My past blogs have been about my career, job status, craziness with juggling work, school, relationship.
Well...I'm adding another log onto the fire. The company that I WAS working for, as in the past tense, recently shut down. This was the same company were I bounced from a 60 hour a week distributor job to a normal 40 hour a week, Event Coordinator job. I wen through two interview processes that took up most of the time I was employed there. During all this I moved to a new place, I was getting my life all situated...and then as keeps happening to me lately, the WHOLE SITUATION changed again.
I going to try to link this blog to communication. My current situation was actually not all that shocking to me and everyone else in this madness because...**daun da da** I made sure I was in the loop!!! I listened to what was going on around me to insure that I was not left standing in an unfortunate circumstance with no where to go!!! I also kept everyone around me; at the office and at home, aware of what was happening. I've figured out that being honest and open with information is helpful. I'm not saying be ignorant or naive. Thank goodness or I would have been homeless and unemployed... ; ) It sounds alot worse than it acutally is.

It just felt like it was never gonna end...Well
I'm pretty secure in my understanding Grad School. Yes, I needed to have a full time job to get the full effect of Grad School. I'm glad I decide to talk to my boss because she helped my get me my job, that is challenging but also flexible. I'm multitasking like a crazy person but it's working because I have time to study of school and do well at work. And moving was a piece of cake!!! I was thinking that my life would be constantly crazy and I wouldn't be able to reap any of the rewards of my hard work!!! I was wrong...now that everything has calmed down, instead of barely making it to I can focus on how to improve all of my current situations. School...Work...Relationship...House!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Time Management
So I never realized how much being an "ADULT" really sucks.
First of all, what's the point of having all the things you earn when you have a full time job if you can't even enjoy them. I pay rent on a house I haven't even moved into yet because I don't have the time to move!!! I barely am at home anymore...my favorite place to be. When I am home I'm still working on stuff I brought home from work.
IT NEVER ENDS!!!!!!!!The pressure might be slightly different if I wasn't in Grad School. But evidently getting my Masters will help me further myself in my career. But again what's the point if you can't reap the benefits of all your hard work.
I'll tell you one thing though...I will never be as excited to have a break between semesters as I will in December!!! I will finally appreciate the break of not having to go to school at night even though I will still have to go to work.
Oh...the life lessons just keep on coming!!! How annoying...

HONEYMOON STAGE
This blog is for anyone in a NEW RELATIONSHIP!!! I will be speaking generally of course but it's safe to say the HONEYMOON STAGE is sooooooo OVER!!!
Relationships are different for everyone but there is one thing they all have in common; the honeymoon stage. It's easily recognizable by the polite nature in which each person in the relationship acts toward each other. Oh you know; No burping, Always fresh breath, You love everything about each other, Always considerate of the other person's feelings...etc. Blah Blah Blah. Well I'll tell you what it does NOT last long.
I'm not quite sure what to call this next stage. The best way I can think to describe it is AND THE TRUTH COMES OUT!!! Those things that made them unique or fun or exciting, start to become hindering features about their personality. What is up with that??? Is it so much to ask for the person you fell in love with could be as amazing as you think they are in YOUR MIND!!! I am not saying that you are perfect, or that some of your qualities have not changed after the HONEYMOON STAGE.
I guess it is best that these traits come out early. There is always the possibility of fixing them or waiting for the INEVITABLE. Although the alternative is not very appealing it's better to have let go early then drag each other through the mud. So the moral to this LITTLE STORY is either love them for who they are or let them be.
