get out of debt (read all 2 entries…)
Standing Still 3 months ago

So I gave myself one week to get this started and it’s Wednesday and I haven’t moved on it yet…I got a letter from a collection agency last night and have been too scared to call. I hate seeming like I’m irresponsible, when really it’s just been a lot of little things that have added up that have caused my inability to pay. I’m hoping to work out a plan with the collection agency to get this moving, I just have to work out the courage to call..



wake up earlier
Off to a rocky start 3 months ago

So this whole waking up earlier things isn’t really working for me this week.
I’ve never been a morning person and no matter how hard I try to force myself to be one I just really love sleep too much. I need to learn to get by on less. Seriously if I don’t get 9-10 hrs of sleep I get so cranky. I have to be at work by 9, and that’s fine but I really want to get up at 7, if not earlier-but I’m not going to push it, 7 is my goal for now. so far this week:
Monday: 7:40
Tuesday: 7:25
Wednesday: 7:40
Ridiculous! That I can’t get out of bed when my alarm goes off, every morning I get so mad at myself. Oh well, tomorrow’s a new day…let’s see how that goes.



Write more
All heroes need an origin story... 3 months ago

I have been having trouble writing lately. Writing is 100% what I am passionate about, and what I definitely know that I want to pursue. Ever since I graduated from college in 2008 I’ve had a hard time focusing on anything to write for longer then a page or two. Maybe it’s got something to do with that pesky little “real world” thing I was thrust into with no warning. Either way I vowed to myself that I would start writing again soon.

That’s where NaNoWriMo comes in. I signed up to do it this November. But WOW an entire novel in one month? Sounds horrifically stupid to me, but I’m going to go with the flow and challenge myself to do it. Sounds less horrific and more exciting as the time goes by :)
