Job Fairs As Told By Charlotte La Bouff
Princess Perspective

Job fairs are a great place for networking and interviews. However, a weekend long job fair can induce a variety of emotions from misery to ecstasy. And who better to explain mood swings than Charlotte La Bouff from "Princess and the Frog."

1. When you wake up at 7 a.m. to get ready...

Usually after driving six-plus hours to get to the convention.

2. When you walk into the fair on the first day with all the confidence of a freshly weened lamb.

3. When that confidence swiftly disappears when you see the vast amount of companies and people.

There are so many companies to interview with and so little time!

4. When you're next in line for the interview.

Get all your panicking out now cause in a few seconds you're going to have to be calm, cool and collected.

5. When you walk up to initiate the handshake.

You're fabulous!

6. When you explain your resume/portfolio and realize they couldn't care less.

7. When your interview goes terribly, but you have another at the next booth.

Maybe this time...I'll be lucky...just maybe...

8. When you struggle to keep a smile as they explain their program's entire history and mission.

9. When you find out they have a stipend and housing.

$300 a week with free housing on the beach? Yes please.

10. When *that* company keep approaching you for an interview.

You want me to work for free? I said, "No, thank you."

11. When you interview with your dream company.

12. When you get your dream job.

Whether you attended SETC or some other job fair, best of luck!

For as long as I can remember, I have been listening to The Beatles. Every year, my mom would appropriately blast “Birthday” on anyone’s birthday. I knew all of the words to “Back In The U.S.S.R” by the time I was 5 (Even though I had no idea what or where the U.S.S.R was). I grew up with John, Paul, George, and Ringo instead Justin, JC, Joey, Chris and Lance (I had to google N*SYNC to remember their names). The highlight of my short life was Paul McCartney in concert twice. I’m not someone to “fangirl” but those days I fangirled hard. The music of The Beatles has gotten me through everything. Their songs have brought me more joy, peace, and comfort. I can listen to them in any situation and find what I need. Here are the best lyrics from The Beatles for every and any occasion.

Small towns certainly have their pros and cons. Many people who grow up in small towns find themselves counting the days until they get to escape their roots and plant new ones in bigger, "better" places. And that's fine. I'd be lying if I said I hadn't thought those same thoughts before too. We all have, but they say it's important to remember where you came from. When I think about where I come from, I can't help having an overwhelming feeling of gratitude for my roots. Being from a small town has taught me so many important lessons that I will carry with me for the rest of my life.

I can't say "thank you" enough to express how grateful I am for you coming into my life. You have made such a huge impact on my life. I would not be the person I am today without you and I know that you will keep inspiring me to become an even better version of myself.

Course registration at college can be a big hassle and is almost never talked about. Classes you want to take fill up before you get a chance to register. You might change your mind about a class you want to take and must struggle to find another class to fit in the same time period. You also have to make sure no classes clash by time. Like I said, it's a big hassle.

This semester, I was waitlisted for two classes. Most people in this situation, especially first years, freak out because they don't know what to do. Here is what you should do when this happens.
