What it says on the tin. I'm proud of myself? I still have so much work to do.

It seems like a fun position, too. The hiring manager was friendly, I think I did a good job at mantaining professionalism. Hopefully that gets my foot in the door? I have an audition to record. I hope that the position isn't too competitive. Every single job seems insanely competitive these days, with ghost listings and the recession and all that. I really need a job. I need a better income to save up for moving out, but more importantly something to make me worthy.

I'm a little guilty that I'm looking at this position when my the job is my girlfriend's passion and I'm basically taking it away from her. I wish I could give her my spot so she could do what she loves. I talked to her about it. She says she doesn't mind, but the guilt still oozes in my chest.

I'm also worried about the schedule. It requires about a mile of walking per day, and 2 weekdays a week minimum for hours. Normally a person could do this no problem, but my disabilities have me worried. I need far more rest time than a typical young adult. What if it causes flare ups and I fall behind in college? What if I get sick too much (immunocompromised) and get fired? I have to take what I can get. Arthritis is a cruel monster.

Anyway, I'm gonna try and see the bright side of things. I'm proud of myself for doing the interview. Wish me luck in getting the position? I hope you all have a wonderful day. I'm going to reward myself with a shower...

Congratulations on the job interview.

If you really want this, don't set limitations for yourself by guilt-tripping or worrying about having to walk.

You gotta do what you gotta do, you know? Once you earn some money you can Uber to work (assuming its available where you are?)

But the key is to trust that it's all going to work out.

I know that sounds hokey and cheesy, but it's the truth.

Good luck, and I hope you succeed in this.
