I’ve decided to extend Wealth Week into Wealth Month — how convenient that we’ve just begun a fresh new month! Coincidentally, November is my birth month, and I definitely feel my financial story looking up! (Overwhelmingly, November is also NaNoWriMo — National Novel Writing Month — so I’ve got tons to write these days.) I’ve taken a few days off from writing because I’ve begun customer service training at a portrait photography studio. This should take place on weekends during the day (Fridays and Saturdays), with the exception of this week as my boss is shooting a wedding…
When I was a senior in high school, I was involved in each of that year’s shows (fall play, spring musical, spring play). High school was kind of a lonely time for me, so by the last year I found a lot of solace in drama club. One of the most active members of drama was a guy named Matt Ryd, who was always a fun — and funny — guy. Really good guy. After we all graduated (he was a year younger than me), I discovered that he was also a musician. He actively promoted his music, but because we…
A lot of times, it takes hitting rock bottom for someone to decide that change needs to be made in his life. This is many times the case for addicts or people with drastic lifestyle “maladies” like being completely irresponsible or unreliable, or even in the case of toxic relationships. I have a friend who says that he in a way respects people who aren’t ambitious, who aren’t hungry for improvement or who don’t push themselves to reach for their goals or dreams (or even have any to begin with). I of course responded with…
When I was very young (we’re talking, like, elementary school), I remember one of my teachers complimenting me, saying that I had “more creativity in one pinkie than [she had] in her entire body.” Well, while that doesn’t actually make any sense because every human being on Earth has the ability and propensity to be creative — and we all create our realities through the actions we take every single day — it does point out that some people are a little more in touch with the special spark of creativity within themselves. I feel that in many…
Remember what I said about grammar errors being a telltale sign of a small company? I sincerely cannot even believe this happened, but Express — the national clothing chain, one I’ve frequented since I was 12 — sent me this e-mail this morning. The critique has nothing to do with their new points/rewards program. The fact that a huge national brand has a copywriter who was either unskilled enough to not know the difference between your and you’re or was too “n00bish” to not proofread is just about unforgivable. A small…
Welcome to my new blog! I am totally new to WordPress, so I’m currently doing a lot of fiddling. As it turns out, my design ideas are not as original as I would like to think . . . every time I come up with a new idea I find it on some other bigshot’s website. Boo! Haha. Stay tuned for new updates as I figure this whole thing out. It may take a while, as I have no background in computer lingo and it’s pretty much a game of trial & error. Any suggestions, please comment below! 😊 …
