HEY HEY HEYYYY! Bet you guys thought I was dead or somethin’ huh? Life has been a whirlwind of chaos for this girl right here over the past few months. I’ll try to start at the beginning and keep it short…me and my boyfriend decided about a year ago that this summer we would be leaving Milwaukee, we only planned on living here for a short while anyway to just get on our feet after leaving college. We talked a lot about it and decided we wanted to move to Denver (how original hey?) To be fair, my boyfriend Andy had some connections down there with people who do video like he does and we thought it would be a great opportunity for him to expand his video experience and to just get the hell out of the midwest. We started putting plans in motion a few months ago, put in notices at our jobs, let our landlord know we were planning on moving and I purchased a plane ticket to fly down and search for apartments while staying with a friend for a few days. Well I flew down to Denver and hit the ground running!…and it was awful. I had the worst time, I felt uncomfortable and unwelcome not to mention I searched for apartments the ENTIRE time and didn’t find a single one. Plans change. I flew home and we tried to figure out how to put our life back together until we could come up with another plan of action. In the meantime Andy didn’t have a job and the car I bought only a few weeks prior couldn’t pass the city enforced emissions test which means I was carless. Why is life so hard? Luckily our landlord was happy to keep us and I still had my job. We had a rough few weeks trying to put the pieces back together and finally I feel like we’re on an upswing. I got promoted to manager of the restaurant where I work about 2 weeks ago, the owner even helped me get a new car! And Andy just got a new job that’s even better than the one he had before! Life seems strange to me sometimes but I try my hardest to just flow with it. Everything happens for a reason and positivity is key! Anywho, sorry I’ve been MIA, I will try to keep you all updated on a more regular basis though I will be super duper busy with my new position for a while.
Since I’m finally sitting down to write a little I should probably throw in some homework because I’ve been seriously slacking! The first topic assigned by @missy & @rambo that I wanted to write about was my first job which was my paper route when I was 12. My whole life I just wanted to make my own money so when I was finally old enough to apply for a newspaper route I did. I was so unbelievably excited to have a job, I saved up all my money for months until I could afford a little motor scooter to drive around and deliver on. In the winter when it was too snowy to drive my scooter my mom would help me hook a sled up to our massive dog (he was a bull mastiff and the size of a small horse lol) and I would walk him along my paper route while he pulled the sled full of papers behind him. Everyone on my route absolutely loved it and were so kind to me. Once I turned 14 I quit my paper route and got my first real job in a pizza place and worked there until I was 18. I love pizza so it was heaven lol
Another homework topic I wanted to do was how to deal with haters. I feel lucky enough to not have haters like a lot of the girls I follow on Instagram, though I do get them from time to time. My reaction to rude/hurtful comments is to usually just delete the comments and block the person. I know who I am so I try my hardest to not let people who don’t know me get in my head or bother me, but I’ll admit I’m human and every once in a while something somebody says might get to me a little. I just have to remind myself that these people are not a part of my life, have never met me and don’t matter to me. I don’t need to explain myself to anyone and whatever I choose to do in my life is my business and I do it to make me happy, no one else. And if someone doesn’t like it they can SUCK IT ;)
In the time I’ve been MIA I shot with an awesome photographer (@decayedbeauty on insta) I’m sure if you follow me on Instagram you’ve seen the ones I’ve posted, but for those not on insta here are a few:
