Been a while

So it has been a long time since I've written on here..

 I'm still going to the school of my dreams
---Not doing so well, but what can I do?

 I'm trying to have more fun though, I believe I talked about doing things that I wouldn't normally do in one of my previous posts... like two years ago.

 Anyway! I decided to join the ballroom team at my school.
I took lessons from one of the friends I made in the dorms, and I ended up actually making the team

 I had to try out with a bunch of girls and I actually made it.

 It was quite the experience. I never thought that I could be a dancer, but it was something that I really wanted to do. so I went for it. I was on the team for a year!

 I performed on a huge stage in front of thousands of people and made friends, lots of them.Without ballroom I wouldn't have nay friends right now. So I am very grateful.

 My grades started to fall, I don't want to admit but I'm pretty sure it was because of ballroom. My pocket also became a little (LOT) lighter. So I'm pretty terrified right now.

 Don't know if I'll be able to finish school. and I need to retake a couple classes. I know, I know, not good

 I haven't decided if staying on the team is a good idea or not, but it probably isn't. I love it so much though, it made everyday bearable, knowing that I was apart of something.

 Got a job back in January. I'm a waitress now, working a lot lately. which is pretty nice. Money is VERY nice. I was able to buy a Mac with my tips, I took 30% out of my tips everyday that I worked and set it aside for a new computer! 

 That's the way to get things done though. If you have to have something that is going to cost a ton of money, take some money out of your paycheck, tips, etc... until you have enough, makes the purchase way more satisfying!

 I think I'm done rambling for the night. It's pretty late and I have two finals tomorrow, College Algebra and Managerial Accounting (this is my second shot at it, may have to try it a third time)

 I shall leave you with a quote!

Week 3 - Good Morning!

 Goooooood Morning! I'm going to come right out with it. I have not been doing great at getting up early. That's because over the weekend, I decided that what I wanted to do with my extra time, was cuddle with my fiancé. It was late mornings from there. BUT! Here I am, at 6:30am, writing to you. It's not all bad! I'm up earlier than usual. Positive thinking right? Had an amazing weekend, had a photoshoot with some women I didn't really know and we pretended we were in a Coven for Halloween, I'll attach some stuff for you to look at. 👀 And as always life is busy busy busy, but I'm choosing to look at it as "productive".  I always like ticking something off my list!  Next list to start working on, my wedding planning list. Who would have thought there was SO much to getting married! 😅 I hope you enjoyed the small snippet I shared! Comment and tell me what you thought!

Not Like The Movies

College is not what people think it is. In movies it's shown as one BIG party. Lots of hot people, drinking and parties. My experience in college has been somewhat like a party but nothing like college in movies. When I first moved into my dorm I expected my roommate to be my best friend and go everywhere with me. That is not the case, my roommate and I talk, but we don't go everywhere together. Honestly sometimes it can even be awkward when we are left in the same room together. My first night at the dorm I met the other girls that I share a suite with. They looked like the typical preppy girls, mean girls if I may. Turns out that they weren't as bad as I had originally thought they were. That night we went to a tye dye party. We were given a T-shirt and we could go dip our shirts in big buckets of dye. There was music blasting and people dancing in the bright colorful lights. "This is college" I thought. This is going to be so much fun. The dance was ...

Life Changes

The year 2018 was not a good year for me. Two things that will send someone into a crippling depression happened to me... As I am still healing from this most recent one, I don't want to go into much detail. But for the rest of this post to make sense you'll need to know that Vincent and I are no longer together, after 8 years.. As time goes by I expect I will be able to open up about it. The past few years I have been stagnant. I still started a Master's program and got a new job as a manager, but I was just existing. I wasn't actually living my life. At the beginning of October I started a 6 week fitness challenge at a CrossFit gym in town. I lost 15 pounds and began to love myself again. But I still wasn't happy. It took the earth shattering, heart breaking, event to make me realize that I needed to do something about the way I have been living. I was one of those people who got up, went to work, came home and sat on the couch watching TV and waiting for the ...
