Today's favorite song: "Wild Blue by John Mayer" on repeat.
today was a good day. and not just an average good day either. I'm taking about one of those rare days where your confidence comes back from the extended vacation it's been on. one of those days where you realize, you can do the things you've talked yourself out of for far too long.
today, I passed my state exam to be a real estate agent.
I've never been a person who excelled in school. in high school I would skip school to go work, and by the time that I got off of work I was so tired that I went home and passed out, rather than completing my homework. so naturally I graduated high school with a 2.1 GPA with zero intentions of ever going to college. I was so sure of this that I've never taken the SAT or whatever the other one is. although some good came from this, it's always been something I'm a little self conscious about. what good could have come from that you might ask? well, the best thing that came out of it is my insane work ethic. it is the one thing about me I am most proud of. I'm 28 and have never been fired from a job. and trust me, I've had A LOT of jobs. but I think the reason I'm so hungry to do well is because I never want to revert back to how it was when I was a kid. this is the first time, in a very, very long time that I've had only one job. for some reason, I've aways been much happier with multiple outlets. and what I've realized in this time with one job, is that I absolutely fucking hate it. it is truly one of the most boring things I've ever done. which is why, things are about to change and my life is going to get so much busier, but in a way that makes me excited to manage it. I will be the full time caregiver for my daughter, I will work full time from home as an operations coordinator, I will work part time from home as an administrative coordinator, and.i will be pursuing selling real estate. oh, and I also am one of those wanna-be green mommas who sells cleaner products for your home on the side.
it hasn't all been finalized but I'm keeping all of my limbs crossed in hopes that I goes as planned. I am so excited for the chaos that is about to unfold. I'm positive that I'll hit a few bumps along the way, but holy shit am I excited.
to some of you, that probably sounds like a path to destruction. to anyone who knows me, you know that's where I excel.
I'll let you all know how it goes next week. wish me luck!
xoxo,
me
I
