This is just a random “life” post which I realized I hadn’t done one of those in a long time! You know the times, all bloggers have them, when you contemplate the things you write about and why you write them. Lately, I feel like I’ve been concerned with followers, and that’s obviously NOT what I truly, deep down, want my blog to be about. I want it to be successful, sure, but I don’t want to lose who I am in the process. This isn’t going to be a long blog post about that or anything because 1. I kind of already wrote one of those not too long ago here and 2. I’ve been seeing posts like that up everywhere lately, but it’s a good thing to be reminded about. So, instead of updating you on another trip or posting up a recipe, I’m just going to update you real fast on my life, because honestly, it seems like the easiest post to write and I’m too lazy to fiddle with a bunch of pictures at the moment! haha
Life has be CRAY-CRAY! Over the past month, I’ve been to Louisville, Alternative Spring Break in the Delta, Memphis, and a few trips home to my parents and then this weekend I’ll be in Houston! I have felt like I’ve been living out of suitcase! In between each trip, I don’t have the time to unpack, get my apartment together, and then re-pack. It’s more like, I wash a random load of clothes and keep what’s clean left in my bag and use it when I need it and then just re-pack from there! My apartment is a complete disaster! I live with both of my sisters and I love them to death, but they can’t keep the apartment clean while I’m gone to save a life! I don’t know why that is, but with 3 of us here and we all have super busy schedules with work and school, it just has stayed a hot mess! So I’m excited to say that I have Thursday, Friday, and Monday off! Thursday and Friday to travel to Houston and do a little cleaning before I go, and then Monday to catch up on EVERYTHING after a long month of traveling!
Then there’s me applying for jobs! I need a job in August and I’m pretty scared I won’t have one. I know God will provide and again, I’ve been praying that one up for a while now too! If you have any Marketing or Management positions in your area, feel free to let me know! I’m up for moving as long as I can find myself a good job! My ideal cities at the moment are Houston, Seattle, and New York, but again, anywhere is fine!
I went and saw Oz the Great and Powerful and absolutely LOVED it!! Seriously Disney, you’re so great! I love you! It was such a unique story and I really enjoyed it, although there were times that I wanted to break out in song… “One short day, In the Emerald City… ” don’t worry, I didn’t, but I need to go see WICKED again now!
Also, I’ll be getting a sponsor tab soon! I won’t be charging or anything, it’ll be mostly for blog button swaps, but I want to have it available in the future just in case I start charging (a super low fee, of course) and then I would either just use that money to give to a charity or non-profit organization or use it to sponsor other blogs.
I guess that’s enough for now. Happy Wednesday!
God WILL provide a job for you when you least expect it!! My current job came about literally the day after I graduated college in 2011. It was unreal and I was incredibly thankful for it, but God has funny timing so it will happen 🙂
I just went back and read this post and I just want you to know I’m thinking about you! I hope you enjoy your long weekend (you deserve it!!). It sounds like you are doing a lot of great things right now, but that stress of finding a job cannot be easy. I see NYC is on your list of cities, so if you ever are up here for an interview or anything, I am less than 2 hours from the city (by car or trains) and the Hartford airport can be soooo much easier to fly into than NYC airports!
Living out of a suitcase stinks! I still haven’t unpacked from spring breaks and I came home last Tuesday. 🙂 sending prayers up for you for the job hunt. The perfect job is out there somewhere. Enjoy the rest of the week!
I’m not liking that Birmingham wasn’t on that job city list!! HA! Praying for you! I know you can do it, too! I’ll be in Houston in two weeks!! So excited!! It will be my first trip there!
Sounds like you’ve been a busy bee! Hang in there with the job search, I’m in the same boat!
Hang in there, friend! Here for you! Praying for the job aspect as well 🙂
Is your boss doing things that you could report to someone in a higher position, such as a corporate office?
I hate when getting too busy with work to clean. It’s the worst.
