I'm terrible at blogs!  I thought I could be one of those girls who has a successful blog but the only thing that I update daily is my Tumblr.
Over a year later and I'm still at my same job.  8 years now.  I took a second job at Lake Raystown Resort from July-October.  Saved up some money.  Still have a while to go...
I think I'm going to move to a random city and find a job.  Clear my head of all of these negative people and 'friends' I used to have.
The only person I can count on is myself.

I'm going to the OBX for a few days at the end of the month.  I think I'm going to do some kind of cleanse to try and get my body a little more beach ready.

I'm am so excited!  I love the Outer Banks.  So much.

I Can Hear You in the Overtones

I can't wait to move away from the Cove.  Almost everyday now, since I've graduated college, I go to a job that I've had for 7 years.  It's draining.  I need the money.  I wish money wasn't so important to me.  I've always told myself that I would never be one of those people who thinks that money is truly important, but I've failed myself.  I think it's very important and I worry about it constantly.  How can one save money when you constantly have bills and such?

I just want to be free!  I want to travel but have no one to go with.  I want to see more of the United States and eventually the world.  My wanderlust is growing stronger everyday.  

Friendship and Webs

Things get so muddled so very quickly.
We can only weave our webs for so long before our threads get thinner and thinner.  Before you know it, your ties have been severed.
Friendship is like that, at times.  The people that you cling to with your friendship thread become lost in a sea of people that you once knew.  I feel like my sea of used to be friends grows larger and deeper every year.

Graduation

I graduate from college on May 10th.  This Saturday.

As much as I am excited, I'm scared.  I'm more scared than I think I've ever been.  It's a real, tangible fear.  Not like being afraid of ghosts or monsters.  What will happen?  Where will I end up?  The world is so great and booming; always moving.  Where do I belong?

I want to be happy and successful in whatever I choose to pursue as a career.  I want to do something great, leave my name somehow.  I don't want to be forgotten.  I'm only 22 (23 on the 13th) and I have to constantly remind myself that I have so much time left.  I just need to stop feeling like the walls are closing in when there's no way in hell that they are.
