SURPRISEEEEEEEEE

I am officially employeddddddddd!! WOOO God is so good! It is exactly what I want to be doing and it will open doors to any career I could possibly want!!

So here is the deal:

I got a 6 month fellowship at a non profit called Net Impact (read more about it at netimpact.org)...it merges my love for non profits, business, and economics in ways I could never have dreamed. I will be working with all the keynote speakers at the annual conference...this years is teh CEO of GE, which is HUGE. Apparently everyone who has had this job has gone on into incredible jobs after, so that is really exciting!! The office is this cute trendy loft in SOMA, with a bunch of cute (and educated) hipsters that work there! Right up my alley!

The downside? It only pays a stipend of $600/month which isnt even enough to cover my rent. The job is 40-50 hours per week and I will be working at my old job 20 hours a week doing freelance grant writing to make extra money. ALSO, I picked up a consulting job for about 10 ours a week...ergo....I will be working 80 hours a week for the next 6 months just so I can pay rent. Sweet. Please pray that God provides because I literally am SO stressed about money, but truly feel that this is the job that God has for me right now.

Anyways, just wanted to fill you guys in!! Thank you for all your prayers and encouragement over the last month! Love you all!!

xoxo,
Karissa
