Real Life Fears

Hey all!
I can't tell you how much better I felt after reading Laura and Jessica's thoughts on the Career Fair! Although I am still anxious about my future it is a relief to know that I'm not in this alone and that every other senior on Miami's campus is going through the same thing. I have lived in the bubble college creates and become comfortable with it. I am reading to move on to the "real world" yet I am reluctant and fearful that I will sink instead of swim. Just as Laura, I am going to the career fair tomorrow with no specific expectations. I have nothing to lose and only experience to gain. I must say that despite my attempted optimism for the situation, I am feeling very discouraged after looking through the list of participating companies. As a non business major, I feel the odds are stacked slightly against me. I am also worried that my aspirations to follow a career path in event planning is too narrow. I am very excited about the prospect of my mentor being able to shed light on this particular field and the opportunities it holds for someone in my position. I feel she will have a wealth of knowledge not available to me at tomorrow's career fair. I just keep telling my self to breath slowly and be flexible, that everything will work out for the best. I hear my grandpa in the back of my head whispering "Que sera, sera" - "what will be, will be"....
