You guys, I got an internship! I seriously cannot stop smiling right now. So relieved! AND I got hired by a sci-fi/fantasy magazine, so not only will I be getting work experience next semester, I get to do what I love at the same time!
Check it out:
Lightspeed Magazine

I haven't actually accepted the internship yet - I did apply several places and I'd like to hear back from a couple more before I commit to anything, just to be sure I find the best possible fit for me - but it's so incredibly relieving to know I have something for next semester.
(It is crazy stressful knowing you're about to graduate from college and enter the working world, you have no idea, and this isn't even a real job, it's just an internship.)

They say that getting an internship is a great leg up to getting a job at the place you intern at. Sounds like things are about to get awesome in the life of Sapphire.

It's also great experience for a resume, even if you don't get hired by the place you interned for.
