Bad Blogger!

There are so many things to catch up on and I have no idea where to begin.  SO, bear with me!  It is now nearing the one year anniversary of my college graduation, yep almost a year since I have last blogged.  There are so many new things to look forward too and Exciting events to happen that I figured I should start back up to have the proper documentation of what's going on in my life some day.  Some day I'll be able to come back and read about the most confusing journey of my life (as of yet). 

Since I have graduated, I have had time to be bored! Yes, that is a good thing.  I remember that 'pit in your stomach, last minute late night study your booty off' feeling and NO, I do not miss it.  Grad school has sadly been put on hold for another year, but for good reason...I am having the most AMAZING journey finding myself and am just getting the hang of it...so why stop now?  My journey started with a brisk, quick (to say the least) move into my own place.  God definitely had a plan for me here as I have grown so much from living by myself, something I hope everyone can experience in their lifetime :) Now, living alone isn't all so glamorous, there's frozen pipes, and 'the heat is out and it's below zero' moments that make it completely real.  Not to mention not having someone to snuggle up to, but adopting a puppy just won't quite work for the 12+ hours a day I am not home (trust me I tried that too) so I have adjusted to it just being me! I have also learned that my creative side is way more than just a hobby....I hope some day to pursue my dream, just not ready for a drastic step that direction yet.  While being in my own place I have gotten pretty good (for my standards) at the following things: entertaining, painting, building, decorating, and MOVING FURNITURE.  Which has become a routine abouuuuuuuut every 2 months ;)

So sure I have had plenty of ME time to figure out what works on my own but there are still many things to figure out.  Liiiiike a career?  Yes I have a stable, well paying job that pays the bills.  There isn't a day I don't appreciate that, but down deep, there's more.  The creative side is itching and so is the pull, the pull to pack up, load up the truck, and move.  Where you ask? Texas of course.  Most everyone who reads this should know that!  I feel like a Texan, and the opportunities for me there with a brand new fresh start are endless!  With nothing really holding me back at this point, I think (that's important), yes, I think, I'm ready to jump off of the hypothetical cliff and start a new life in the big D(allas).  At this point, who knows, with the right way to get there (job opportunity) I may just do it!

Soon to come: documentation that, yes, I can build/paint/decorate/etc., and more on my journey in moving to Texas!
