doing moderately better as long as i don't think about it.

currently torn: my employment options are sort of slim, and i've a chance at an unpaid internship out east. it would sort of fuck with my summer, but i suspect my summer to already be quite fucked. the reasonable part of me wants to believe i'll find something here, but another part of me really wants to go "fuck it, if i can get this i'll do it, it'll be good for my theatrical resume" etc. and it'd be nice to be sure about something in my immediate future. as long as i have my ms office/typing skills i'll be able to get "normal" work in those areas once i'm not on the schedule of K crazy, so i might as well build my -other- resume. on the other hand, it's july-august, which leaves june in a lil' bit of limbo as well as august once i'm back (need to find out from Alyssa when our next lease starts, also). i dunno and anyway still have to apply. i mean, i really want to make money, but i also really want to be able to be certain about something. bleh i dunno.

in other news, finallyhaveadirectingscenepickedthankGOD. ugh. that was sort of hell.

also, i reaaaallllyyyy should be in bed right now.

I say go for the thing out east. Why pass up the opportunity? What if that opportunity never comes up again? :P

It's up to you. If you think the internship could help you in the long run and it would be a lot of fun, go for it. I imagine you'd enjoy the adventure. But work on your "normal" resume now, even burger-flipping jobs are very difficult to find right now (I know, duh, but I'm in the middle of it and can confirm). Also the theater stuff could really help beef up your normal resume, too, don't discount art experience. I told a bunch of stockbrokers I wrote a novel and they were impressed enough to hire me.

It's true - most good interviewer's understand that different things on your resume mean different skills and whatnot that can be applied to the workplace. i.e, babysitting - someone trusted you with their kids, especially big with older interviewers with children/grandchildren of their own, internships and stuff - practice in a professional environment, even if it's not identical to their own.

In short, go for the internship!
