Life

is full of funny little things, isn't it?

In further update of my life, things have changed massively. I quit both jobs, and found a new one. I have been there about three months now...proves I have been away from blogging for far too long! lol
Things are still going well with the roomies, no matter how many times we all gripe about who should have cleaned the kitchen! haha
I am in my second semester of college now and I haven't died...just yet! lol I have chosen a major and minor that I really feel confident about, though I still want to dally in the more creative side as well. Guess only time will tell.
My cousin Rebecca is due for another visit at the end of February and I could not be more excited!!
I am going to Washington, DC and Colorado Springs, CO at the end of March to see other family members...it seems sooo surreal that I get the opportunity to visit such cool places while seeing my crazy Herron family!! I cannot believe us being this spread apart could ever be such a cool thing. I hope to travel to Chicago to see more family one of these days as well.
I have an application awaiting approval for a new job....yes another new job so soon lol I am taking my time to pray and wait and investigate many job options...the new job would be with a school system, so I would have time off throughout the year, full time benefits, higher pay, and a much more rewarding job. I truly would be helping students learn and that could not be more valuable to me. This job also allows me to be at church each Sunday, visit family and friends more, get an apartment without roommates, save money, travel more, eat better, and go to the gym more often.
Speaking of the gym, I am currently addicted!! I work out about 7 hours or more a week and I LOVE IT!! I love being at the gym and working hard and taking better care of my body. This new trend is not a Resolution nor something I doing for anyone else. This new healthy outlook is for me alone and if others begin to notice, all the better!
I have a crazy sleep schedule due to my odd work hours at the current job, but I am hoping to get that under better control and to also eat better.
In case you are wondering, no, ArmyBoy and I never made it. I originally said he needs his space to make these decisions on his own, and that is precisely what is happening. I got my closure, and the baby is due any day now. He will have to make the decision on his own. I know he is not happy with her, he has made that evident to the world, but he is a big boy and he will have to learn what is real and what is made up.
I am currently content with waiting. God made it clear to me that now is not the right time, so I have to move on with my life and get going on the things that are important for me!
I no longer live in grief and sorrow. I no longer go out all the time, nor am I constantly surrounded by people. I live a more solitary life now and I am really happy with that. Not to say that I do not enjoy time with my friends, I do, but I do not feel the urgent need to get out all the time anymore. I am taking a haitus from relationships at the moment and working on focusing on my goals....speaking of goals, I guess the newest ones should be outlined now.....
--GOALS--
*All A's in all four classes this semester
*Gym minimum of 4-5 hours a week
*Loose weight and be toned and ready for the Music City Half Marathon in April
*Have a swimsuit ready body by May
*Attain new job
*Aquire more appropriate sleep routine
*Do something creative daily
*Meet new people
*March trip to see family
*Save up to move again

These are some very high goals, but I know with hard work and reliance on God, I cannot do anything! He is my strength and He enables me to be "More than a "Conqueror"!!


School is beginning to get hectic, so the OCD in me is insisting I plan and organize for the semester. That is what I shall do now, then hopefully some shut eye in the near future!!

I leave you with my quote of the day:
