How I did it: I told people I wanted to get volunteer hours and they gave me suggestions. My friend was my connection with a leader at the Boys and Girls club who ended up needing a nutrition educator. Perfect! I also tried my teachers and explored different clubs at my college. Read how I did it…
It’s been on my mind but I just haven’t acted upon it yet. To help me get it over with I think I must…
1. Pick a location for the capsule
2. Find envelopes/paper to carry with me and ask friends to write a message for the future.
3. Get off my butt and get it done!
For 2 1/2 years I have been working the same job, and I have been saying “I really need to find a new job” for just as long. It’s an okay job but insanely boring, no possibility of advancement, and I work with two especially annoying older guys who are my peers but they look down on me constantly and try to get me in trouble with my boss whenever possible. Besides the two previously mentioned, I love everyone I work with and I’ve made some amazing friendships with them which is why I stayed so long. Actually, another good reason for leaving is that another older male, co-worker is making me REALLY uncomfortable. So I got off my butt and started applying for anything.
Unexpectedly, an amazing teacher at my college posted a part-time position as a nutrition assistant that pays more and would be an AMAZING way for me to start my career off as a dietitian. I applied and got a call back. I gave a pretty good interview and did a sample presentation of how I would teach children about nutrition. I almost didn’t go through with it but I’m really trying to pull my act together and be more driven…I hope it pays off! I find out either way if I made it or not July 3, 2009!
I really want to complete this before summer is over so I can wear a bathing suit and be proud!
In between work and summer clases, I must…
-exercise at least 30 min everyday.
-visit the gym at least 2xs a week.
-cut out snacking and junk food
-get 8 hours of sleep every night so I have the energy to exercise!
If I follow through with all of these for at least one week….I would be happy
