings

I had a really good week. I don't know if you've ever felt like God just splashed a big bucket of blessing on top of your head, but it's a pretty good feeling. If you read my post from last week, you'll notice that last Monday was really good. Tuesday, I did homework (because I'm a good girl and don't procrastinate). It was a rather uneventful day. Wednesday, I saw some of my favorite people at school (you know who you are). Thursday, again, did homework, and prepared for my job interview which was to take place on Friday. Friday, now Friday was a long, exciting day.

I woke up earlier than I had been all week =P Took my Mum to work, my brother to school, then went home to get ready for my interview. I.was.so.nervous. This was my first interview ever, so I think I had good cause to be nervous. Answers to questions that weren't even asked at the interview were wracking through my brain, like this: "What is your greatest weakness?" Do I have a weakness? Or, are weaknesses uniquenesses? Should I be proud of my weakness?, "What can you bring, that is new, to our store? Well, I'm a pretty perky person. No, no, Ana! They do not want to hear that! Think of something more professional! Ummm.... Thinking of something was more difficult than I thought it would be. I've decided that my mind really doesn't have a professional thinking process. I mean, really, I can't even say statistics. That's a word that people use in the professional realm every day, right? But, moving on with my story, I was really nervous for this interview. Even listening to Relient K didn't help me feel better! And, that's saying something.

I ended up having to park about a mile away from the store that I needed to be at. Not really a mile, but when you're wearing high-heels, walking as far as I did is practically like going up the incline. I got there about 10 minutes early (Not a bad time ;]). I actually made friends with one of the people that I was interviewing with! I figured, it's a group interview. Better to make friends than to make it a competition, right? So, we talked for a long while until the manager was ready to speak to us.

The interview wasn't really harmful. Not so much an interview as an orientation. She basically told us what the job included, what she expected of us, and asked if we had questions. Basically, she said all she had to do was make sure our references were up to par, and she would get back to us by the 3rd, which is tomorrow!! Turns out I was stressing out for no big reason. Haha! My fun week didn't end there.

I went to frozen yogurt with my clan because Bri was home from college for a few days. It was super duper funn.

Buuut, Sunday, Tabitha, Brooke and I took a road trip up to Lakewood to see Bri at college, and also see this wonderful music artist who goes by the name Colton Dixon. His concert was phenomenal. Everything was so God focused and worshipful, it didn't even feel like a concert. I think we all came away happier than when we went in. Sunday was a good day. I only got lost once! Score!

Seriously though, God dumped a bucket of blessings on me. I'm so happy that He's in my life :)

Be Bold. Be Blessed. Be Bodacious.
