Well.. all my friends (minus 3 maybe) have real, big kid jobs. I, on the other hand, wait tables at the tiniest restaurant on earth, spend the majority of my free time stalking monster.com for possible jobs in pittsburgh and my hometown, and pray someone will appreciate the thoughts that I write down, which actually happened!!
I'm not sure how easy it is to get something published onto this website, but I could care-freaking-less because I am ecstatic that someone enjoyed what I wrote. Maybe you will enjoy it, too!

Check it out and let me know what you think!
I am still feeling a bit discouraged, but my resume is perfected, I am doing some freelance work writing a website and product descriptions for a frozen yogurt company, and hopefully gaining some job experience that will only add to my skill set.
Does anyone have any experience in freelance writing? I need some help figuring out rates and how much to charge for the work. I bought a book called My So-Called Freelance Life: How To Survive as a Creative Professional for Hire and so far I have been learning a lot, but any type of in put on how to gain a bigger client base and actually make decent money would be greatly appreciated.
Good luck out there, college grads. We're gonna pull through soon. The six-month wait period for an actual job is almost up.
