Changes

I was aware that life throws you curve balls. What I wasn't aware of is how many and how fast you can really recover and make the best out of those situations. In the past two months my life has done a complete 180. And to be completely honest I didn't think I had it in me to deal with any of it. I always seem to underestimate my own power and determination. Well not any longer!! I am back in life! I have grabbed ahold of my own life reigns and decided that I and I alone will make the decisions from here on out. I mean why not? I am completely capable of doing it... right? RIGHT! So in the past two months I've gotten back into the workforce, reconnected with old friends, made new friends, started to go out and enjoy life and even took a mini weekend vacation! I mean that might not sound like a lot to anyone else but for me it is like I have just started living my adult years. Making a conscience effort to live and let live, to be happy and enjoy what I have and focus on getting what I want and realizing that it is all possible! For the first time ever I am excited about what the future has to offer and that makes my soul soar. I am in love with life and who I am and who I am growing to be. I am ready to take it all on and be happy without any excuses. Because ultimately I am in control of my own destiny and I will accept nothing but the best. As I sit here in a coffee shop and watch the snow lightly fall over the city I feel light hearted and confident that the future is going to hold vast new opportunities and surprises. All of which I will accept with open arms!

Back To School!

Eek! I mean I haven't been out of school that long but somehow I managed to forget all of the joys of the process of going back. I spent a good 1/2 of my day talking with 1/2 wits at the Department of Ed, who unlike what others had said were quite nice but just not very keen on problem solving. Although I was surprised when I called my old high school that they already had handled all of my transcript problems. A glimmer of hope in the day. But then I spent the rest of the day trying to figure out how to pay off a couple of student loans that went default to no fault of my own. Trying to reach the offices of the organization(which shall remain nameless) that is supposed to be paying them was in short a disaster. I mean really how hard is it to keep your website updated and have valid extension numbers for employees. But alas it is almost dinner time. And being the foodie that I am I am highly excited for this meal! And s'mores later by the fire. It's the small things in life that keep me from going virtually insane at the end of the day. Hopefully tomorrow will be a bit more productive in the loan department so that by my meeting at the school Saturday I can just be worried about the classes I need to take. Ah the wonders of the education system in this country. One has to love it...

Back In The Real World!

Wow it took me quite a while to even be able to access this blog again.  It has been that long.  I finally got my Mac back today and I am thrilled!  So more or less this post is a forewarning that I am going to be getting into the blogging swing of things asap.  But because it is so incredibly late and I am starting to close my eyes just typing this I am going to officially start later today.  From then on I believe I will be a blogging queen(of sorts).
