As for this week, it was eventful and uneventful all at once. I drove home from Birmingham on Monday after an interview I had that morning. When I got home, our puppy, Scout, was so shocked to see me. I think if her tail were wagging any faster it might have come off. Most of the week was spent unpacking, catching up on behind the scenes blog things, and playing with Scout at home.
On Thursday, I went to Mobile and got lunch with Nell. We went to Virginia’s Health Food Store if you’re familiar with Mobile and then decided to walk somewhere for an afternoon treat. It started raining during our walk which made sitting down with a snack a nice break. Nell starts PA school soon, but luckily we are both starting our next chapter in the same city, Birmingham.
On Friday I was nervous most of the morning since that was the day I was set to find out about the interview I had on Monday. That interview was the third one I had had with the company, and in my mind, it went really well, so I was eager to hear their thoughts. I ended up getting the call right as I was heading to lunch with my grandmother which wasn’t the best timing but fortunately I got the job!! I’ll be working as an Editorial Assistant for one of Hoffman Media Group’s publications and am so excited to start my job learning about the magazine industry in a hands-on way. My grandmother and I celebrated at lunch at Sunset Pointe before I came home to talk on the phone with their HR administrator. That night, my parents celebrated with me over dinner and champagne, and they even brought flowers home as congratulations.
I’m not positive as to when I’ll start, but I am so excited for this position to have worked out and to feel like for the most part all of my ducks are in a row when it comes to moving to Birmingham.
