thank you universe. this day gets better every minute.

Watching Kesha on stage right now and tweeting my heart out for @MuchMusic. Being here is blowing my mind. I’m soaking up every minute.

Last night was so much fun I can’t even tell you.  Also, just got an email from Virgin American & Klout they are sending me to LA. I love life.  I love you.  I have so much to tell you but for now I just show you my dress from Peach Berserk made SPECIALLY for tonight’s MMVA’s. It’s going to be auctioned off after for a charity in Uganda. Tell you about that tomorrow.

Have an awesome day.

i’ll tell you later

I just don’t have time right now. Lots  to check of my list today at the office.

Totes looking forward to getting home to my new bed and sitting at my new desk and writing stories and drawing in my sketch book. I’m so excited for Florida next week, five whole days of vacation. Gonna pop by Peach Berserk to talk blogging before I’m back at the homestead. Exciting projects happening here and there.

Happy Monday :)

so, you wanna get a job in social media? (or any job)

This has come up in conversations a couple times over the last few weeks. There are lots of jobs out there and with the openness of the internet, you can find them and they can find you. You know I’m really big on attitude and positivity. As a former recruiter, I give you a couple things to think about. Now, to me, this stuff seems common sense but I’ve seen otherwise.

You have to think like an employer, if they Google you and find your blog, twitter, FB, what type of feeling are they gonna get from you? How are they going to perceive your attitude as a potential employee?

Here’s a couple things NOT to do:

  • tweet/blog about how hard of a time you are having finding a job
  • tweet how hard up you are for money
  • Complain on your blog about how life is hard/how busy you are doing nothing
  • Whine about not hearing back from an interview
  • Complain about not having a job
  • BE NEGATIVE (downer)

Here’s a couple things TO do:

  • Follow positive people who have jobs you’d like to have; learn from them
  • Blog about things related to jobs you’d like to have
  • Blog/tweet about things you’ve done that would be assets to a company
  • Think about how good it will feel to have a new job
  • Read articles and comment about them
  • follow hashtags about jobs/hiring/your field
  • attend tweetups & meetups in your area
  • BE POSITIVE

There ARE dream jobs out there I promise! I got myself into the job I wanted and I have other friends that have done it too ex. Erin, Abby, CrystalZack.  Erin just published this post on Make Work Meaningful about working at a startup and finding that dream job, I recommend checking it out.

I fell in love, I fell in love with my daughters boyfriend.
[sobs]

I’m watching Something’s Gotta Give and just laughed my ass off at her typing out her love story, crying hysterically. She’s so funny, Dianne Keaton. She’s  a writer in this one and she writes the best story into a play.  I’m thinking about writing a script… Well, I’ve been writing it in my head my whole life! HA! She writes a play about her love story in the movie. I’ve been in a couple plays. This one guy I went to school with wrote a play for Sears Fest called, What Wasn’t Said. I was in Guys and Dolls and a few other things before high school. All the worlds a stage, it is. I loved being on stage growing up. I was looking for a quote from this movie but couldn’t find it, so I read the script online. I had read ahead and then it just came, weird reading the script then hearing it. “A Woman to Love” her play was called, he said that’s what she was. I think I’m gonna wear my glasses more often. The old office was a big loft space. I used to take lots of photos there. One day I took like a hundred of things around my desk. I had heaps of crap around there.
