Honest Trailers

Lots of people have wasted hours of their time in YouTube looking at random videos. I myself have gone on YouTube with the intent to watch one, maybe two videos, and have ended up spending 5 hours browsing anything that looks interesting. Occasionally I find something really interesting that I subscribe to. One day I came across an Honest Trailer for a movie. What followed was hours of fun for me and then all my family and friends that I told about it.

   I'm not sure how to properly describe Honest Trailers so you will just have to check it out for yourself.

What Am I Doing Now?

Every time I see someone that knows I graduated college this past December I am asked the same question, "What are you doing next?" My reply is the same, "I don't know yet". I, along with many other 20 something recent college graduates, am unsure what I am going to do with my life. There are so many job options and yet so few. When I spend time looking for jobs I run into many problems, some of which include a great job in the wrong company or place or great companies that are not offering jobs that I can apply for. There is also the dilemma of needing experience to get a job and needing a job for the experience. All of these obstacles have gotten in my way.

Now I am being more proactive. I am not going to let my fear of the unknown get in the way of the next stage in my life. Thinking back to my new years resolutions I am going to do what I want and go after things. Being the organizer and planner that I am I created a plan. Step one of my plan is to gather information. This will include finding the places I would like to live, companies I would like to work for, and jobs I would like to or be interested in doing. Step two is to apply everywhere. This means that any company or job on the list that I gather will be applied to in any job, in any city, in any field that I can work. Step 3 is to wait. This will probably be one of the hardest steps because I don't like the suspense of waiting. I want to know. Step 4 hopefully to have multiple job offers so that I can pick whichever one I like most. Step 5 is to freak out and hopefully start my new job!

New Year's Resolution

New Year's Resolutions seem to be really popular. Growing up my friends were giving up chocolate, soda, procrastinating on homework. I never made resolutions. I knew that I would not keep them and that there wasn't really anything that I wanted to give up or do better or more on.

Now I am graduating college with no clue what I am going to do for the rest of my life and not liking most of my options so far. What I do know is that I am going to make a resolution this year. I am going to make a resolution and I am going to keep it. My resolution is to do what I want.

Doing what I want it a very broad resolution and there is a reason for that. The reason is that I want to do a lot of things. I want to do more crafts and learn how to sew. I want to learn more about design and the design software. I want to cook more. I want to paint more. I want to travel more. I want to meet more people. I want to get a job I like. I want to start my own business. I want to follow through with all of my crazy fun ideas. I want to live my life in reality and not just in my head.

For years I have planned to do all of those things and not done them because I had multiple part time jobs and a full time school schedule. Well this year I am graduating and I am using these next few months to do all the things that I possible can that I want. Hopefully I will keep up with all of this on here to improve my writing skills that I also want to work on.

Twenty years from now you will be more disappointed by the things that you didn't do than by the ones you did do. So throw off the bowlines. Sail away from the safe harbor. Catch the trade winds in your sails. Explore. Dream. Discover.- Mark Twain
