How I did it
It made me
happy 
How I did it: I borrowed two from a co-worked, checked out one from the library, and bought the last one at Wal-mart while on vacation at the beach. Read it all the way through. Read how I did it…

so frustrated
23 months ago
I’ve been sending out resumes for months with no luck. Then I got an interview at a library but didn’t get hired. I have a B.A. in English and want to work in publishing or with books or something related, but other than having worked at a bookstore I have no experience. I don’t want to be a receptionist or work in customer service the rest of my life, but I don’t know what to do.
