Thanks for that, I needed that. I was trying to get more involved in school this year and applied to be part of some comities but I got rejected by all :( I guess it's hard to compete when everybody around is so career-oriented ... Not too sure what to do with all the free time I have now. All this rejection made me realize it probably means my CV is shit and I should start volunteering or something to fill it out a bit more.
More radio people! Now is actually a good time to get involved, seeing as how Friday is International College Radio Day. Stay tuned for a big ole self-reflective post on college radio on Friday.
We don't have a radio and honestly I don't know much about music. My friends find it strange but I've never been passionate with music. I realized that when I begged my parents for an ipod for christmas (back when it was the coolest thing you could own) and ended up barely ever listening to it. The problem is being in comities looks really good on a CV but as an example, they only need about 10 people in the Marketing comity to organize events and all. Of course I can volunteer at the events (i might actually do that) but it's not the same as organizing them. Too many ambitious people competing for the few spots. And I've never done anything impressive career-wise so I'm at a disadvantage and can't get involved. Time to start fixing that before I actually end up on the job market with nothing except a diploma.
