“Maybe we're not supposed to be happy. Maybe gratitude has nothing to do with joy. Maybe being grateful means recognizing what you have for what it is. Appreciating small victories. Admiring the struggle it takes simply to be human. Maybe we're thankful for the familiar things we know. And maybe we're thankful for the things we'll never know. At the end of the day, the fact that we have the courage to still be standing is reason enough to celebrate.”
Javale at it again -_-

Woah 2012!
In the first 9 days of the new year… 2012 really took it’s nice big clammy hand and slapped me across the face. So insane how busy I’ve been these past 9 days.
Where to start…
Work (Story of my life…)
Work has been unbelievable great, busy, stressful, emotional, motivating, inspiring, thrilling, annoying, and all of the above. It’s really stressing me out that all I keep hearing from my bosses is, “no, no, no, no.” Just shut the front door and let me work. You want me to sell? Well I’m selling my tits off here. In my market specifically, sales does not only consists of good market evaluation, product branding, product representation, but also JUICY CREATIVE SEXINESS. My clients are begging me to be INSPIRED. As their rep, I feel obligated to lobby for them, to push my company, to REALLY WORK towards a sexier product to present to them. At first, I was so scared to take this job because I was worried I wouldn’t get to flex my creative muscles enough. But I am so surprised at how much I have been able to flex them lately. I see a lot more opportunity for me to flex them in the upcoming months. But what’s even better is that I GET TO FLEX THIS CREATIVITY TO MY FULLEST CONTROL AND DIRECTION. Do you know how unbelievably refreshing this is?! :)
But…
It’s not coming easily. It’s not coming easily for a couple of reasons.
1. They do not trust me. The marketing and product development team do not trust my eye… yet. I have to keep in mind that I never showed my portfolio for this job. It was not my creativity that got me this job but, rather my aptitude for my market.
2. I am allll the way in CA while the “brain trust” is in NY.
3. I am the low man on the totem pole.
So although it is fun, exhilarating, and I love love love my job… It is also very challenging. Which is leading to this stress I am feeling. Ugh. Hate stress. But at least, it’s good stress? If such a thing even exists…
But that’s work…. What’s next?
School.
Not just school but, online ASU classes….
Wow, it is so hard to get back into the groove. BUT! I must push myself. I know I have it within me to rise above this and… well… GET. IT. DONE.
There are no excuses. I must get this degree, and I must get it OVER with. For my personal goals in life and also to get my damn Korean family off my friggin back. But mainly because, I know when I’m 40, I will look back on my 20’s and think, “Man, I should’ve just gotttterr done when I was young.”
Plus, Matt and I have goals in life that we would like to achieve… TOGETHER. (Even though, he is sleeping on the sofa right now…. He fell asleep watching NatGeo. He promised to stay up with me as I push through my assignments. It’s the thought that counts.) These goals that we want to achieve… they are important to me, and they are important to us. For those reasons, I must push through.
Yes….traveling, having the best job in the world, getting paid good money, and the gig comes with relatively acceptable/manageable stress levels… Why would I go back to school? Why not just work my tits off 5028931827309 times harder and make my way up and become that millionaire without a bachelors degree? (Kinda like Steve Jobs… but in my own cute Erin Brokavich/Meredith Grey way…)
Anyways… you get the idea. I want this thing and I’m gon’ get it. Boom. End of story.
So lastly, I could go into my 3rd little rant…. Naturally you must be thinking it’s going to be about my lovely (cough.) boyfriend. Wrong!
I played a fun game with myself today. Instead of being a nasty creature of habit, listening to the same Kaskade playlist day in and day out. I changed it up. I hit shuffle, and then I hit play. I let the first song go. Then I let the 2nd, 3rd, 4th, 5th, etc…..
Oh my GOSH! I have never been in such an amazing mood since 2012 (minus NYE) started!!!! With each song, an old memory! Good memories and bad memories, it was good to take a minute and go back. Not to be all mushy and pensive but, there were a lot of memories I tucked away over the years. It’s crazy how one song can bring me back.
Anyways, where I’m trying to go with this whole thing is that, I was thinking about the past and who I used to be. It makes me very happy. Happy to have had those memories that made me who I am today. (Cheesy line, barf.) But it also gives me hope for my future. It gives me hope to know that I will be okay, and I will make it. I mean, look at what I’ve accomplished in my short 21 years? (Keeping in mind that I had to work my tits off and slave for about 17 years.) I am so happy that I can hope for the future. Because without hope, I think I’d be lost. (Stop reading if you hate ooey-gooey-christiany-thingys) But without the faith and hope of Jesus, I would be so lost. And it’s not my faith in Jesus but, rather my faith of Jesus that has brought me this far. And for that, all I can really do is say… cheers to that! (insert beer mug emjoicon.)
Okay enough of that, since I like to keep this neutral. I count my blessings everyday and give it my all. Cause if I didn’t really give it my all… well then that means I’m doing a crappy job. And I don’t want to look back on a pile of poop. ^__^
