Working Girl


I'm working hard for the money lately, hence why I haven't posted anything lately. Well, I guess that's not entirely why I haven't been writing. I usually write when I have some sort of epiphany or complex thoughts rifling in my brain. But, I've been thinking about how I missed writing, so I'm back to the blog. (if anyone's reading anyway)


While I am happy to be working at all so I can pay rent, bills, etc., I am a little dissappointed in myself. I have a degree and I'm working to the equivalent of a McDonald's and Starbucks combination. I want to use my degree that cost thousands in a job I truly excel at.


But I digress.


I am working nice, long hours to make up for my summer hiatus, and I'm proud that I can do a job that requires 8 hours or more. Being a former college student, such a shift came once or twice a month. Now that I'm in the "real world" the 8 hour shift comes daily. I believe I have handled this "big girl job hours" quite well and without complaints. It lets me know that I can work that long in the job I LOVE!!


Oh, and on another note, I do hate the phrase "real world," but it seemed appropriate and it's meant to be sarcastic. I don't know how the world could get more real, so I hate when people say, "Well, when you enter the real world blah blah blah." This is the real world and don't talk down to me like you know something I don't.


Anyways, those are my ramblings for the day.


Peace Out :)
