Status Update

So my summer wasn't all that great. I never managed to find a job to pay for my tuition in time. So what am I doing now? I moved back in with Mommy. I know, I feel shameful that I couldn't make it on my own. But I swear the next time I move out I will not be moving back unless a great tragedy befalls me like death or disease. But setting aside the mellow drama, I did manage to find a job near my mom's place. I'm basically a pet janitor. I clean up after dogs, I provide them with sustenance, and play with them for about four hours a day. It has its pros and cons. I love it though because it helps me think about my life and appreciate it more. I'm earning double the money than I was before. I'll be out of debt soon but the Texas State Fair is coming up and that event may hinder me a bit in my budget. You can tell from my other blog that I am what they call a Foodie. Basically a person who enjoys food a lot and is a borderline addict. I enjoy trying new fried foods that come out every year. It's like a tasty adventure but my mother just thinks I'm fat. It's not like I want to gorge on food all day, I just want a taste of everything. Tasting flavors can bring inspiration or fond memories to light. I wanted to be a chef when I was little but I didn't have the confidence especially with my mom's countless off color remarks resounding in my head. If you've ever watched Awkward. on MTV then you get what I mean when I say my mom is a bonafide care confrontation letter kind of mom only verbally and so into your face you can smell her words before she finishes saying them. Another reason I was reluctant and unhappy about moving back in with her. Maybe I should have sent all my things to her and just lived in a shelter on the street? I kid but seriously she can really lay into you if you're not strong enough mentally. Enough rambling so here are my goals:

1) Pay off all my credit card debts
2) Pay off library fees and other debts
3) Save up money to cover tuition fees
4) Save up to go half on a used car
5) Get my driver's license
6) Help my mother pay my brother back for installing our new air conditioner
7) Sign up for 2013 classes
8) Save up money to move the eff out!

Hopefully I'll graduate by 2014. I really need to work hard because now that I've hit rock bottom there's no where else to go but up. I have to climb out of this rut and live my life responsibly. I can't rely on people to bail me out anymore. I can't act like a spoiled child. I need to succeed and thrive. I'm also trying to publish some ebooks so that I can have some start up capital for my marketing ventures that I want to start. There so much I want to do I just really need to focus on managing my time more effectively so I won't fail in the business world. Donald Trump one day I will come after you and take your spot at the top! That is my goal peeps.

Look forward to more posts and excerpts from new books coming out soon. Once I've blogged at least 365 pages I might consider converting my blog into a book as well. Maybe some bored teenager or house wife will find interest in my life's discoveries?
