Aaah! First times are scary aren’t they? The first time you fell off your bike or fell in love. The first time you cut class or cut yourself while cooking. 恐いでしょう?
At 5:00pm today I’ll have my first job interview at a soba restaurant in Manhattan.
I was lucky to get all my other jobs. I was nominated for my first job at a web magazine as a Web Design Supervisor by a teacher. As soon as I sent in my resume I was accepted as a Website Administrator at a record company, for my second job. My third job came after volunteering at a language school for a few months.
This will be my first time to dress up, to practice, and worry. I’m so nervous. They asked if I knew Japanese, and I told them I know the basics. Will they ask me to speak in Japanese? Will I understand what they say? I’ve never worked in a restaurant…will they accept me that way? How hurt will I be if I don’t get the job? What am I going to wear? What should I do with my hair?
The interview is in about 15 hours. I’ll let you all know how it goes!
