First day...and I'm lonely!

Today is Brendon's first day of work at his summer job. He left at 9 this morning and gets off around 4. How can I miss him already!?! I need to get a job, but I'm trying to find something that's not stressful so I'm being a little picky. I've done the fast food thing and the waitress thing, and I don't really want to go back to that type of work. It's just so stressful (even though serving is good money). I applied at Target, Blockbuster, and all of our local pharmacies. I have pharmacy experience, and I'd love doing that, but it seems that most of the places I've talked to aren't hiring right now. I thought I would have a job with the pharmacy I've worked at for the past few summers, but they just didn't have any openings this year. They were really sweet and told me they would give me a super reference, but I am still a little sad. It's been a long time since I've done the whole job search thing. The pharmacy always needed me when I needed a job in the past. I can't wait till I graduate and have a degree and this becomes easier.

Oh, I also found out that East TN laid off 160 DCS employees because of budget cuts. I don't know if this will be good or bad for me in a year when I apply. Technically, if they don't hire me (through no fault of my own), I don't have to pay back my scholarship (2 years of working for them) and so all that money will have been free, but I'm just worried that they'll find a loop hole and I'll have to pay it back. I just don't want to be $20,000 in debt and without a job that I was pretty much guaranteed.

I am just so worried and lonely.
