Maybe

So, I was thinking how a lot of people, not in my generation, say that people in my generation don't understand the concept of working your way up and that you have to start on the bottom....you know what I'm talking about. I agree, a lot of them don't, a lot of them feel like they can just go to the top and they are not qualified to do so. However, I feel a lot of people in my generation are capable of taking on greater challenges. I'm so unbeleivably bored doing desk work and data entry and phones-I'm capable of so much more! I'm not saying put me in charge but I don't need 5 years experience to do something-I'm a fast learner, throw me in the lion pit-I want to go! Could this be because my generation was brought up in a school system and a work environment with tougher requirements, more technology and greater advancements and overall knowledge than others? Just a theory-maybe we are capable of more than they think.

Food For Though

The increased use of debit and credit cards is a downfall for the homeless....think about it. Oh, and is it wrong that I find myself getting really angry at the 7-eleven girl on the side of the road with her big magnetic pole, changing the numbers on the gas prices?

Well

SO I'm reading this book and it says that people either believe things that happen are because of fate or because of choices. TO figure it out, you just ask yourself who you blame when things don't go your way? To you ask God, why, why, why, or do you say, why did I make these choices to get here, if only I had made a different decision. As a person of faith and a person who believes a lot in destiny, I suprised myself to relize that with all that is going on in my life right now I have been looking at myself and thinking what stupid and wrong decisions I had made and I wish I could go back and make different ones. SO, I think it goes back to the whole free will stuff. There is a plan for me, but it's up to me to make the right decisions to get there. I dont know. I can't help but feel like over the past few months.....few years....I've made a string of bad choices that are just now catching up with me. I wish I had rewind. I'm not sure how to get out of this mess.

My Routinessssssssssssssssss

So now that I've started an 8-5 job I'm back into a routine of things that I haven't been in since high-school. Up at 7:05-out the door at 7:42, home by 5:30. Saturday mornings to the bakery for breakfast, dog park on Sundays............supposedly routine is good for you, right? It's kind of strange. I haven't had this much structure in awhile. I still am not capable of getting up that early. I can do it, but it's not like my body is ready for it. I'm ready for summer. For some reason getting up is a lot easier in the summer. In fact, spring and summer just put me in an all around better mood. And Frasier, Season 9 comes out in May...looking forward to it. I really don't have anything important to write about.

Newscasters, Part 2

So, one of my first blogs I wrote on here was about how newscasters really bother me and how I see them everywhere. Just to recap, I've seen Maggie Carlo once, Amy McRee (sp ) twice, this one lady from news 9 driving, Jessica Shambach and a mathis brother on 3 separate occassions. I feel like I'm leaving one out....
Anyway, during my weekend excursion to the mall I saw Jessica Shambach, again, in the Coach store. Mind you, she is one of my least favorites. The first time I saw her she was all decked out in her "news" gear, but this weekend she was almost unrecognizeable in her weekend wear! It's amazing what they do to them on the television-make up wise anyway!
So, I wonder who I will see next in my newscasting adventures....

New Class

Well, I just started this blog in January for the blog class, and I just found out I still need to post once a week for my advanced composition class! I'm actually glad I get to keep posting my random thoughts.
As for what's going on right now, things are shifting at work and I'm not crazy about it. I guess I'm not so good with change.

Home




Saw this on the PostSecret blog. Thought it was worth sharing:




You know that point in your life when you realize that the house that you grew up in isn't really your home anymore? Even though you have some place where you can put your stuff that idea of home is gone. You won't have this feeling again until you create a new idea of home for yourself, you know, for your kids, for the family you start, it's like a cycle or something. Maybe that's all family really is. A group of people who miss the same imaginary place.
