Came across an Faith Story I had written a almost a year and a half ago, and I figured that I would add too it (those parts will not be italicized).

The Rocky Road
Like any child growing up in a Christian home, I grew up with a loving mother and father who instilled in me early in life a good Christian Foundation.  You name it, my brother, sister ( Read more... )

So due to a recent falling out there have been various thoughts flitting about through my brain trying to make sense of what even happened to begin with.  For the sake of keeping things relatively private, the bare minimum of what happened was someone attacked a person I love to pieces and made ugly accusations causing me to take the offensive and ( Read more... )

That moment when you realize that not only does your favorite black dress still not fit, but the one you had to buy last year so you actually had something to accommodate the weight gain is now too small ( Read more... )

Forewarning, I really don't want people to comment on this if it's going to be along the lines of "Don't worry, it will get better." or "Welcome to life, get used to it" or the ever favorite "I know what you're going through".  And for the love of God, please nothing remotely religious!  Religion/faith/whatever has been a rather sore issue for me ( Read more... )

Like anyone, it's really easy to forget about certain things in the world.  One thing that is really easy to forget is how cruel and nasty people can be.  Sure, you know there are people out there that seem to thrive on just being miserable but it's something that you like to be in denial about and simply overlook it.  Then reality hits and the ( Read more... )

So here it goes: I have a second interview with a photo studio!  Yes, this is in my field, and yes I would be nothing short of extremely ecstatic should I get the job.  Despite the good news, I'm being cautiously optimistic about this.  I've had second interviews with potential jobs before only to not be called back.  Ever.  Needless to say, I do ( Read more... )

And as sleep evades me yet again, I really have to wonder why I didn't think to take a Xanax.  Granted, I managed to not take anything for anxiety for the past month and a half so the question that comes to mind is why I'm even wondering about said medication to begin with.  I guess stress levels have been insurmountably higher as of late what with ( Read more... )

Well hello again. What have the past few weeks been like for me?  In short, Zac has had to help me rebuild my computer, I'm in the process of updating everything, I'm trying to figure out why I requested XP when I should have just stuck with Vista (flaws be damned), and I'm dealing with extraneous issues outside of that which is directly involved ( Read more... )

I apologize for the ridiculous amount of gloomy posts as of late, but unfortunately that seems to be where my mind has been headed over the months.  I almost broke down in tears when talking to my boyfriend earlier in the car because of things that seem to spiraling out of control for me.

Note, I do not like being out of control, and this spiral I'm ( Read more... )

So I am a college graduate.  I spent 5 years working on an art degree (my fifth year entirely on loans) which evolved into a dual major.  This very nearly zapped my sanity and caused me to have more anxiety/panic attacks that I cared to have in my last semester as a college student.  So why is it almost two years after graduating I'm still stuck ( Read more... )
