Did all of this just happened? Among other things…

I cannot believe the changes that are presently happening in my life within the past eight months which has not been an equivalent of a year yet. Yes, all of this has summed up to eight months that seems like it was not long ago at all, but you see for me it felt like a year. I guess all of the build up, planning, and some unexpected things that happened quickly all brought me to where I am now. To explain all of this first things first is on a Monday morning February 7, I walked into my supervisor’s office turned in my office keys with two pieces of paper – one was a resignation and the other one was a leave slip for taking time off in lieu to my resignation date. However, the last part did not go well but I made sure that it all worked out anyway, so I would not have to endure working in that office for two weeks until my departure date. It happened and I was still able to get a paycheck.

Another big occurrence happened when I finally moved and relocated to another state. For the first time in my life I did not let anything or anybody tell me that I could not do this. It was touch and go as to rather all of it was going to happen (financially and obtaining a job), yet so many of the same old mess were going on at my old job, and my life feeling like it was at a standstill and not moving forward that I had to make a move to change it. Afterwards, my short break from the Christmas holidays and went back to work that the job was just crazy and stressful. Now, I can fully understand when people say that when they had enough, that it is just that ENOUGH and time to give it up and move on. So, that is exactly what I had to do by basically put my faith out there in the universe. Believe it or not afterwards so many blessings have been happening since February. I wake up everyday feeling thankful!

My online college course are going smooth, but the classes are getting tough and thankfully I know that giving up is not an option. Unfortunately, the student loans are also a friendly reminder for me as well, that when I have to start paying them back at least by then it will all be worth it.

I plan on getting back on track with my writing. For some time I have been looking into doing freelance, which I probably have mentioned more than once in my previous entries yet it just I feel like it is compatible with my personality. I just cannot see how I could box myself into just one genre to write about when I can write about any and everything more than once. To me, that is the most creative part of writing which is not letting other writers, editors and publishers telling you that you have to stay writing about this particular genre. However, if as a writer you only enjoy and prefer to write specifically within one genre for instance science fiction then that is perfectly fine. Yet, don’t be afraid to try something new with your writing and branch out to a different genre as well. On a personal note, I can just see how that is my niche.
