A year ago, I loved my job. Now I simply like it but see it as a stepping stone to something greater. A year ago, I thought I was in a wonderful healthy relationship. I wasn’t but now I truly am. A year ago, I would rush the days in a search to find something exciting and better. I searched for something to give my life more meaning. I feel like I’ve found that meaning now and I can embrace everyday life even when it is monotonous and repetitive.
Most people on social media don’t know that I no longer work at the Westin. I initially went part time and worked weekends and now I’m “on call” but haven’t worked there in weeks. I’m now working at a medical device company called Zoll Medical Corporation and I love it.
New job? Check. Great friends? Check. Time to start living more rather than existing.
So here we are. Three weeks into the new year. How many people made resolutions and how many have already failed them?
I’d guess a lot and a lot.
For those that have known me for a long time, you’d recognize that I’ve always been a short hair person. However, over the past year I really let my hair grow. I let it get long. Not to-my-waist-wannabe-Rapunzel long but long for me. Well past my shoulders and trailing down my back. I did it because I wanted to see myself with luscious locks but also because a lot of guys in my life said to keep it long. They liked it better long. But now, I have chopped it and here is why.
I follow some badass body positive people on Instagram and if you aren’t genetically predispositioned to be thin and if you like to drinks IPAs, then I think you should follow them, too!
I made the choice a year and a half ago to move back to Pittsburgh. I don’t regret it one bit. Okay, maybe I regret slightly how much I pay for rent but that’s okay. I love the city and I like being out on my own. However, being away from family means that I only have friends to rely on for coffee, restaurant and movie dates. Or, I have myself. I have NO issues going to eat by myself or shopping or anything else and I wish more people would feel empowered to do the same. Here are my reasons why it is great to be your own date!
