wowza!

To say the least, it has been a littttle hectic lately. This week has been one of those weeks that its just non stop things to do, places to be! working 3 jobs, taking 15 credits and trying to maintain status in 1 club, and trying to learn and take on the role as future president of the other club (exposed photography club) gets a little exhausting, mentally and physically! I am not complaining, i set all this up for myself, and i do not plan on eliminating any of these circumstances. But dont get me wrong, there are times, more often than not, that i wish i could leave for 2 weeks to a sandy beach and pretend this busy-ness does not exsist :)

Sometimes all it takes is just to kinda mentally step back, breathe and know that I am doing what i should be doing, and that what i am doing is going to take me places! where? uhh i dont know! sometimes its exciting NOT to know though. But being so busy, sorta keeps me "grounded" and it keeps my head on straight. i DO wish sometimes i had more time for a social life, black out nights and days to be hung over with no obligations, but i kinda have been there done that. and being hung over sunday after homecoming was not very convincing of wanting that lifestyle back haha. I know i am in the right place, and I am learning a lot along the way. time management is HUGE for me right now, thank god for planners and free printable daily time schedules on the internet, right? Right!!


I am sitting in the pawn at schoool (little cafe cafeteria deal) grabbing lunch before work, usually i dont have time to, but my professor was sick and canceled class. (totally okay with me) So then i work for a couple hours, then dropping of some $$ to Stout retail association and grab some fundraisers things i have to sell. Then off to the library to literally spend the rest of my evening/night there. I have an internship interview with khols tomorrow. I believe its a management training position. Me a manager? its weird to think about. REALLY weird. But honestly, i think i could handle it. So i will be pretty much studying interview questions alll night just like im studying for an exam.
My interview is on Wednesday with Khols, then all wednesday night i will be studying for an exam on thursday which is the first exam in the class, so covering like 2+ months of material, so that will be a long night as well.
then (thanks to buddy my co worker who is working at the bar for me) Thursday night i will studying again, interview questions and practicing interviewing. theres "mock" interviews online career services provides that you interview into your webcam, then can watch it back. so i think i may give that a try, weird! all this because i have another interview with target stores on friday! I think target will go better since i had already practiced with khols. I haven't had a "REAL" Job interview i dont think yet. Ofcourse ive had interviews, but those were for dinky part time jobs, nothing TOOOO serious.
These job interviews, if i get accepted, could be a start to some direction in my life. Figure out what i wanna do, if i do the internship and i dont like it, i know thats not my thing and i could go in a diff direction, if i do the intern and i like it, and im good at it, i could have my career set (if theyd offer me a full time pos after college) SOOO in the long run, these next couple days can be BIG. Even if i dont get offered positions, its okay, it will be great interview practicing to see how its like.
Im dreading when they ask the question "what do you wanna do shannon" because frankly, im still trying to figure that out. SUCH a loaded question, corporate, store mamangement? buyuing? merchandising? please dont ask me that, because im young, i dont know yet, and im trying to figure that out still. thanks.

I was suppose to start P90x today, but instead im gonna attempt the 30day shred by jillian michaels, i really wanna loose 15-20 lbs. but with how busy i am, its really hard to take 2 hours to work out everyday, its what i want most even right now, and i just cant fit that in my schedule right now.. i take it day by day, if i can fit a workout in one day, i will. I am a huge stress eater too, so obvi with all this going on the last couple weeks, its been brutal on me & weight. I dont have time to COOK healthy meals, i have time to throw something in the microwave that cooking+eating takes less than 15 minutes. BOOOO. okay, enough of that. blah blah wah wah.


Anyway, im off to get some more things done. If you've read this, which i really dont think anybody does, which is totally okay. Kind of just ranting to myself sometimes :) but IF you are, wish me luck and cross your fingers and send good vibes my way, thatd be great :)

TaTa for now loves!
