Everyone's Waiting.

So almost a WEEK later, here I am.
I swore I typed that entry two days ago. I didn't realize it was last Thursday. HA.

I've taken the time to sit back, relax, and let my mind slowly release and unwind itself. It's been crazy full of all the things I had to get done that I just didn't have the time to sit and do nothing. So it's nice to take this opportunity now to do that, cause I KNOW it's not going to last very long.

My goal is to have a job within 90 days. I know it's going to take a lot of work and dedication, plus making the right networking connections, ON TOP of figuring out where to go. My goal is to get back onto the East Coast. Why? Cause I just love it more over there. Not dissing the West Coast, but I just like the East Coast better. And I have the Navy to thank for that.

I'd like to relocate to North Carolina or South Carolina, maybe a bit further north into Virginia, or even Maryland. Washington, DC wouldn't be a bad choice either. I don't wanna deal with tornadoes, and if I can avoid hurricanes, I'd love to. I could live with hurricanes (yes, I know they bring tornadoes with them sometimes, but... yeah.) as I've been through my share. I'd like to live somewhere that has snow, which would lead me a bit further North. However, I enjoy the South. So finding somewhere in the middle? Yeah, totally doable.

I've just gotta start hunting for stuff. Start looking in these places, see what pops up. Literally invade the Internet and the IT world with my resume (which I need to update, just thought about that). And above all else, not get discouraged. I don't think it'll be hard for me to not get discouraged, but I know it's going to happen. I just have to work for the best. : )

Side note, I've been going to the gym. SO far, I love it. I know that's going to change. But I love the feeling of working out, and just knowing that soon, I'll have the body I want. I just have to work for it, and KEEP working for it. And I know it won't happen overnight, but I hope with the diet change, and eventually getting back to living on my own, cooking more, that the pounds will just.... drop off.

In the meantime, I'm gonna go escape the news and play a game. Last few days, all I've heard about is the shooting at The Dark Knight Rises, and now Chick-fil-a. Everyone should just shut up, go buy a 12-count Chick'n Nuggets Meal, and go see The Dark Knight Rises and be done with it. It'll solve all problems.
You can thank me later.
