I HAVE MOVED!

alright everyone,
i have a confession.
i'm not/wasn't happy with blogspot.
it had the editing stuff like background
and whatnot, but i like the set up more
of wordpress, so that is where i now reside.
if you liked me enough: follow me there::::

future is looking bright!



about a week ago, i was really stressing about my life. my future. my everything seemed to be a stake. i couldn't help but think that the decisions i was making weren't going to benefit me or make me happy in the future.

mom had called me one morning and asked what i was doing and i told her i had just gotten up and i had this killer headache from all the thinking i had done the prior night. i was really trying to figure out if making education my major would work for me. and she told me that i needed to follow my heart and do what made me happy. all i thought was, of course mom is saying this, she's mom! haha. but she also told me to take a look at the undergraduate bulletin that i had gotten my freshman year. so this is what i did.

& I FIGURED MY LIFE OUT! (how does mom always seem to be right?) i found a major that completely suits me and what i really want my life to be like. i can't wait to start the classes for it. so, my new and FINAL major (yes, i've changed a million times - well, like twice before this change) to finish out school is going to be business with a concentration in marketing and possibly a minor in real estate. with this degree (a b.b.a. to be exact), i can manage a store, a region of a store, or an entire company! i never thought i would want a management job so much, but it's almost final! & j is so sweet, he told me that he completely supports me with what i chose to do and he can totally see me in this field. he also said, he loves a woman in charge. ♥
(the song that got me through all of this is "successful" by drake. amazing.)

commuting dilemmas


wow, i can't believe how long it has been since i posted last.

i'm sure all of you think that i have gone and found something else to do and i have. but it's just college. this semester is proving to be a tough one, but i know it's only testing me because it already knows that i can handle it.


last week was a tough tough week. it seemed like i was going to collapse everything that was going on. all week i was going straight from a long day in class to work that night. i would get out at 11:05am and have to be a work at 12:15pm. i'm sure youre thinking, "well, that and there's an hour right there that seems like a break." but in all actuality, it's far from one. see, my school decided to switch things up with the parking schedule and change a commuter parking lot into a faculty/staff parking lot. and there was already limited parking to begin with. so, now, i park a little further away from all my class. anyway, by the time i get out of class (which is all the way across campus; furthest from the parking lot i am allowed to park in) it takes me 15 mins to get from class to the car and then i have to dump my million lb books in the trunk and fight with the locks to get in the actual car. then when i get into the car, it's usually hot and i have to roll the windows down before i close the door and put on some music because i cannot drive in silence (unless i have a headache) and by this time i've already lost another 12 mins!


so, as of now i've lost 27mins/1hr10mins. that's a big chunk. after all that is done, i then have to fight traffic the next 9 miles to get to work and it has and never will be a pretty thing to be in and this usually takes 20 mins & someone forbid i get hungry on the way to work (i don't have a break in between classes to eat) i have to pull into the drive thru and wait about 15 mins for them to hurry up with my fast food (which is seemingly never really fast).


at this point, i have now lost 62mins/70 mins. this leaves me with 8 mins to eat and run into work, if i want to burn my tounge in the process. (by the time i get home from work&school, i usually do homework or sleep.) if you read all of this now you know why i have not been blogging.


p.s. thanks for reading my little rant there. blogging should resume soon.
