Finding Work w/a BFA and Almost Zero Experience

Yesterday, a full week after I finished my last class, I sat in front of the computer for eight hours sending out my resume, applying to various jobs and setting up profiles in Monster.com and LinkedIn. The amount of anxiety (and back pain) was ridiculous but I think I have a good start on things. Right now I want to make sure I have a steady job so that I'm not screwed when it comes time for me to pay back my student loans and I feel like if I can do that the rest will fall into place.

So far it's been overwhelmingly discouraging with the only offer being a group interview for a "Financial Service Representative" and I suck very badly at group interviews. The people who excel seem to be obnoxious and so very fake (then again I don't know who actually got hired).

Additionally people keep telling me to go to grad school as if spending an exorbitant amount of money as an undergrad on tuition weren't enough. I don't have the money to do this even if my grad school tuition (which is HIGHER than undergrad credits)were fully paid. I have to start paying back loans in 6 months. This is far too awkward to explain to peers and teachers but I haven't yet mastered the art of dropping the subject without seeming like a gigantic bitch.

I want to work somewhere special like at my school or at Papyrus or a poetry place, but I haven't gotten replies yet and being the completely impatient person that I am I'm completely freaking out.

Despite all this I will prevail and become a household art name (even if I have to work myself into the grave to do it)!
