Do I have to be honest?
Day 10: what you think when you hear the words “be yourself”
The first gut instinct has always been to have a bout of something akin to turrets. Been striving to be someone else for a looong while now.
day 11: the worst advice you’ve ever heard, or ever been given
Hands down for me the worst advice I followed was moving in with my first long term relationship. The perverbial first "Ex". Before her, I was in College. I was working full time. I had a nice banked saving account. I had a car that wasn't breaking down on me every other week. Once I decided I was in "love" it was down hill. my life got flushed down the toilet along with my credit. It's taken a looong time to recover from that mess.
day 12: the best advice you’ve ever heard, or ever been given
Even though I hate my mindless job with a passion. . . I really couldn't have survived up here financially and mentally. A chance meeting with a future coworker at an SCA's one and only brewing night, landed me a chance at an interview, and now I'm making double if now triple what I made in AZ. I just wish I could sleep at night again. . ;) But if it hadn't been for this job, I wouldn't have survived up here. I still can't believe I dropped everyrthing I knew for 23 years and moved up here. No savings so to speak of and no job prospects, no real plan. . . . sooo never doing that again. Next time I move. . . I plan on being an EE.
