Don't stop believin'

I LOVE GLEE! Oh. It is the cutest show! I've watched it off and on through out season 1, but now I'm wishing I had watched the entire season. Thank God for TV on DVD... I will catch up before season 2. At first I thought it was really cheesy... then I got in to the characters and it's so good!





I find it odd that when you're young, you spend a majority of your life being 110% cheesy and not knowing it. Then you hit 16 and decide you're going to try to be cool, which results in uber-cheesiness, THEN when you hit your early 20's being cheesy becomes a lifestyle and ironically it's okay. I feel more like a 10 year old these day then I did when I was actually 10. Carefree is becoming easier, minus all the responsibilities and the hidden fear behind my exterior of failure. The jump was supposed to be the scariest part... but any sky diver will tell you is the absolute scariest part is not being completely confident that your parachute will function correctly. The complete rush of diving in to a pool of air with nothing but you, yourself, and...you... is compelling and you get so excited about the fact that you just jumped, that you forget if you're not prepared you're going to land face first and potentially break every bone in your body. That, my friends, is the scariest point. I'm in. I'm here. But am I prepared for what's to happen next. I guess that's the beauty of faith.

*Lets run a muck through Grand Central unhurt and unbroken, like we never felt a thing*

It is clear, then, that wisdom is knowledge having to do with certain principles and causes. But now, since it is this knowledge that we are seeking, we must consider the following point: of what kind of principles and of what kind of causes is wisdom the knowledge? (Aristotle, 340BC)

There's a little bit more of life to come...

I can't believe it's already November 21... I don't know where this semester has gone... I don't feel like I've accomplished anything. Well, that's not really fair, I've accomplished a lot, but nothing scholastic. Although it has been a great semester for social activity.

I have been so unmotivated with school work I cannot even handle it! This is the first time in MY LIFE I have an assignment due in less than 48 hours and it is not completed. I'll be working non-stop tomorrow. I'm so ready for Christmas vacation! Twinkle lights, Christmas Trees, Peppermint white mochas, Opryland, sales, sales, salessss and Christmas Music!!!! Love it!

It's hard to wrap my head around the fact that this time next year, i WON'T be a student. Thinking about that makes my head spin... I could be in Nashville, New York, California, or some unknown! I feel like I should be planning? But the other 1/2 of me says to let things work themselves out.

In other news, my collection, buh... is not happenin'.... I have a great idea, and I'm super inspired, but something is just not working. I never dreamed I would hate the degree I was so passionate about getting. 3 MORE CLASSES! I'm a nerd but I'm super excited about taking business law next semester. WHO would have thought that the girl who couldn't wait to design and create would be most excited about her business law class? I am a class A example of the girl everyone thinks has it all together, and at the end of the day knows nothing. I never thought I'd be that girl. As much as I hate to admit how clueless I really am, I actually like not knowing where I'm going to be.

I've learned the beauty of my life is things that sparkle... people who dream, inspire and encourage... and clean, pure, organized, honest, truthful, positive attitudes. With everything bad comes something good and in the absolute worst times the only thing you think about is the happiest, most amazing moment, that is soon to follow.

Lovelovelove. Always.

"And I said 'Romeo Take Me Somewhere We Can Be Alone..."

I'm on a TS kick today. It's hard not to be after seeing her on Oprah. I'm glad people get to see the real, sweet, down-to-earth person I am blessed to work for. People have no idea what she goes through on a day to day basis. Nothing is ever calm or normal, its always busy and constant chaos. She deserves so much more credit than people give her.

I absolutely love my job, but the entertainment industry is nothing like people expect. It's "in your face" all the time. Everyday. People talking at you, not to you, at you. I was not a fan when I first started, it exhausted me. But I've adjusted, and I've learned to love it. The less glamour, the more I enjoy it.

On another note. I got another job lead 2 days ago. A lady we work with at one of the NYC PR firms e-mailed my boss asking if I was still interested in re-locating for work. Come to find out, her roommate works for Gucci... oh yes I said it GUCCI... and they're looking to hire a PR coordinator. In lame mans terms, my PERFECT job! And GUCCI to make it even better! I'm not counting on anything, but it's a compliment if nothing else. My life has taken so many unexpected turns, I've decided that I am just along for the ride. Where ever I end up is where I'm meant to be.

For the first time in 2 years I can actually say I am beyond happy. NOTHING is perfect, EVERYTHING is flawed, and I'm more uncertain than I've EVER been in my ENTIRE life. But I literally could.not.be.happier. For one reason and one reason only. My fate is in the hands of the Lord, and he is providing and taking care of me every step of the way. It took me stepping back, handing everything over with the most extensive amount of humbleness and saying "this is yours, I am finished worrying about it, please do with it what you want." It's amazing how the stress in my life went from 110% to 10%.

I'm excited to finish the month of October. Still waiting to hear about other possibilities. Something is coming. I can feel it.

"Operation Andy Griffith, Commence!"

I've just had one of THE funniest conversations of my entire life.......over Twitter. Too good, too good. I'll add that to my list of amazing fall activities which includes Lawrenceburg fair, corn maze, bonfire/pumpkin carving, project runway parties, random outings, AND next up Goatfest, pumpkinfest, AND masquerade ball! THIS is why I love fall.

In other news, I have not been motivated to work on anything school related for the past few weeks. Weekdays consist of work, work, and more work, and weekends consist of friends and family time. I've got to get my butt on the ball though. Time is flying and May will be here before I know it. I am ready for May, but in all honesty, life is great right now, so I'm in no hurry to speed through it.

The past month has been crazy. There have been soo many ups and downs. I know no one is ever a fan of the downs in their life, strangely enough I like them. Only because with everything bad comes something really good. I've definitely found this to be true lately. I've really come to realize how blessed I am. Things are never perfect, and I'm not blessed because of the good, I'm blessed by the way the good and bad work together to form my life. Romans 8:28 is one of my most favorite passages and it's really hit home recently.

It's 1:11am. I have to be up for work at 8:00am. This is not going to be fun. It really is time to commence! :)) Until next time, lovelovelove.
