It's been awhile =/

So it's been awhile since I've written a blog. So much as gone on, I don't even know where to begin. I have been working my ass off at lowe's. I finally got my first paycheck and lets just say that I can't wait til the next one. My tutition finally got paid thanks to my parents and I recieved my diploma-->which was a Bachelor's of Science-in Agricultural Education! That makes me soo excited. Now I just have to pass the Praxis II and then I can apply for certification. As for what's going on now, my mom and I are not seeing eye to eye. On Saturday, I had off of work and I wanted to go easter bunny shopping with her. So we went to go shopping and when I told her that I didn't want to run to wilmington (which is a good hour away) she got mad and it ruined the whole day. We were pulling into Cheswold and she was like don't go speeding into town and I told her that I drive by myself everyday and I don't need her to tell me how to drive. So that pissed her off even more. After we left the post office, she told me to either go to Randy's or go home because she didn't want to go shopping anymore. I told her to stop joking, in the end we ended up at home. On the way home I tried to calmly tell her that we could still go shopping if she could just let it go but NO she couldn't let it go. Not mom, she had to ruin the whole day. So after we got home, she left and I had Marie pick me up. I picked up the car later that night only because I had to work on Easter. My mom and I haven't talked since. I mean we've been civil but no sorry's or anything. I refuse to say that I am sorry because in my eyes I didn't do anything wrong. Just because I didn't want to go run errands for her, she got pissed. I don't know what to do. I want things to be alright but this time, for once in my life, I am not apologizing first. Well thats all for now, I've vented enough. I just hope things get better, soon. Til next time =/

16L--->What the hell??

So after I finished up my first day at Lowe's I went home and my mom came into my room. She had a pair of jeans in her hands. She told me to try them on because they didn't fit her anymore. So I asked her what size they were and she said they were 16L. I told her she was crazy because there was no way I was fitting into them! But to humor her, I tried them on and believe it or not they fit! They were a little snug but I didn't have muffin tops! I was ecstatic. I haven't fit into jeans this size since I was in high school! FREAKIN' HIGH SCHOOL!!!!!! For anyone that said I was fat, or that I couldn't lose weight......HAHA; IN YOUR FACE!!!! I'm doing it this time and I'm doing it for me. I am determined to lose 100 lbs. I've lost 20 so far so that means I only have 80 to go! As long as I eat right and do what I'm supposed to, I should be good. Weight watchers has really been great for me. I've been able to follow it this time and its easier than last time. Wish me luck, til next time =]

Day 1: Check

So I started my job at Lowe's today. All we did was sit in for orientation, which was 7 hours of BS lol. It's not going to be bad at all. Tomorrow I go back for computer work which should be interesting. Who knows whats gonna happen lol. I found out that the job in SC was filled but that wont stop my job search. My mom asked me if I really thought that I needed to more or get away. I told her yes. I need to make my way in the world. I need to do me, Katie. She asked if I hated it here at home and I don't hate it, I'm just unhappy with it. I want to live my life, free. I just need to do me plain and simple. No excuses. Well that's it for now, til next time =]

Not so happy =/

So I just got back from shopping because I needed to get jeans for my new job @ Lowe's tomorrow. However, I went to 5 different places and none of them had jeans that fit me! For god's sake, I just lost 20lbs on weight watchers!!! If they fit me in the waist then they were 4 inches too short. If they were long enough then they were baggy in the waist. I just want to find some jeans that fit me in the waist and length wise. Its just pure frustrating. I guess its also more motivation to go lose more weight. Shopping is one of the things that I want to enjoy. But for me, as a bigger/plus size girl, shopping just plain sucks. It seems like things never really fit me the right way. The only thing that fits perfect is a freakin' t-shirt! On another note, I've been considering a job in South Carolina. I really want to apply and the more I think about it the more I want to. I would be closer to my grandmother and my dad. I would be teaching and doing something I love in a state that I love. On another note I would be leaving my family and friends in Delaware. Plus my boyfriend Randy, which I don't wanna leave. Randy is getting ready to go to school in August to be a diesel mechanic. He'll be gone for a year. So I figured that while he's gone for that year, I can go and be with my family down south and teach. I don't know exactly what to do. Should I apply? I mean just because I apply doesn't mean I'll get an interview and futher doesn't mean I'll get the job. We'll see how things go. Until next time =]

About me & the blogg

This is my blog that I am going to be keeping. Topics can range from life lessons, life goals, career news and just general things. I am a 22 year old college graduate. I graduated with a bachelor's in Agricultural Education. I am currently looking for teaching jobs, teaching high school students. I know I am crazy but I love that age group! I just got a summer job working at Lowe's as a seasonal cashier. Hopefully they'll work the hell out of me because I wanna make some money this summer!! I am currently in a relationship with the most amazing guy ever! We have our differences but at the end of the day, he's my bestfriend and I'm his. He's the twinkle to my bug star!! I love him so much. I spend every weekend with him and our adorable puppy named Remi =] She is the apple of my eye. Well I think that's all for now. If you have any questions feel free to comment! Goodnight all =]
