Marking the Calendars! October, 21 2010 was the day this new journey started in my life. Prior to this date, I thought I had everything at my fingertips, the career, my independence, I was in the midst of purchasing my first home...all on my own. Success finally felt reachable and I felt happy and content with where I was at. It only took 2 minutes...to change it all. Those gut wrenching unexpected words you wish you could have tuned out and just went back to work like it was one BIG dream.
I am not sure yet, a week into it where I will end up or where I want to go. I am creating this Blog, being this is a drastic event in my life, along with many others who have been through it or are going through it to record this process. I have posted all my professional and college course work to remind me everyday, that this is where I belong...this is my passion which is the foundation to my success.
So, thus far I have been getting my resume and portfolio together applying to as many jobs I have been able to find involving "kitchen design". I am applying everywhere...in hopes I am able to find another gem that suits me perfectly like my previous job. If I dont happen to find anything in a couple months when my apartment lease is up, looks like im taking a road trip and traveling!!! thats the idea anyway :o)
I am thankful I have had such a great support system, even my previous supervisor has been incredible! however, no matter how much people tell me "things will get better", "keep your head up", "you are so talented you will find something great", Its all on me to figure this out and believe all these words. I have always been a bubbly, high spirited, independent, and positive person with nothing standing in my way. The scary part is that nothing is in my way! actually its more open then I could have imagined and I have no idea what to do with it!! I cant back track, its all moving forward from here so here we go!!!
I somewhat feel like I was pushed out of a plane and im falling...and falling...to no where land wondering where my parachute is. I Have one choice: Find my parachute so I can hit the ground running...it better be a pink parachute!
Just for laughs:
