After being “dismissed” from my beloved sorority, I have been one sad lady. Nothing screams lonely like wearing flannel boxers and a sports bra while eating cereal and doing laundry all day in the summertime. My boyfriend, Scott, says he has to spend time with his family in Versailles during the week so even he isn’t here to console me. I need to get over both of those things. To continue my list of nags; my car is messed up to the point that I cannot drive it and my parents towed it back to my hometown to have it worked on. I own a scooter that I would normally zoom around on but the key to the building that it is stored in is on the same key ring with my car key with my parents…so that’s no longer an option. I have an ungodly fever blister on my hand from “stress, trauma, and heat” that is just the icing on my big, disgusting cake. It seems though, that things can only get better. I have two interviews tomorrow at two adorable little boutiques near my house. Considering the week that I have had, this is amazing news and something grand to look forward to. Possibly, it’s a good thing my new free time came this summer, my last year of college. The only thing I need to do now is find a ride to these interviews because I can and will not walk in this heat. Who wants to interview a Sweaty Betty?
Since this is my first entry I will go on to talk about my new plan. The plan is to get fabulous grades, a hot bod, and have a killer resume by the end of this year so once I graduate I can have a glimpse of hope in the world of fashion. I haven’t been very goal or future oriented in the past and that must change if I am going to survive this world and carry on living the lifestyle that I do now with my parents help. I would love to be a buyer for a small, up and coming company. It is my dream to travel and meet with designers (maybe become one myself) and learn from everyone that I come in contact with. Then, maybe one day if I ever have a family, I can settle down and start a small store of my own using the contacts I have made. What I really need to do right now is get my head out of my ass, stop focusing on the unfortunate or whether or not I’ll be married one day, I suppose that's a Southern thing, and start focusing on me and my future. Whew! It feels really great to actually come out and say what I’ve been hiding from for too long. Now, it’s off to the gym to work on my fitness, then back to the laundry and fighting eating that last piece of leftover pizza (which I ordered before my epiphany!)
