....the Unemployed.

Name:  Leilani
Occupation: Currently unemployed

9:00 AM-ish: Wake up, its another day!

10:00 AM: Catch up on emails.  Ichat with friends, set up meetings with potential employers, send out resumes.

11:00 AM: Hike Runyon or Fryman Canyon....exercise is great for the mind!  Meditate on what to do next with my life.

1:30 PM:  Meet with John (a TV editor and old college friend) for lunch at the Farmer's Market.  Pitch ideas for blogs and businesses, share job info and catch up on each others' lives.

3:00 PM: Work on some new jewelry designs and fix a few broken pieces for my friend, Cheryl.

4:30 PM: A trip to the public library to check out books on Landscape Architecture (a possible career path?)

6:00 PM: Sign up for a UCLA extension course: Intro to Landscape Architecture (its the beginning of a 4 year certificate program.)  I'm unsure if this is what I want to do with my life, so an introductory class seems like a good way to make an informed decision.

7:30 PM: A night at the Ahmanson Theatre with my best friend, Cynthia.  We have season tickets for all of their shows. Tonight: South Pacific....so fun!

11:30 PM: Off to bed.  Good night!
