August 19th 2012 I always tell myself if I had more time on my hands I would blog. Seeing as with my fall session starting in just a week and my new job starting even sooner, the time I could have put into running an AWESOME blog is out the window. I love journaling though, so having an online journal is the closest thing to a blog I'll get right now. And i'm ohkay with that.
I recently changed my whole life plans. Which for me wasn't an easy or happy matter. I have been going to school for the past two years so that I could get my Mortuary science degree and become a mortician. Just this spring I changed that goal and decided to give nursing a try. The money is better, and with the economy the way it is, I have to have a stable job so that I can actually support myself. I've also decided that if nursing is not the right choice for me, I will be more than happy to go back into the field of mortuary science in a heart beat.
Thank goodness I have people who support the crazy decisions I make when it comes to my future. Normally when I journal it will be able my school, work, my family, my boyfriend, my cat, and anything else that ever comes to mind.

Hi there! yum_cupcake yum_tea
I'm going to dispense with the Morticia Addams jokes, since you've probably heard them all by now... therefore: Helloooooo, Nurse!
What was it like, making a change so far into your studies? Scary or exhilarating?

Oh just because I hear them doesn't make them old! =3
Actually my mom is a nurse, so the transition wasn't too bad. The only thing is I never wanted to be a nurse, no matter how badly she wanted me too, so I kind of feel like i'm leaving a part of me behind by taking on nursing. But right now, stability is what I need. And as much as I like to believe there is always an opening out there for morticians the sad fact is, if you don't own the mortuary you're working at, not really. And even then, its hard.

Zombri what a Trainwreck Oh just because I hear them doesn't make them old! =3

My mom was a nurse and she wanted me to be one too. I wonder if all nurse moms are like that. Good luck with your career whichever path you choose... Hmm... maybe you could go for a Coroner's Assistant (or even Coroner)... that's a semi-mix sweatdrop

It's understandable, trying to get into a field that might actually be hiring. I wouldn't have guessed that morticians are actually unstable, since death is always in business.
I know a lot of nurses. It seems like it's the career of the decade, with hospitals always hiring.
As you said, afterwards you can always go back into what you want. It hopefully won't always be bad.

August 25th 2012 I am wedding obsessed lately it feels like. All I do is watch wedding shows, look at the wedding section of pintrest, talk wedding, and so much more. I used to have an excuse to do all of that. One of my best friends was getting married next June, the key term there being was. So now I do all these things still, but my excuse is gone.
Whats funny, is growing up I used to hate the thought of me being committed to one person for the rest of my life. And its not because I wanted to be with multiple people, it because the thought of being with someone so intimately leaves me open, and leave them with the chance to take the intimacy and just s**t on it. I used to think I'd always keep my last name and I would just be content with being with the someone. And I was. Until I met Keith. Its like he came into my life and changed my way of thinking before I even had a chance to fight to keep them.
It scares me. Being so wedding obsessed. Being so close to having a man ask me to spend our lives together. And isn't that what they would become, our lives? No longer mine or his. I don't know, I'm still terrified. But I'm also more willing. I don't know what I would say if he ever asked me to marry him. I know he is the one for me, I never believed in soul mates till him. Hes even brought me closer to God. Ahh, I think I'm just scattered brain when it comes to love and my future.

I used to have an excuse to do all of that. One of my best friends was getting married next June, the key term there being was. So now I do all these things still, but my excuse is gone. I used to watch those shows now and again, but in the last few months (since I lost my job, it seems) they've been... I guess the word is I find them irritating. Especially when those control-freak Bridezillas throw tantrums over the most idiotic details. My current relationship aside, I think it's the money thing that angers me the most. It's supposed to be the happiest day of your life, you're creating a new family with the man/woman/alien of your dreams! It's not a competition! $50,000 to throw a ridiculously overdone party in Bora Bora, and make your guests spend thousands so they can attend plus demand gifts? GYAAAAHHH!!! I mean sure, if you can afford it, by all means, get married in Bora Bora. But get into debt just to one-up the CEO's secretary? Or your cousin who you never particularly liked? That makes no sense. Then again, maybe I'm just mad because it's not me in that dress...

Weddings can be loads of fun. I really enjoyed mine.
The fact of the matter is, even if you don't marry a person; you can still end up becoming a part of them to create one life instead of two separate. I believe that marriage is special and people should think before doing it; but the feelings remain throughout everything. heart
I get annoyed with Bridezillas. Most of my decorations came from my local dollar tree. sweatdrop
