Currently

Time | 11:22 PM

Eating | Crackers and Cheese. No I am not on a diet, it’s convenient food.
Watching | YouTube, and then Power in a few minutes.
Feeling | Fatigued. After my Skype meeting at 5:30 this afternoon, I immediately jumped in the shower and fell asleep by 6:30. Explains why I am up currently.
Thinking | About this month and how tired I am. I’ve been hustling. I’ve been to Manhattan and Brooklyn more times than I can remember within this month. I completed my third interview for the week this morning and I am praying that one of them work out. Because if I am honest I prayed for this. Look at GOD.
Reading | Terry McMillian – I Almost Forgot About You. Although this book isn’t in my age range, the lesson I think I am getting out of it so far is; telling the people you love/loved that you love them. The love lesson is based on relationships and I am happy that I used the few opportunities I had to tell the men I once loved or the one I love, that I love them.
Anticipating | Sweater season and the end of August. The one thing I love about the North/ East side is the change in season. It’s awesome. I don’t like it crazy cold but as long as it’s comfortable. End of August post coming soon.

7 days left, let us Pray!

No Accidents

Disclaimer: This company no longer exist.
Finished my school orientation and as I exited the building, I realized that everything happens for a reason. I stopped midway through the door as I stood to stare at the building across the street. The building across the street was the start of my career. I was 19 years old when I did my research about that agency. Told myself that I would be working for them by the age of 21. I started my two weeks of training at the ending of July in 2010, just a few months after my 21st birthday. That job didn’t pay, but I loved it.
In 2010, I knew that my purpose was to impact other peoples lives. Case in point, I sat on the phone for an hour today with a client about her steps to obtain her high school equivalency diploma. She admitted to her poor choices and was ashamed that she didn’t complete High School. Being the counselor (said loosely) that I am, there are days that I have to be patient and personal. I shared stories of the places I’ve been, the people I know, the people I may have lost, and the direction I would like to go.
Nothing happens by accident. The places I had the opportunity to see are not an accident. This school isn’t an accident. My first social service job wasn’t an accident. The people I’ve met or lost, are not accidents. Somethings may have been done backwards but I am on the path I belong on. I truly believe this.
This is a God Dream y’all.
The nostalgia that I felt as I strolled down Hudson Street, with my Itunes on shuffle, listening to music that reminded me of good times, bad times, friends, and even lovers. Today was alright!

August of 2016, so far, let’s continue to pray, a few more days left.

August

I was really about to start a currently post but remembered it was August. Honestly, I am flowing this month. If you know me, you will know that August and I don’t get along. But this month we will work on having a much better relationship. So no, I will not talk about my plans for the month, nor will I stress about anything. I am going to get through August with prayer and patience. But through out the time, I’ll talk about my boring/eventful weekends, or something I would like to share with you.
However,
I am going to watch Sunday’s episode of Power, drink tea, budget my month of expenses, internet window shop, search airline ticket prices for September/October because the plan I’d like to move forward with needs to be put into action so I must go and make things happen, and last but not least; I’ll prep my salmon for lunch/dinner tomorrow.
I hope everyone is enjoying their summer, can’t complain, it has been cool besides the usual ADULTING.

Until next time,
