Last week I went to many panel discussions set up by UW's 6th annual Career Discovery Week. They were all very interesting and helpful in giving me ideas about careers, and I was able to make some new contacts, too. Networking is always stressed as the most helpful thing in finding out about jobs and careers, and I am getting better at it.
Most of all, though, it was good to hear how people's career paths are very unique, and the most rewarding things are to continue to pursue your interests, and keep meeting new people and staying in touch with them, and keep an open and optimistic mind.
isn't she lovely?

Yay you updated!
Career sounds cool.
Networking may be important, but i don't think it's the most important!
Don't worry about it too much (advice of Ai only).
i think this is true for show biz too. it's not what you know, or who you know, it's WHO knows YOU. at least a lot of the time it is.
also, to paraphrase (actually, to downright plagerize), it's not how good you are, it's how good you want to be.
