Reflecting

What’s up with my images?

Anyway, I feel like a lot of career opportunities are out there and it’s all up to me to take hold of them. I’m really blessed to have made a friend who aspires to take the same route as me. TEDx, AGO, Toronto Fashion Week, PR, Faulhaber, Women in Leadership… there is so much out there that I can grasp. Just have to put my mind to it.

I don’t know how the week passed by so quickly, but it is already the weekend. In a way, it could be good… we’re nine days away from next Sunday. On the other hand, I’m just too close to midterms. I feel like I have learned… nothing. The first half of this term has been hectic and academics really haven’t been my priority. But on the OTHER hand again, I’m also very close to being in Mexico! Shit sandwich, for real!

I’m getting back on track right now but it’s been difficult.

I found another inspirational quote the other day… from Outward Bound’s twitter, naturally. Management’s goal should be to do everything in their power to help others be as successful as possible. - Anonymous

I can’t agree more with this quote. As the co-chair for DECA this year, that’s my personal goal.

We just had our first executive socialĀ - quite successful, I must add - and it was wonderful to see that everyone got along so well. I’m really pumped to work with the new execs this year and it’s always a really good feeling to be in a management position while simultaneously being a role model and friend. I’m just learning a whole lot this year from these experiences and I couldn’t be happier about it.

But it’s not all cupcakes here. That’s definitely not the case - I’ve got my own struggles that’s difficult to bring up, to discuss and admit to, I suppose.

I think I’ve learned a lot of lessons this year… not all pleasant but I know that they’re all valuable.

And then he came along just at the right time. I don’t know what we will become but I like everything that has happened so far. I enjoy the time I spend with him, I enjoy our short conversations where we laugh at and with each other 80% of the time, I enjoy the fact that we dance like we’re stupid, and I enjoy that I’m not the one nagging like his mother. Most of all, I enjoy my personal space, his need of space and I like this pace we’re going at. Sometimes I doubt why this has happened but I’ve never come up with any solid justification. Life happens and it is what it is.

I’m content but that’s not the end of it. There’s so much I still have to work on and things just never seem to get done these days.
