So I put in my two weeks notice at work today.
No, I don't have another job lined up yet.
I've been asking myself (and so have others) why I chose to do this. For one, I hate my job. There was a point in time when I was okay working there. They made it seem like I had potential and they had plans for me, but really it was some bullshit. I have a couple of coworkers that can ruin my day just by being around me. I don't need that. I feel like I'm stuck there. I didn't go to school to be a sales associate in a department store. That's not for me. I want to do something in my field. So that's what I'm striving for.
Also, I'm ready to get a move on with my adult life. I'll be 25 this year. It's time for me and the fiance to get ourselves together. After I leave my job, I'll have time to go to Maryland and look for jobs in or near the neighborhood where we plan on moving. I have some money saved and my parents said they're behind me. After delaying it, I'm hoping this move will happen in March. If not, I'll just have to find another job here. As much as I love K., I can't wait for him forever.
So with that, here's to a happy new year and a bright future for myself and my love. This year I need to be better to myself. Like most people, I want to lose weight. I don't hate the way I look, but I know I can look much better. I have to let go of my bad habits. I also want to get back into art. I've kind of let it fall to the wayside. If I plan on working in an art-related position, I should probably actually work on my art. I got some new paints, canvases, brushes, and an easel so I have no excuse now.
So that's it. The stuff I need to work on this year:
* Move to Maryland
* New job
* New apartment
* Lose weight
* Get back to my artwork
