When it rains, it pours

Have you every noticed that when you desparetly need something to happen, it doesn't, but when you don't need it anymore, you recieve too much of it. This seems to be the case with me and jobs. When I really need one, no one wants to hire me, but when I finally break down and settle for any position that brings in an income I am suddenly Miss Popularity. I took a job that I really didn't want, in a field that I have valuable experience, now I have at least three other job offers to consider, and an aplication in for one of the jobs of my dreams. If my luck, or bad luck as the case may be, holds I just might wind up doing what I always wanted to do even before I graduate from college in the fall. What I don't understand is that in order for me to be a fortunate individual in the job market, I have to already have a job that I really don't want or need. Life is strange.
