I've been job searching almost everyday since we've gotten here, and I think it's by far been the hardest thing for me. Well, now I don't think it was that hard, but looking back it did require a lot of persistence and perseverance. I think myself, and others included, have been to over 40 places to see if they were hiring. A lot. Many were lost causes and gave us false hope. Although even with those no's, I think it was harder seeing other people get jobs before us and rejoicing in their victory. Don't get me wrong, I'm incredibly happy for them especially because I know how hard it can be, but with that in mind those without jobs begin to feel as if there's a greater time pressure on us.
I did get a job though. It's a glorious job at the local Bed Bath and Beyond. And when I say glorious I mean it in it's entirety. I feel so so blessed to have gotten the opportunity, and I'll be working with a few friends I've made, Jenny and Tim, which will make the job even better. I've never felt so happy to be hired. PRAISE THE LORD.
I've been standing in the background a bit. Coming here I expected to be a social butterfly, but ended up being more of a wallflower. I don't mind it. If anything I feel comfortable, but I still have that feeling inside of me telling me to take more advantage of the time and people here. I know I will, but it'll be in a timely fashion. I think that the time I've been spending alone or one on one with others have been in hopes of figuring out myself better. I brought heavy baggage here, and I'm trying to unload it with solitude and intimacy. Solitude as in time with myself and God, and intimacy with others who I feel can speak truth into my life.
I'm praying and praying for my experience here to be fruitful. I know the beginning isn't what I anticipated, which is why I seem to think I'm having a harder time adjusting. But I know God moves in glorious ways so I have faith.

Welcome to SIT Hub Marketing today is liking a chart shift – from traditionally being a ‘pay to play’ model where large groups could get away without actually employing their clients. The true democratization of satisfied and feelings began by the internet has been fast forwarded by the atomic cancer of social media. Sometime in the near future, we’ll access our TV, internet, phone, radio, music, photos, videos and more through a single appliance of our choice.
