Kissing frogs & careers.

I've finally found something I am good at. I finally know what I want to do with my life.
I've finally found love.
I've slowly been finding ME.
I've finally, slowly, am accepting who I am.
I've finally, slowly, started, to think for myself and not try to be a people-pleaser.
I'm finally finding HAPPINESS.

These past few months have been hectic and crazy as hell. School is just insane, and sadly I'm failing one out of four classes. *sad face*BUT--Journalism has done me VERY good. I didn't know I could get such enjoyment out of it and actually be GOOD at it. By spring of '09 I will be titled as the Photo Editor. Fancy title I suppose, but it sure as hell will help me get into Journalism programs once I transfer! :)

Sometimes I think that just like in relationships, "have to kiss a few frogs before you find your prince", that it works the same with school/careers/life. I started off wanting to be a lawyer-SLASH-actress when I was a young gal. Then it was a floral designer like my mom was. Until of course I found out I was allergic to flowers. (ouch!) I always had an interest in photography, but always brought down that I wouldn't go anywhere in life with that. So in high school I felt like I had no hope!!!!!! I had no direction towards my future. Too much crapola was going on in life.
I always loved writing as well, go figure, since I write a LOT! At one point I was thinking of becoming a therapist of some sort, and realized I probably need the therapy more than a future patient of mine would...soooooooooo college comes around and I'm still fishing for a major.

Here I am now, writing for our newspaper, entering a journalism competition I didn't even know existed.
I suppose my whole point for all this gibberish is: Ya have to kiss a few majors before you find your career"? Maybe...or something along those lines.

Wooooooooooo.

I think my ultimate career goal one day is to become a weather woman. Seriously!

Peace & blessings.
