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!

Life In Technicolor

I'm writing tonight's post to the song 'Life in Technicolor II' By Coldplay. I forgot how much I enjoy Coldplay. They can put me in such a relaxed mood. Almost perfect for writing. I've had a pretty bland day. I got up around 11am, which is way later than I wanted to get up.. I used my color chart, which told me I should wear lavender on Mondays.. It helps me get dressed faster in the morning ha. Anyway, I took my finals today.. It went bad for accounting, but I didn't really expect any different. Cheers to taking that class a third time! I'm not stupid I swear. I just lacked conviction lately. Which will change. My math final went pretty well..Matching graphs to equations is my downfall so I'm sure I missed a few points there, I passed the class though! When I got home I realized that I had the rest of my day to myself, some people love that feeling, nothing to do. I'm not like others, I prefer to be busy, keeps my mind off things. One of...

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 ...

Long Time

Hey everyone! It's been a very long time since I've written on here. This year so many things have changed! Vincent moved in with me at the end of December 2016, it has been going super great! I love waking up to him every morning (except when I work graves of course). I can't believe its been 8 months since we made that giant leap in our relationship, things have been moving along so smoothly. At the end of February I became a Mary Kay Independent Beauty Consultant! Let me tell you, I was so nervous at first. The starter kit was $100 and it came with over $400 worth of product in it, so NO BRAINER, I signed up. I signed up wondering if I could make any money in the business of skin care and cosmetics, and I soon found out I could when at my first party I sold over $300 of product! Quickly I decided to invest in my business and milk it for all that I could, honestly, it hasn't been unrewarding. I've had so much personal growth, it's insane. I beg...
