A Brand New Year

Well hello 2010! You just kinda sprang outa nowhere. I know this is a very sorry excuse for a blog as of late. But when you blog as a career, it's hard to get the motivation to do it on your off time.

Well, it looks like it's a new decade as well. I really wish I had pictures from the past decade to include in this post like my friend Faith did. But that would require a scanner and a bunch of time. Unfortunately I have neither. It would have made a very interesting post though. Perhaps I will make it a project of mine for sometime this year.

Anyway, 2009 wasn't half bad. Actually half it sucked while the other half totally rocked. I honestly don't even remember the first half. Looking back at old posts, it looked like I talked about the same 3 things over and over. Boys, weight loss, and finding a job.

And then fate happened when my mom told me about a website called plentyoffish.com; a FREE dating website. What could be better than a single, poor chick looking for a guy? I dated some creepy interesting guys. But on one night in late July I had a date with a guy. A guy I would fall head over heels for. I know it's only been 5 months, but I seriously feel like I have known him forever. He treats me exactly the way I want/ deserve to be treated. I can't wait to see what the future has in store for us.



And just as importantly I landed my first professional job! For almost a year before that I felt worthless and like my education was for not. What a horrible feeling after spending 6 years in college. My job is amazing! I feel like I am not only using my degree but learning new things in the process. The company is so good to me. I even got a paid vacation only after 3 months of working there. I feel appreciated and like the work I am doing is really helping the business profit.


Of course slipping into comfort zone with the BF has left me with some not so healthy eating habits. BUT I haven't gained back everything... some... not everything. But we both belong to a the same gym, so we are encouraging each other to start working out again. It's much easy with your partner by your side.

So here is to a new year, a new decade, and as always working towards a better ME!
