Hard Work Pays Off

I know I haven't posted for awhile now. I have been crazy busy.

Remember the dream job I talked about on my "Dream Job" post . I GOT IT!!! I am actually doing the training online now but of course I got distracted. HELLO. I am on the internet, it's bound to happen.

4.0 GPA, honors program, Phi Theta Kappa, Vegas, Disneyland, and got my dream job. 2015 is basically set up perfectly for me! AND I just applied for the fall Disney College Program . I am really hoping I will get it. Ultimate dream job would be working for Disney. Hook it up if you work there ;]

I have been so appreciative lately. I looked around my room and smiled at myself. I have everything I wanted and worked hard for. I just have to keep it up. Some days I feel lazy but then I watch inspirational videos on youtube. Some of my favorite quotes today were

WE ARE THE RESULT OF OUR THOUGHTS AND ACTIONS

YOU CAN BE ANYTHING IF YOU JUST DECIDE

DO WHAT YOU LOVE AND SUCCESS WILL FOLLOW

EVERY DAY YOU WASTE IS A DAY YOU'LL NEVER GET BACK


I hope these quotes will help you as much as they did me.

Follow your dreams!! The best of things don't come easily. The most successful people are the ones that didn't give up.

Don't give up on yourself.

Questions to get you motivated

What do you want to do for the rest of your life?

What is holding you back?

What can you do to improve yourself today?

What is it that truly makes you happy?

Can you make yourself happy every day?



Every day I have to drive a total of 2 hours and as I sit in my car I think about these questions and they help motivate myself. By the time I get home though I feel exhausted and I tell myself just one small nap. That small nap turns into 2 hours and then I can't sleep. I feel as if I have wasted my time and then I don't have the same motivation. I don't know why I only feel like that in the car so I force myself to sit at my desk and write down the questions to remind me why. Why am I working so hard?

I complain that I never catch a break. If I am not at school I am at work and if I am home then i'm doing homework. When I do have a day off though I feel so restless and time goes by so slow. There are things I could be doing. I could be making money or learning something.

I'm on a constant wheel. I used to say I want to retire early but now that I think about it, i'd feel useless. There are 3 elderly women at work that are at the age of retirement but they stay because they are afraid of having so much time after working most of their lives. My boyfriends grandpa just watches tv all day and I don't understand how he can do that.


The Struggle is Real

My 2 cents on fame- Ex Selena Gomez

Selena Gomez has just released a song that she confirmed was about Justin Bieber. OMG. <- Sarcasm. 

So I have to admit that sometimes I keep up with celebrity news but it's usually when a new song comes out and I watch the youtube videos and see all the crap people say in the comments. I tell my boyfriend what people are saying and it's honestly sad how much people care about these celebrities. It must be hard to be famous because you are constantly being watched. Selena is 22 years old and people are continually judging her about her relationship with Justin Bieber. For one, it's none of our business who she dates and to judge her for that is ridiculous. I am 21 and I can't imagine having the whole world know how many people I have been with or what I am doing every second. 

Imagine people scoping out your house or having random people following you just to snap a picture.  How can you even meet people without them being star struck? I can understand how famous people stick with outer famous people because they obviously have the same problems. My boyfriend and I were wondering how she can even have a relationship with someone that isn't famous. She is a busy person obviously with all the movies and songs coming out. She probably has more success than those pointing out all her flaws. If she were to point a finger then she gets her ass reamed by the media. 

There was a person who commented on her newest song on youtube and said she was a bad example for encouraging girls to stay in a toxic relationship. She is obviously expressing herself and there are many people who are in a toxic relationships. She made herself vulnerable with coming out with this song. She was able to connect with her fans so for people to say she is a bad example is really idiotic. Before you go judging people put yourself in her shoes. What if people were following you around and posting articles about your life and the decisions you make. 

Stop caring about celebrities and what they do in their life. It's so sad how big these reality tv shows are. Are people that bored that they have to watch others live their lives? 

Procrastinating

I should probably be studying for my midterm on Monday, but I find it hard to concentrate when all I can think about is disney, flying to vegas for new years, watching Vampire Diaries, what is going to happen this weekend, whether or not I should keep sitting here scrolling down my Facebook feed, look at yahoo, articles, or maybe just come up with posts for my blog. There are so many more options besides studying for my midterm and it just becomes distracting as you can tell. Oh and my stomach is currently growling. What should I eat?

Have you ever left assignments for the last minute? One time I waited to along to do an essay that I only slept 4 hours. That was this past wednesday by the way. If something catches my interest then I do things right away but if I think its boring then meh, it can wait.

Hope ya'll have a good weekend!

School, Homework, Work..REPEAT

For over a month now I haven't had a day off from work or school. Every time I try to relax I feel guilty for not doing my homework. Sometimes I can't even sleep. There are days that I dread going to work because it just stresses me out and I don't feel appreciated but then again I should be grateful that I have a job. I then remember the loans I have to pay off so I keep on running on this wheel. 

On a happy note, I have yet to hear from the company I applied for. Owners are still on vacation and no news is good news right?  

What helps you keep going?

Overweight

Ever since I was in elementary school I have been overweight. I used to blame my mom for feeding me fast food but now that I have moved out I haven't lost much. My excuse is that healthy food is expensive. Which really it is plus the grocery store is about half an hour away from me but Mcdonalds and Wendy's is down the street! For me to get some veggies and fruit takes gas, which means money, which means job, and working enough to pay for gas, food, and all my other bills. Once I am done paying all that off I barely have enough for extra stuff. It also snows here which makes it hard to walk during the winter. I see a bunch of diet fads and the new diet pills that came out but I have never been able to stick to a diet. I bought the wii fit which worked for awhile but then it just became really easy and repetitive.

I am worried about my health.

Any advise?

Do you hate your job?

In my previous post, I talked about how jobs are stressful. 2 days ago I found a video about stress and how it can affect your health. It explains way to help lower stress and manage it.  I hope this helps as much it helped me.

I QUIT!



Kidding, I'm still at the same place....hopefully not for long. Remember, you do not have stay at the job that makes you unhappy. It is unhealthy! I know that security is important but you could apply to other places that you think you will do well in. Once you get in then you can quit your job =D It's a numbers game. Apply to as many places as you'd like but make sure you actually want to do whatever you are applying for.
