Hello from the Real World

Why, hello. Thank you for stumbling upon my blog. Let's begin with introductions:

Hi. I'm a recent graduate with a music degree who stumbled upon a administrative/advertisement assistant job for a news paper company. My bilingual skills saved me in the job department. Post-college/Life-lesson #1: bilingual skills save ass. 

Anywho, after my fourth day at the office (consisting of four solitary individuals), I realized summer vacation is gone forever *dramatic music* I also realized that I don't have a set schedule, big/small assignments, friend-circle drama, etc. to give me those little "thrills" in life. Lesson #2: I'm in control of my life. Like, FULL control of my life. 

Looking back last year, or the year before, I was either running around in a foreign country, working a summer job, attending music work-shops, partying, or just veggie-ing out. Regardless, I knew I would always have school to return to. School: that set pattern of life, the familiar faces, the challenges... What is there not to love? Well, here I was now sitting in my cubicle watching my post-its dry out. A small voice in my head whispered, "So, this is the real world..." How much of this can I handle? 

After a pretty stressful summer of job-hunting, interviews, apartment-hunting, and moving; some old college friends visited me. These pals are still in school so they're obviously still naive about a lot of stuff. Like I was. Ha.

 I felt like an 80 year old as I lusted after their hopes and happiness that comes with being in college... I know that I want to go back to school soon. Now, if possible. 

Somewhere during their visit, they all encouraged me to start a blog about food (I am a closeted fat-ass). Tonight, my roommate encouraged me to start a blog about my life. I'll take it both as a sign. 

Tonight, I start a blog about food, thoughts, work, and whatever else I feel like. Basically my life. 

Enjoy!
