Rewind

Inhale, exhale... Practice the wisdom above. Easier said than done, right? Since I have been MIA for two years to the blogging world, I figured a quick refresher on what exactly my "past" since 2010 has been. I got a little chit-chatty during my last post so we will keep this short, sweet, and mainly a story through pictures.. (After all, who would ever pick a novel over a good ole' picture book?)

Headed Back to School to Show Dad I'm Not a Fool

After a good bit of pouting... whining about the real "costs" of an education... and telling everyone and their brother how overrated a single piece of paper is, I am back in school. Last Fall I started taking classes again at Georgia Southern University. In typical "me" fashion, I am taking online classes and don't actually live in the booming metropolis of Statesboro because going the normal route is well... too normal. As much as I still debate whether I'm making the right decision, I have managed 17 A's in less than 10 months & have a perfect GPA. Now what happened to the days when you got a buck for every A? Mom? Dad?

Adios Athens....Welcome to Atlanta (insert song)

Can't say I have a single negative thing to say about leaving Athens in my rear view mirror. Athens is a beautiful town and will always be home, but there is something not so fun about when a city of 40,000+ starts to feel like it has one stop light. Small-minded people, gossip and stale memories are sometimes best left in the dust... and it doesn't hurt that the bright lights of Atlanta are so stinkin' pretty!

Let me tell ya 'bout my Best Friend..

 

I never would've thought in the Fall of 2010 that I would be dating a guy two years later who I met begging my boss to let him walk down the runway to Taylor Swift or Top Gun tunes during a bachelor auction. No, I didn't bid on him (although that would add a new level of cheese to this story) but due to a good friend, we did end up together. I've made so many mistakes in the guy department, but I think it is safe to say I have this one right. If not, at least I know we will both be coping through the break-up with a little assistance from T-Swift.

Don't Worry About Tomorrow, God is Already There.

I've always had a relationship with God, but certain things in my life in the past few years have made me open my eyes to why I don't have a more open line of communication with Him. I've been disappointed in myself, friendships I've had, decisions I've made and why things haven't run smoothly and it all makes sense in the end. I have realized I can't expect to be surrounded by good, positive people until I become one myself. Luckily, the journey is half of the fun. 

Therefore do not worry about tomorrow, for tomorrow will worry about itself. Each day has enough trouble of its own .
