Travel

I really don't have a post, post to write at the moment. I am doing something I believe all should do when you have hit my point in life. Don't let any excuses exclude you from doing so either. I am traveling. I will have a more detailed and picturesque point of view of my trip but I will go ahead and tell you of the places Ive seen so far by geographical location. I started in San Diego, CA, in the Coronado Bay Resort. From there I headed to Las Vegas for two days the Grand Canyon for an afternoon and then the Yosemite National Park. Again this is just a brief blog and the ones to follow at the end of the week or maybe even the beginning of next week will be very very detailed and full of great pics. .....
I say this again to make my self clear to you. You need to see what is out there and how people are living their lives in order for you to even remotely somewhat live yours.

That is all for tonight I will try to at least give you a preview tomorrow.

One more note for anyone who cares.


I LOVE CALIFORNIA :)

Day One

So today my official first day to the beginning of my new life. I know that may sound a tad bit weird and even a little contradictory but it is what I will write. I woke up yet again, within my warm covers feeling completely at easy, yet a the same time not wanting to leave my blanket of safety. I woke at the early hours of 8:30.....O.K. I woke up at 9:30. :) I did a little bit of movement from my bed to the couch. I did a little soul searching with the T.V. and then after about an hour of nothing I got my big fat ass off the couch and got to cleaning. Cleaning clears my head and well it gets the place your in clean. lol. I really can't find a reason not to clean. A clean area helps the mind work better, allowing you to think about more important things. I then realized my beloved Martha Stewart was to be on at 10:30 on the Hallmark channel and so I took a jog on the treadmill I ha vent used since I bought about a month ago and watched her make things I will probably never use or need in my life. After my jog, just as I was about to finish cleaning the kitchen I got the call. What call you may ask? Well you see, I am in this new stage of my life due to a mistake I made and this call was what resulted do to it. This call was from a Human Resources Repersentive with the company I worked for (Did you catch the "Worked" part of it). She was calling me to inform me that I had a meeting with her Downtown today to discuss the outcome. Well I'm sure you guessed what it was.


Yep....I am starting all over because I was fired. That's right. I realize I should be a little ashamed or even embarrassed to commit this to you. And to be truthful I am, but I feel that the only way I can help anyone who needs it would be to be truthful. Isn't it said that "The truth will set you free". So I came out of the meeting jobless and to be yet again truthful a bit relieved. Now I know with today's job market and my age, getting a job again wont be easy. But I really am not sure if that's what I want to do off the back. As I mentioned earlier to you I have a very supportive family and they want me to take a break and relax. I plan on doing just that, Relax.....
I will of course not just sit in my own sorrow and expect people to pity me.

I plan on rediscovering myself.
I hope anyone who goes through such an ordeal takes this chance to due just that.
Wake up in the morning, look in the mirror and ask yourself "Who am I?"
I hope you then take some time and find that answer instead of taking the easy road out and doing as others tell you.




Look at yourself deeply.
Look in the mirror, I mean really look into it..... Look into your eyes until it almost looks like anther perosn is looking back at you and then find out what it is you see....
Until next time.
Good day!

How to start....

We all must go through the proper steps in order to move forward, even if we don't find the need for them. In the beginning one must go through a process of thought. One must start to begin to ask themselves "What just happened?", "What am I to do?", "Who am I know" and "How am I to start over?". The beginning is never easy for anyone. Many cases include periods of time where for days to weeks, where you will just want to stay in bed, wanting to stay under the covers where you'll always be safe and think that maybe you will wake up from your bad dream or just stay at home and begin to see the world around you in a huge fuzz and everything will begin to fade in with eachother and nothing will really make any since. And others go through this period of acting in a delusional state for themselves and others around them, almost as nothing ever happened and everything is normal. It is all part of the process. Almost like in the steps of grivence. The first step in Denial. We will deny to ourselves and any of our loved ones around us. We will convice ourselves that everything is O.K.



Well take that time you need, I did. In fact I kindof am going through that period. I mean its only been less then four days since I have been told that I need to start over. I have stayed in bed some days. Other days I would wake up and try to keep myself busy and telling everyone that I am ok. Nobody wants to hear that your doing bad and that you are not taking things great. Especially if you are like me and have a past of taking bad news badly, or to be blunt I would cut myself as a child when I was given bad news or go through a deep and dark depression. I have now moved from those periods of my life and hope to be able to gain my support from friends and family. Again if you need support of any kind feel free to write or comment. I would love to help in any way possiable.
You take your time in the Denail state.
Sleep more.
Cry if you need.
Convince your self wrong if you need.
Eat your pain away. lol. I always do.
Read that book you put away for the rainy days.
Do all that you need...
Just keep in mind that at some point...
You need to take a good look of reality and Say "Hello".
Hello Reality, I have been avoiding you for some time, but it looks like it time we sat down for some tea.
Good day to you all...
Till next time :)

Starting from scratch

I just lost a really good job, still live at home, don't really have much money in my savings account and really don't know what I want to do with my life. Oh and I'm 21! :) I really cant wrap my head around doing just one thing for the rest of my life, same thing day in and day out. Now I realize you are probably thinking 'Your still young" or " You have your whole life ahead of you", but I really don't.
I am just like the rest of you. I want to do something that I love. I want to be HAPPY! I want to know that every choice that I make in life is the right one. Well looks like I need to take a look into the book of reality just like many on here have had to.
I need to grow up.
Know I don't want to sound selfish by saying I need to grow up. We all need to grow up and stop living in this Disney Movie fantasy that we were brought up to live and want.
It doesn't exist. There is no Prince in shiny armor waiting for you to save, there is no long lost relative that just died and for some reason on earth left all their money to you. lol.
There is no princess locked up in a tall castle waiting for you.- That's for the men, or women if you swing that way. No money trees and no great job waiting for you.
What is there then you ask.
Life is out there.
Life and reality. They have been there this whole time waiting for you to wake up and say "Hi".



Now I have the advantage, unlike some out there, to have a great family who will support my and help me through the thick and thin. They are here for me when I need them and if you don't have the same then I'm here for you.
No one should have to go through tough times alone.
From nasty breakups or divorces, lost of jobs or family or just being stuck and not know what road to turn or if you should even continue.
I'm here to help if you need and here to share how I will move on from my pain, hardship and through living.
I will try anything that I possibly can.
I will look for what can make me happy and what will help me down this fork in the road.....
