I’m leaving for LA tomorrow! I’m real scared. It’s just that travel makes me nervous and this trip is particularly complicated. I have to get to the train on time, then to the right city train, then to the airport on time and then find where I rent a car, hope they will actually rent it to me and try to drive myself around Los Angeles for the first time I’ve ever even been there (and that is pretty scary since LA is more sprawling than New York, almost as populated and everyone drives, every hour will be rush hour apparently). Also, then I have an interview which, at first I was real confused but basically it’s an interview that’s a little more casual than a job interview and where usually they just talk to you and if they have an actual job opening, they decide if it would be worth it to have you meet the actual person who you would be working for, which means it’s a good sign but also, lots more pressure than I initially anticipated… I’m worried because I want to make a good impression but also, I don’t know what to tell them that sounds like I do want a job but probably can’t move out there immediately, which is the case. Then of course there’s the situation where they don’t even like me, I think that would be bad too! Then I have to get to the airport on time, and the train station! But I guess from there I can relax. Also, thankfully I think that both my flights are direct. But geez, I mean, I’m so excited and I feel really lucky and I’m sure it’ll be lots of fun! But I’m just gonna be freaking out about getting there on time from now until basically the start of my interview ok? Great, good talk.
