Oct. 31st, 2004 09:52 pmOmg job interview tomorrow morning. First proper job interview ever. Except for one I had at KPMG last summer, and that pretty much sucked. But hey, I can do this. I think. I wasn't nervous until my family descended today and starting telling me what I ought to wear and discussing what will happen "when" I move to Newbury or Chertsey. Now, now I am nervous. Meep :( They mean well, I know, and it's nice that they have faith in me, but now that I've picked out some clothes and packed up a nice bag (not my usual crappy bag) to take, I'm just feeling the start of that "about to hurl" nervousness that I get. Damn it.
I feel like I've eaten nothing but bread, cheese, and cake all weekend. Mostly cake. I want some proper food! I want some pasta! But I can't eat now, because I'm too nervous. Vicious circle, or something.
I've got to get the train at about 8am tomorrow, which will be fun. Heading up to Woking with all the commuters. Yay.
Please feel free to send me good karma tomorrow :)

Remember that even if you don't get the job, it's all good interview practice.

After my last interview, I called my mother, read Brokeback Mountain (picture my face in the cafe when Ennis takes Jack one morning), then I did other things. That day I was fine. It was the next six that killed me.
Cheering, aren't I?
But best of luck tomorrow. I know you'll be brilliant. You're smart, articulate, and you have boots and a bag. They'll adore you. :)

I have boots. Nothing can go wrong! :)

Go look like an adult.
