New Chapter

I've always thought of myself as being someone people can aspire to be. I've always had a good head on my shoulders, and I thought I was doing pretty well in life. I graduated college, moved out of my mom's house, and I work full-time at the local university. I thought I was doing everything right. Then this quote hits me. "Even if you're on the right track, you'll get run over if you just sit there." Now how true is that?! I thought of myself as sooooo priveledged, that opportunities would fall from the sky and land in my lap. WRONG. I've quickly learned that you have to work extremely hard to get what you think you deserve. This is the mark of a new journey.

In one week, I will officially be leaving my current job. I've been with this university for two years, post graduation. Everything I have known has been this city and this enviroment. I've always wanted bigger and better, and now I'm finally doing it.

This transition has been extremely stressful! I forgot how much work goes into the process of applying for jobs. All of the resumes, letters, interviews, and phone calls really wear a girl out! Add that to the stress of packing up an entire house in just a few weeks. Some days, it'll drive you absolutely mad! You just have to keep in mind the end goal, and make sure its worth it!

So in seven whole days, I will be making a big move to a totally new city. I can't wait to explore and find neat places within the city. I'll be sure to post with all of the new adventures. This will be a really big step in my life! Hope all goes well.
