I will be turning 24-years-old in a month and its starting to hit me. At first I think to myself--"Oh my gosh, you're so old and grown up." But then I get real and realize--"Oh my gosh, you're so young and have so much to live!"

To do list.
I will be turning 24-years-old in a month and its starting to hit me. At first I think to myself--"Oh my gosh, you're so old and grown up." But then I get real and realize--"Oh my gosh, you're so young and have so much to live!"
Healthy Hearts
What makes a healthy heart? Exercise, eating right, vitamins and doctor check ups? Or is a healthy heart made from love, laughter, hard work and adventures? Maybe a little bit of both!
Wish you were here.
I have been waiting for this moment for so long. Graduation! Finishing college, getting a job, becoming an adult, becoming my own individual. What an exciting and proud moment for an accomplished graduate. Your friends and family all gather around and watch you walk across the stage to accept your diploma. There is a big party in your honor to congratulate your success. Your friends take you out for the night to celebrate no more papers and exams ever! So many people to love you and congratulate you--for me, there is just one person missing. My mom.
Dress to Impress or Dress for Success??
Making the switch from the classroom to the office will introduce you to many changes--one in particular that is a bold necessity is the dress code. Will the office be professional? Business casual? Casual Fridays? Casual all the time?

To be or not to be--that is the question
As I round the corner of college and see the finish line in the near distance, I realize that I have a question to answer--What do I want to be when I grow up?!
Just like all graduating students out there--it's time for me to starting looking for that perfect job--but how do you find it?
Everyone is talking about how hard it is to find work these days while living through this unfortunate economy but the more I'm job searching, the more i'm realizing--there are lots of people making the process much easier for us! With all these job searching sites, resume building and posting sites, Craig's list, Mason Career Center Jobweb. So many apps that you can utilize to find a job.
There is an Arizona
This fragile woman was waiting for another person to create her beautiful future for her. She had a vision in her mind of Arizona where her dreams were going to come true--and the man who created that image is the same man that took it away. The first time I heard this song, I believed it. I was familiar with that feeling of disappointment and abandon and I thought I lived in a world where Arizona did not exist. Where Arizona was just a lie people told you that was taken away in the end.
As I step off my front porch and walk into my future, I think of how I will never depend on someone else to create my dreams. I will create them for myself. My Arizona will be my Arizona. It will be my dreams and my perfection. I dont know where my Arizona is quite yet--but I know that it exists--I'll send you pictures once I get there.
