Yo.
One of which is that I quit my day job! :)
...What a relief.
There were no big problems that I was trying to escape, it was just TIME to go.
I fell into the position entirely. I began working there to make a little extra holiday money, and a full time position opened up, and landed the job. I was working with friends, had a totally nice boss, and MOST of my co-workers weren't too insane {most}. Plus, I was pretty much getting paid to do what comes naturally to me after my retail management past~ which is staying extremely patient and even downright f*cking cheery when faced with customer's who can be really irrational or upset.
The trouble was, I did not have ANY urge whatsoever to grow within the company. Whether I have any 'real' talent or not, I've always seen myself as more of an artist. I've never been a cheerleader, I've never been good at any sport. I don't have any balance, and I can't even manage a cartwheel. To this very day I can't manage a bike ride without wobbling about like a dreidel. I have always been the quiet type with her nose in a book, and a pencil in her hand. More of a free-spirit, I guess? Ha~ okay, maybe just more of a nerd. The whole cubicle thing just isn't for me. Gah, okay, that sounds a bit elitist? Whatever. I honestly could not stand one more day in that office building... I don't need to paint every day, or draw flowers and crap for a living, but I do intend to further myself artistically in some way[s]. I'd just like to live a more colorful life in WHATEVER way that will be!
So far, the universe has directed me in ways that I'll never fully understand. So I leave myself completely open for the next directions of my life; we'll see where the road takes me.




Sometimes the cubicle can kill your spirit! Glad you were able to escape!
