I think I may have realized what I should be doing as a career!


I'm 25 and the clock is ticking.  I'm really starting to frustrate myself because I have no idea where I want to go career wise in life.  The past few days I've been pretty stressed just thinking about what it is that I should be doing, what is it that I'm passionate about?  

I've been thinking and thinking and the things that I like the most are fashion and celebrity gossip.  I LOVE clothes, I love buying them, I love looking at them I love helping my friends pick out outfits.  I love celebrities, I love the drama, the scandals and I love seeing their ever changing looks.  I NEED to be involved in the celebrity/fashion world.  This is what I like, that is where I belong.  I don't know how I'm going to get into this but I want to figure out how.  I do not live near LA or New York so in my head a career in this industry seems impossible.  I decided today to get on craigslist and go to the job postings and just type in "fashion" to see what comes up.  Usually it's sales jobs (done that in the past, something I do not wish to repeat), but I wanted to look and see if maybe something comes up.

So I type in "fashion" and hit search.  Here pops up information about a fashion magazine called Zimbio.  This is an online fashion magazine based in San Carlos, super close to me!  I could not believe my eyes as I was reading this.  A fashion magazine within 15 minutes of where I live??  Are you serious??  I got onto their website and it is absolutely amazing and stunning.  A mix of celebrity and fashion, everything I love right there before my eyes!  I directed myself to the job page and it asks to send them an email stating why you would be good to work for their company.  I have to write to them.  I'm not expecting anything to come from it but I want to at least try and see what happens.  I could not imagine if I could get into a job there what a blessing it would be at such a confusing time in my life.  Cross your fingers for me, you never know, it doesn't hurt to try!  If nothing comes from it then at least I tried and I will go back to my cube and think of other ways out...
