Applying  To Internships As Told By It's Always Sunny
Fansided

Once you hit the upperclassmen status, the real world feels a heck of a lot closer, and there are millions of things that you need to do. Whether you know how to go about doing all those things is another story. Nowadays, getting internships is basically expected and it's a lot easier said than done. There are lots of things that go through your mind as you are applying, and some of them make you seem like an insane person who should never get a job. But good news for you, It's Always Sunny in Philadelphia perfectly explains this grueling process.

1. Everyone keeps asking what you are doing this summer or after graduation and it's the most stressful thing in the entire world.

2. When you first start your search there are millions that seem so interesting. Working at Google? Sure. Helping out on movie sets in Hollywood? Yup, sign me up.


3. You start saving a bunch of the cool applications saved on your desktop. Although, you plan on getting back to them later because trying to write a cover letter seems a little too hard right now.


4. As you make your resume, you start to worry that you have absolutely no accomplishments. You begin to get mad at future companies that tell you that you aren't qualified enough for their internship because obviously you are the most amazing, funny and charming person you have ever met.

5. Once the resume is finished, you set aside a day that you are going to be "productive" and apply to a bunch of places. You will not leave your computer until you have a possible future and there is no shame in the things you do in order to stay focused.

6. You apply to a few and then all the sudden you get a face-to-face interview with a company. You get dressed up and wonder if people can tell you have never worn business professional clothes before.

7. But you give yourself a pep talk and remind yourself that the interview is all about how you come off.

8. You figure that the questions for this first round will be simple. It will be stuff you can breeze through, right? It won't be until they offer you a second interview that they could ever get into the intense stuff.

9. But then they start asking you serious questions that you aren't sure how to answer...things get pretty scary.

10. Then you finally get through the interview and they ask you if you have any questions. You should have questions, right? Why didn't you plan a few questions?!


11. You leave assuming that you will never get a job and that this whole process was a huge waste of your time. But then you tell yourself that it will be okay. This one was just a learning experience, right?

12. A miracle happens, you get called back. They want to offer you a position. You are the amazing, smart, hilarious, charming person you always knew you were and here is the proof.

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.

Ever since I could remember, it was a treat to receive Easter Bread made by my grandmother. We would only have it once a year and the wait was excruciating. Now that my grandmother has gotten older, she has stopped baking a lot of her recipes that require a lot of hand usage--her traditional Italian baking means no machines. So for the past few years, I have missed enjoying my Easter Bread.

Top 10 Reasons My School Rocks!

Why I Chose a Small School Over a Big University.

I was asked so many times why I wanted to go to a small school when a big university is so much better. Don't get me wrong, I'm sure a big university is great but I absolutely love going to a small school. I know that I miss out on big sporting events and having people actually know where it is. I can't even count how many times I've been asked where it is and I know they won't know so I just say "somewhere in the middle of Wisconsin." But, I get to know most people at my school and I know my professors very well. Not to mention, being able to walk to the other side of campus in 5 minutes at a casual walking pace. I am so happy I made the decision to go to school where I did. I love my school and these are just a few reasons why.
