BlogTember Day 7

Thursday, September 12: Discuss ways that blogging or social media has changed you.

MAN! MAN! Im  impressed with myself for holding out till day 7. I’m surprised that I'm actually blogging so today is just an AWE day. LOL!

Social media has changed me because I am a social media addict. I love Twitter, Instagram and Vine! Facebook not so much anymore. If it weren’t for family and close friends I probably wouldn’t be up there anymore. In the next year or so I will probably be out the loop all together and just let them reference the blog OR just pick up the phone to give a sister a holla!  Social media has opened up a line communication to the world that who knew was possible a few years ago.  Who would have thought that you would have a random thought…type it out in 140 characters or less and share that it could be spread all the way to Africa if you have a follower there. To me that is AMAZING!  Social media has changed the world I live in. I'm even more connected to people that I might not have had an opportunity to be connected with before. Just loves it! Now if I could find a job working with social media…we might be on to something LOL!!

Good Days Guys!

BlogTember Day 7

Wednesday, September 11: Share links to your favorite online shops, preferably with a few photos of your favorite items in each shop.

I don't really do any online shopping.  Now that I think about it I don't really do any shopping unless its a special event. Like yesterday I went to Dilliards to find a dress for one of my good friends wedding reception.  My Ash Cash got married this past Friday!! Congrats boo!! But, I found a cute flowy maxi dress for the event that was less than $15!!Whose winning?? This girl!

Anywho

Not one to shy away from a challenge I had to think of something to post. So I decided to go with a website that I frequent a lot in hopes that one day everything I have on my wish list I will get! What website is this you ask? Well its:

Blogtember Day 6

Tuesday, September 10: Describe a distinct moment when your life took a turn.


I would  have to say in February of 2012 I lost my job with a company I was contracting for. Now mind you I knew that the job would be ending but not 6 months prior to that. I believed that as the first person on I would be the last person out. I was mistaken. So, I worked in two different cities 30 minutes apart. I would travel to both during the week. In the middle of the project I was working primarily in one. My part wasn't doing as well as the other considering that I was the only one in my city and the other city had 3 or 4 people Monday-Friday. So who would think that my city would be doing better when I'm the only one busting my ASS?!

ANYWHO

Although I didn't particularly like my job, I was good at what I did so when I was told that I would be the one let go! I was SO SAD...what was  I going to do for money...how was I going to survive? Then I got kinda excited because it was an opportunity for a new beginning and a chance to be away from the place that I wasn't happy in. My refund check came around that time as well as my unemployment so for a good month I was living high off the hog. Until I started my job hunt again and ended up with NOTHING. I went on several interviews and no one was biting. Up to this point, this time was probably the lowest in my life. Being unemployed, someone broke into my house, I had an accident in my car just to name a few things going on and not to mention the bills that kept adding and adding UP.

In September of 2012 I finally found a dead end job that allowed me to get off of unemployment but I was barely making it by. Furthermore I HATED THAT PLACE!

That time in my life taught me a lot about who I was and money management. Still trying to grasp this whole money management thing but I'm learning. I'm no longer at the dreadful place and now at a new one that I don' mind and the potential to move up is A HUGE POSSIBILITY.  So...my big homie upstairs was working it out for me an placed me where I needed to be. And for that I'm thankful.

BlogTember Day 5

Hey guys! Hope your weekend was filled with fun!! I didn't do much because I'm fighting this pesky cold. But I did get the opportunity to hang out with some of my family for my grandmothers 80th birthday dinner!! It was fun fun fun to say the least! My family is BETTER than your FAMILY! Nope...just kidding...but they are the absolute BEST although they get on my nerves.

So I am keeping u p with this blogging during the week thing and I'm impressed with myself! HEHE! So here are the results of my personality test.

The extrovert aspect is so true!! I am a TRUE extravert. Or at least I think so. The others....IDK!

Here is an explanation of the ENFJ personality HERE but I'm not quite sure how accurate it is. While I was doing this I accidentally missed a question and when I went back all the questions were blank. And I wasn't getting ready to go back and do all 100 questions AGAIN.....I ain't got the TIME! So when I went forward my results were still there so I kept it!

Anywho! Those are my results! What are yours?

Happy Monday

Blogtember Day 4

Friday, September 6: A story about a time you were very afraid.

I don't know if I have ever experienced a time I was very afraid. Like afraid I was going to DIE! I don't think I have ever experienced that....if I did I must have blocked it out!!! So what I'm going to do is list some things that I am afraid of.

1. I'm afraid of DYING
I know that one day everyone will DIE! But I have a fear that I will die before accomplishing everything I set out to do.

2.I'm afraid of ghosts and scary movies
LISTEN.........you can't pay me money to see a scary movie. I know that it is made up and its just a MOVIE but BABAY.......I will be jumping all over the place.

3.I'm afraid of insects
I hate them...that is ALL.

4.My nephews being hurt while under my care.
Let me tell y all....my nephews are my world. Kids get HURT....I know this and I would hate for them to get hurt PERIOD but getting hurt while with ME....just take me to the KING because I will be distraught.

That is all....I'm doing so well this week(MINUS TUESDAY) but hopefully I can keep this up for next week. It might be beneficial to plan over the weekend!! Actually I think I will do that!!!

You guys Have a good WEEKEND

BlogTember Day 3

So I'm back with another post. I can really get use to this who blogging thing. I just need a rhythm and I'm good!  :)

So day 3 topic is: Pass on some useful advice or information you learned and always remembered


One piece of advice that or information that I have learned and have a hard time remembering is that you should always follow your heart and do what you want.  If it is right everything will work out in the end….if not then there are plenty of lessons that will prepare/help you later on in life. So its a win/win anyway you look at it!


Thats it! Short and sweet!!

Until Next Time Guys!
