10 Things I Have Learned This Month

This hiatus from blogging has made me learn many things about myself and the person I want to be.

Here is my list:

10. I do not need to scream in arguments to get my point across. (Everyone's ears will now thank me)
9. I need to stop using guilt in trying to get my boyfriend or anyone else to do things for me. (This is unhealthy)
8. I am a GOOD person, and I will only get BETTER with age. (Like fine wine)
7. Not everyone is going to like what I write about, not everyone is going to like me. (And I really don't care, I like me, the people I care about most like me- soooo pffttt.. I don't need your validation)
6. I have a heart, I have emotions, I am emotional, and sometimes I will cry. Crying is okay, as long as it's not every single moment.
5. I notice the elephant in the room way before it even comes. I have noticed that I have been able to tell when people are uncomfortable therefore I am able to diffuse the situation and get everyone content.
4. I DO NOT NEED TO SPEND EVERY FREE WAKING MOMENT I HAVE WITH MY BOYFRIEND. We are both Aries', and it is my firm belief that we both like to over load ourselves with work, and we are both trying to do things that we love and want to do. However, we try to fit in as much time together as we can. Just because I don't see him everyday doesn't mean he doesn't think about me, or that we don't talk. We talk literally everyday, and I think we have one of the healthiest relationships out there.
3. I don't hate my job, I dislike the politics behind it and I dislike how other employees are being treated. I have spoken up, so only time will tell. We need a change.
2. Strong relationships will build, organically, and does not need to be forced.
1. No matter what, always keep smiling and letting the world in. I know CORNY, but it's true. I don't want to be a jilted person, ever so I am going to continue to roll with the punches, and not hold grudges. However, you break my trust, and I cut you. Simple.

What have you learned this month?

What Have I Been Up To This Past Month

This past month has been hectic and crazy and fun all in one.

Some highlights:
- I have started an internship for  Maison Clothing  and have 'partnered' up with a fabulous PR guru - (Eleni) who is becoming a friend and mentor all in one. Eleni Moutsias writes for What's Fabulous and owns Fabulous PR. AND I'm volunteering for fashion week... yeah it's a big deal.
- My relationship with Samantha is so much different. It seems like we are close again, and I really enjoy that. I missed her so much and I love having my sister back.
- My relationship with Jeffrey is also so much stronger. I feel like I can tell him anything and yes he might over analyze or get upset and hold a grudge, but he balances me. Trust me if it wasn't for him, I think I wouldn't be so sane. Check out his Youtube Page (that needs to be updated some more). I'm going to try to convince him, in letting me deal with his youtube and reverb nation pages exclusivly. Let's see how this works out.
- My relationship with my sisters are completely tight and bonded, I am so blessed for this, because both of them are growing up SUPER fast. I couldn't believe that my middle sister- Victoria was wearing eye liner the other day. I almost had a heart attack.
- My relationship with Carla, has gone back to what it was before. We are so close again its funny. I love talking to her, and she gives the best advice. It's funny because we have grown up so much and now it's funny what we talk about. Oh and we have decided to move out together in 2011.
- School is good, and I'm loving all the writing. I have resparked my interest in writing and the past couple of weeks have been writing about everything and anything that comes my way. So I will defiantly be updating my blog WAY more.

What have you been up to in October?
