I think I have the idea

This morning I just started to write what ever came to mind, and it started to sound good. I think I got a good start for a book, or at least an idea. I'm not sure where this will end, because as I write more ideas keep coming up and it all keeps changing, but … Continue reading I think I have the idea

Sending more job applications

Today I was going to send out job applications, again, but I only sent one. I have a list of places to send my resume and cover letter just hoping they will have something for me. But this process is not easy and does not get easier. I have a new cover letter talking about … Continue reading Sending more job applications

Stop, just think about it before running away

I have issues, issues with too many people around me. I was at the gym tonight and it was very, very, really full of people. I almost left, but as I was going to get my water bottle I noticed one person leaving, so I stood there for a second and thought, I need to … Continue reading Stop, just think about it before running away

Walking with #teamsusie

Tonight I joined Team Susie in one of their daily (or nightly) walks. We walked from Miramar, to Condado, and back. I had never joined Team Susie for one of these walks because I thought it would be boring, but it turns out it wasn't. I spent the whole 1:30 talking to one of my … Continue reading Walking with #teamsusie

Let’s do this!

This Sunday, I will complete my fifth 5k in 3 years. 5 in 3 years! I think that’s more than I have done in my lifetime. Before this I had done 2, maybe 3, but that’s it. Now, I've been running at least one 5k a year. It’s hard to believe that I would be … Continue reading Let’s do this!

Better posture = better mood

I think we have all noticed that everyday people are spending more time looking at their mobile devices than at other people, or the world around them. If you haven’t, it’s probably because you have been looking at your phone. This not only takes you away from he real world, the world around you, but … Continue reading Better posture = better mood

Don’t make excuses, just do it

Today I decided to read other blogs.  I started reading blog posts by other writers, or aspiring writers, like me.  I thought it would help me, but it wasn't as fun as a thought it would be.  What I read was how there are no jobs, how they have quit jobs to pursue writing but … Continue reading Don’t make excuses, just do it

When I realized I was accepted

 It's old news, but I get so happy every time I see it. This was when I realized, after the accident, that I had been accepted at Newhouse to do my masters in journalism.  I had gotten the letter of acceptance before the accident, but I didn't remember.  I still don't remember getting it, my … Continue reading When I realized I was accepted

I thought this was only gonna be a once a week thing, but why limit myself?

Never say this is too hard, I’m tired, I don’t want to try anymore, this is not fair, I quit. All those thoughts ran through my mind once or twice in the past few years, but I never let them stay there. That’s just what they were, random thoughts. The one’s that stuck around and … Continue reading I thought this was only gonna be a once a week thing, but why limit myself?
