The End of the Beginning.

Diving straight into the New Year there was a lot going for myself.

I had a month of high school left.

College Projects to finish.

Jobs to search for.

Homework to complete.

Hours of lost sleep.

Early Mornings & Late Nights.

New Emotions.

But, mostly looking upon to the future.

All my life I have been in the same schedule of waking up at 6:30, going

to school by 8:30 & out of school by 3:30. Homework, Eat, Sleep & Repeat.

As much as I hated this repetitive schedule, I got used to it; it didn't

really seem to bother me. But, I knew that one day I would be able to live

the life I dreamed of during long school days. 

I decided to take advantage of the opportunity to finish a semester

early since the whole high school environment bothered me.

As timed flied I had so much on my plate, I had feelings

I had never had before and things to accomplish under pressure.

But, in all things I realized why I felt like this & admired how

far I have come and with a good deal of hard work - I could change

what I didn't like.

But, as of January 30th I'm official complete with high school.

Even though I am finished I can still go back for senior activities, prom &

graduation (just complete with school work). It's so weird that all this

time I have been working up to this moment and it had arrived.

I feel grown.

I feel free.

I mostly feel I can be me.

Please enjoy Nicki. 

Song truly speaks for completion my of high school.

Also since the start of January I have been on the hunt for jobs.

To pay for college, prom & anything I ever want.

From Claire's to Justice. I got an e-mail back from

LUSH!

I went in to talk to them about working there and they said just look

out for any e-mail. The next thing I know, I'm invited to the hiring party.

Which was probably the time of my life - I learned how to be a Lushie.

From massaging customers to excellent customer service.

The next step would be a second call back, which I'm anxiously waiting.

Working in the place of my dreams & 50% discount. I think being

anxious is something to feel at this moment. Just pray for me that I have the job!

Personally, during this time before prom, graduation and start of college.

I plan to continue my routine of workouts but, longer; since

I have more time to focus on my self. 

So this is what I have been up to from emotions to hiring parties

to freedom!
