I quit my job today.
I feel really relieved. And a little sad.
Hopefully I can figure out what it is I really want to do with my life.

Searching.
I just want to find a few good people who know how to be real friends.
I'm really sick of second-guessing relationships. And seeing them fizzle out and die.
Hmm...I don't like using the word "die". That seems rather depressing. But the expression is, "fizzle out and die," right?
How about, "fizzle out and disappear." That sounds a little better I suppose.

Stood Up.
Apparently the concept of plans...or even a phone call, doesn't make sense to my generation.
Awesome.
Awesome.

Setback.
I didn't do too great with my weight loss this week. In fact, I gained. But tomorrow is a new day, and I am going to try my best.
Better news...I finished my application and got my acceptance e-mail from Aims. I'm planning on starting in the fall, and I'm really excited to go back to school. My brain needs a challenge.
I hope everything is going well for everyone!

Cool Stuff.
I lost 5.4 pounds my first week of WW! I think I'm in shock, I was just really worried about gaining. Hopefully I can keep up the good work.
Also, I'm watching UNC play in the Big Sky Tournament. They just said Greeley, Colorado on ESPN.
What an exciting day!

So Tired.
I am exhausted.
Last night I met up with Kevin so we could try out the Tea House. I have to say, an entire wall full of different kinds of tea is intimidating. It took me about twenty minutes to finally pick one out. But it was delicious. I've decided I'm going to take my mom there soon.
After the tea, Kevin and I went to Old Chicago to hang out while waiting for Jenna to get off work. I drank water! I'm very proud of myself for that. Jenna, Cassie, Cara, and Ben met up with us later and I had a Tom Collins (which I had allowed myself points for.)
I was planning on going home after that one drink, but Jenna's co-worker was celebrating his birthday so I went bar-hopping with everyone. I only had one more drink, which was good. However, I had to use extra points for that. I know the weekly points allowance is ok to use, but I still feel like I'm cheating when I use them.
Anyway, I didn't end up getting home until after 2:00 a.m. And I had to get up at 7:30 for work today. And do multiple haircuts. Which is why I am...SO TIRED.
I took a nap when I got home. And I am definitely not going out tonight. But last night was worth it. I got to hang out with good friends, see old friends, and make new friends.
I hope you're all having a good weekend!

A New Beginning.
I have packed on quite a few pounds since I moved back in with my parents. I'm blaming it on eating real meals on a regular basis rather than surviving on the broke student diet of coffee and cigarettes.
So last night I joined Weight Watchers with my mom. I really liked the meeting, and I know that the program works since I've witnessed my mom being a leader for the past ten years.
I feel like I'm getting off to a bit of a shaky start. I think it was the Cup-O-Noodles that I threw in my lunchbag as I was rushing out the door this morning. But I'm going to work on planning better (and getting up a little earlier to pack a good lunch).
And somewhere down the road, when I hit my ultimate goal, I am going to reward myself with the tattoo that I've been wanting for years!
Wish me luck! And will-power!

Learning.
I've learned that the day will go so much smoother if you use constructive criticism as a tool to improve rather than letting it make you feel insecure.
Also, I really need to put my foot down with a certain person. I can already tell I'm going to end up in a very poor situation if I don't put an end to things now. Unfortunately, things are a lot easier said than done.
Here's some good stuff to wrap this up with.

Brrrr!
Yesterday was my first day at the new job. It was so much fun.
Today is...cold. I think it's -9 right about now. That is not ok.
Stay warm, friends!

Work Work Work.
I got a second job! Next Monday, I will be the newest Coffee Canteen barista. It's a new coffee shop in Eaton and it's really cute. And the coffee is good. I'm super excited to start working there.
Today is my one year anniversary of being a licensed cosmetologist. It sounds like a silly thing to celebrate, but this is the first time I've actually stuck with something for more than a few months, so I'm pretty proud of myself.
Also, my one year anniversary of working at Bombshell is coming up next week. It definitely doesn't seem like I've been there that long.
I hope everyone is having a good day!

Lessons Learned.
Life is short.
Enjoy the good things.
Don't dwell on the bad.
Surround yourself with people you love.
And give back as much as possible.
Have a good day, friends.
