Well recently I've been looking for a job and I was looking to apply myself in Micheal's or the new pet store that just opened. Michaels I can send my resume online and the pet store I have to look into it.

I've been inside the pet store and it looks very neat/tidy most likely because its new. There was one disappointment... no pets!!! Just food, toys and things for the pets... D:. I figure since it just opened they may want people but where I really want to work at is Michaels. All those arts and crafts sound great to me. Then again they seem to have a whole bunch of people already that they must have a waiting list.

Well, to get the point I'm nervous and I have yet to even send anything in. I keep thinking about it like... What if I don't get a job at all? What if I do get the job but the pay is low and they don't give enough hours? What if I'm not good enough and the people don't like me there? What if I make a total fool of myself the first day? What if I fail at it all and get fired?

All these "What if?" thoughts are running through my head. I know, I won't know if I don't try and I keep telling myself that. But still I can't help it and in the end I'm not getting anything done. All of it gives me this choking lump in my throat feeling which obviously doesn't feel good.

As the expression goes, "don't cross the bridge until you get to it." And to use another trite expression, but one that gives good advice, "Take one day at a time!"

I suggest you apply to both and see what happens. I know it's easier said than done, but try not to worry. If the job isn't what you want, then you can keep applying; some money is better than none at all, etc.

ARTS AND CRAFTS WOOO!! YEAH. Pets you have to clean up after and creativity is therapeutic. Be inspired.

Just focus on all that creative inspiration and think of nothing else.
Your thoughts, what ifs will try to creep in and get a hold of you.
Never mind anything. Just stay focused on all those amazing possibilities.
Creativity. Yeah! Imagine what you could make with all that stuff in front of you.
How happy you'll be. This is exactly what society needs are people like you.
