I've initially signed my rights away to corporate America for a couple extra dollars to finally ease my debts and pay the bills and even pocket some money to save.
Although saving just means spending to start all over again.
19 years old, living paycheck by paycheck...is this what being on your own feels like?..the true quality of independency?
When you think you've paid your last bill for the month, another one comes rolling. One after another.... after another.
And I know, nothing in life is free but raw emotion. And even that has its' dues.
So, I've got my sweet little cubicle on the 4th floor of the JPMorgan Chase building on 39th South.
I've got a window seat with a pretty little view and my desk is directed right to the snow capped mountains..and its just beautiful.
It's kind of what makes me sketchy about working at a call center sitting for hours in a cubicle.
Consumed of what I never thought I would ever do......become one of the victims of Office Space.
I have an ability to interact with people and a thrill of social circumstances...
so here I am today..to work everyday 8-5 in an office, in my own cubicle, sitting in front of a computer all day and servicing people who need my help.
Have I fallen into a crowd of faceless people to be trapped into the evils of corporate America?
Hmm. How intriguing? How insightful? Growth spurt #4?
Well, it pays the bills. I guess just that, keeps a girl like me content and satisfied.....once payday comes around.
Mm. I do like my job. Don't get me wrong..it does pay the bills.
Life is good.
So off to another subject, the snow came pooring down this morning and by noon there was the sun beaming brightly melting all the snow as if it never happened. When I arrived to work, I got out of my car to walk straight on to ice and slipped and slam right unto the freezing cold pavement. In state of confusion, I laid still on the ground hoping that no one saw my ungraceful body flapped around frantically and rested to engraved myself into the ice.
"I hope no one saw what.." too late, someone did...
It was a torment...and to top it off, I actually had that grown business man laugh at me and when I caught him, he pretended to answer his phone and laugh into the speaker.
I've come to terms with myself that I will follow every lead I get in my life.
May it to be a bad hand dealt or luck falling into my plate.
Every experience is a step for a growth and a risk worth taking.
Life will remain good even at complicated times, If I say so. I'm in control.
I'm the only one who has the power to tell myself I'm having a good/bad day.
"So what is hapiness for you?"- ......"mmmm." ( I thought of him at this brief moment)
Irrelevant? No, this all came through my spacing thoughts when I laid there on that ice cold pavement.
True story.
