Hey,
I haven’t wrote on here in a very long time. I actually miss
it a lot. I guess I’ll have to do some updating.
- I decided to finally move to Florida. I mean, I had always decided that I was going to go somewhere different but now I have a real chance of making it out there. I am in a pretty good place in my life currently. I have a really good amount of work experience under my belt and I am definitely more mature than I was a few years ago. I know some friends that currently live down there that I miss a bunch. They’ve been telling me for the last year or so that I should come down. I’ve decided that once my lease is up for my apartment in February of 2015 I’m just going to drive down. I’m selling all of my furniture, keeping pots and pans and only packing the cutest and most reasonable of clothes and just hitting the road. My friend Shayla is going to drive down there with me! I’m so excited but I’m definitely going to miss her a lot!
- Update for car accident news! Apparently I made the wrong decision with the lawyer that I went through. Apparently, they only “work” when I call them and make sure they are doing their “job”. The accident was back in August and they still haven’t been working on my case and are only just now turning in what they need to for my car insurance to process everything. It’s really becoming a source of frustration for me as the hospital bills are piling up and they told me not to pay any of them; that they will be taken care of.
- I bought a new car! Since my car had been totaled in the accident, I went and bought a new car. I have a 2010 Hyundai Accent. Her name is Shiloh (will upload a photo when I can) She is gorgeous and I love her! I bought her at around 73,000 miles and she runs beautifully. The best things I love is that she has power windows and power locks; AND THE CRUISE CONTROL WORKS! Those are things that Ana (1993 Plymouth Acclaim) did not have! I need to make a quite a bit of money because I have to buy my tags (which I haven’t done yet) and since my car costs around $8,600 my tags (I hear) are going to be around $700/$800. I currently only have $450 and a lot of that will be used for rent next week. UGH!!!
- I need to start job hunting in Florida. I really have been looking for administrative positions, copy writing (my life dream) positions or just anything else that doesn’t require manual/general labor. I have gained a lot of experience in a large variety of areas over the last seven years that I’ve been working; hopefully I can find something that will pay me really well! I look forward to being in a new city and hope this life change will be very rewarding!
- I’ve started my natural hair journey! I’ve also started a youtube channel documenting it (Which I will add a link HERE later when I can J). I cut my hair into a very short asymmetrical bob back in May 2014 and I got a relaxer that same day. I haven’t had a relaxer since then and my hair is so much longer than it was! My left side wasn’t even longer than my earlobe and now it’s almost touching my collarbone. On November 1, 2014 I started my Six Month Natural Hair Challenge. I am using only natural hair products on my hair. This includes using only products that can be consumed (coconut oil, eggs, baking soda, apple cider vinegar, water, etc.). I’m also not using any heat on my hair. That includes no flat iron, curling iron or blow dryers. I also have been washing my hair almost twice a week and moisturizing it daily with water, coconut oil and this natural Shea Butter that my sister’s friend makes (I will upload a tag/link or name HERE once I get ahold of all that information J). My hair is healthier and prettier than it has ever been in my entire life. Check out my channel and subscribe! I’ll probably post about two videos a month and maybe more depending on the process I do and time that I have!
- I am going to write for Harlequin! I am currently in the process of writing a 50,000 word novel for Harlequin! I have always loved their books and wanted to write for this but now I’ve decided to do it! I’ve also given myself until January 1, 2015 to finish the first draft of the novel I’m submitting! I need to get to work! I’ve done the outline but have not actually started the novel! OMG!!!
- Also! I am still writing the online novel for the yellow book project. I put my first novel Hunter on it from the Dark Warriors series! Link is below! Enjoy! http://theyellowbookproject.blogspot.com/
