Just Thoughts Inside The Mind of Brie.....

I can't begin to describe how much I can't wait to start my life after college. I know that student loans are going to be knocking at my door and looking for a job can be tedious work, but I'm prepared for it. My twin sister Breaune and I plan on getting an apartment together very soon after graduation and as long as I have help I will be okay. I'm not as worried or stressed about it as I usually am which is really interesting to me because usually it would be racking my brain. That doesn't go to say that other things aren't constantly on my mind or have me stressed or worried. There are a few situations that I am confused about in my life and it seems that it isn't getting any easier to figure out. One day I think I have it figured out and the next I am back clueless again. I could say just forget about it and stop stressing over the situation, but for me that is easier said than done. The good Lord knows that I have been trying everyday to relieve this tension that I have buit inside my mind. It will happen one day I just have to keep telling myself it will work out for the best. For right now I am focusing on school and the many assignments that keeps piling onto my plate for what it seems like everyday. I don't mind the busy work though, because me sitting idly by myself causes me to stress or worry or overthink. Other than that, I have had a wonderful week and this weekend should be the same. In the spirit of Halloween, below I have included a fun article from collegehumor.com about what your favorite Halloween candy says about you. Enjoy :)

Grateful

This entire week I have been feeling a bit off lately and I have no idea why. It isn't a bad off, it just feels like something is missing and I believe I know what it is. There is nothing I can do about it because it was my fault the reason for my feeling this way, happened so I guess I should live with my decisions. All I can do is pray and move forward with everything that has happened. On top of that, I had a meeting with my advisor who helped me go over the requirements that I had needed to graduate on time. It looks like everything is falling into place as it should. During Midterms I had finally figured out my time management and what I needed to do to stay on top of everything and so far it has been working wonderfully. I just pray that my life goes as planned and even though there are going to be some ups and downs, pains, sorrows, happy and joyous moments, I have realized that as long as I have God and Jesus on my side everything should go as planned. God has put amazing individuals in my life that I am thankful for everyday. These individuals have been there for me at my worst and best, been there even after they have seen the entire me and still has stayed with me.Everything that I have prayed for that is in the best interest of myself, God has provided and blessed me with and I am thankful everyday for those blessings. I am so grateful for them that sometimes I could cry, I have prayed for this for so long and I finally have friends and people in my life who are here for me. I feel like that I am at ease both spiritually, physically and emotionally which not a lot of people can say, but because of God I can say that with confidence. So below I have posted a little article that should help with feeling the same way I do. Enjoy. :)

Thinking Clearly ?....

This past week I have been trying to figure myself out....career wise and other wise. But the "otherwise" is for a different post or blog.  I have sat down and tried to figure out what I'm passionate about, what would I love spending the rest of my life doing. Family and friends keep telling me that I am still young and have plenty of time to figure it out. Truth is I am used to having a plan, so to be clueless about the future. I would honestly love to travel while doing what I enjoy in the process...I think I could make that happen. I am a Political Science major and I am taking classes that deals with both politics and the law. Now, both are okay to do for anyone who is that passionate about thoese things. I can't lie, politics and the law can be interesting at times depending on what you are studying. I do like dissecting cases or finding out the inner working of the world government at large, those are fine. Sometimes I think that I would love to become an ambassador or government official dealing with foreign affairs.  But lately, my mind has been going back to cooking and owning my own restaurant one day. It sometimes scares me that I will not do well or end up unliking the culinary field all together. All on top of the fact that actually going to culinary arts school is expensive and funding is not a guarantee. So, for now I am going to finish out my undergrad year and figure out everything as time progess. Most definitely God will be on my side while I try and choose a life career.
Wikipedia, or anything dealing with wiki for that matter isn't always appropriate for professional use, but it helps sometimes. So I have included an article for steps to finding your dream job. Enjoy :)

Time Management

These past couple of weeks has been so jam packed with everything from school, homework, social, organization, family and sickness. Sometimes I feel so overwhelmed with the amount of work that I have decided to take on this semester. In turn, it has put me in a worried state and caused me to feel ill at times. I have to find better ways to manage my time or I am going to crumble under the pressure of so much that I have to accomplish. Not that I am complaining, because I like being busy as opposed to sitting around and doing nothing at all. So this week I will learn how to properly manage my time, something that should have been done a long time ago, but oh well. I have included an article on the ten common time management mistakes. Enjoy :)
