Let's talk about cruises! In December of last year, I went on a 5-day cruise with my boyfriend and his friends to Mexico. I read through every article and blog post I could find about our trip before we left, and I'm so glad that I did. I was the most prepared and it definitely paid off.

I'm the type of person who gets really nervous during interviews. Unfortunately, I'm not the type of person who can hide their nerves easily. When I graduated from college, I went through multiple interview processes, desperately seeking any type of accounting job that I could get. I was under a mountain of pressure from my parents (and myself), had no…
