I lost my job yesterday. I can not tell you how hurt I was by this. I felt/feel betrayed. I was a loyal employee. I worked hard, was rarely late, and did my job well. They claimed that there were "performance and scheduling issues". I was so pissed off by this.
For one, I do not have performance issues. Even my co-workers thought I was a great employee. They've told me. They're all shocked by this.
Secondly, scheduling issues is a bullshit excuse. I get out of school every night at 4:45. The evening shifts don't start til 5:15 or 6. I could easily work those but I was only getting 1-2 ever since school started. If they don't want to work with students, then they shouldn't hire them.
I don't think it's fair at all. I heard they fired others but I'm not sure. I didn't do anything to deserve this and they never even spoke to me. I've never been written up or anything. It's not right but it is what it is and I'm moving on. I'm just really hurt that they would do this to me.
The worst part is that they said that I'm not a "good match". That's such bullshit. I've worked there for over a year and I'm not a good match?! Yeah. I'm so sure.

Officially a Big Sister!
That's right. I'm a Big sister now! I'm so excited.....it's not what you think though.
It's my Alpha Chi little sister, a pledge who will be a new active shortly. I'm so happy that we were paired up. I was second on her list and I was glad to pick her as my little. It's a glorious day in the Charmers family! :)

My plans....
The past few months, I have been thinking really hard about what I'm going to do with my life. I want to join the Air Force but that's not set in stone so I had to come up with alternatives that would make me happy. At first, I didn't think I would be ok doing anything else but with the help of loved ones, I came up with some pretty epic plans. See below...
Plan numero uno
Plan numero uno
- Join Air Force
- Move back to paso for a semester til I can get an apt. with Ashley down in Socal
- Apply to the Masters program
- take a year off while working at Chipotle
- Have Ashley move to Socal the semester before me and then move in with her immediately after graduation.
- Apply to the Masters program
- take a year off while working at Chipotle
- Move back to Paso indefinitely
- Get a job as a substitute teacher
- Apply for the Masters program
- Work at Chipotle
- Live at parents until I find my own place

Living in the now
I've always been the kind of person who focuses on the past, past regrets, memories, things I could have done better. It's time for a chance. It's hindering me. I can't let go of my ex fiance and it's hurting me so much. I've been able to forgive myself for the most part over how I went about things in that relationship. I still care for him a lot but we will never be. He doesn't want me and that's fine.
What matters is that I have grown. I have changed. He doesn't have to accept it or maybe he has and still doesn't want me. Maybe we're just not meant to be. That's fine. That just means there's someone better out there for me.
I'm going to focus on the one thing I do have the ability to change and that's my weight. I'm going to start working out more, especially now that my doctor gave me the green light to start running. I want to start running everyday or at least every other day. I also want to start eating healthier and eating smaller meals. I want to lose 15-20 lbs. I want to be 105 lbs. I'm 124 right now and I don't feel healthy. I feel beautiful but I don't feel healthy. I want to feel healthy.
This starts.....NOW.

To all my ghosts and gouls!
I'm shouting out a very ecstatic HAPPY OCTOBER 1ST! Halloween is only days away so you better put your thinking caps on and come up with some great costumes. Only 30 days left.
Latest update in the life of this college girl.
Hello fellow bloggers and active (or former) readers!
I have been on a hiatus because life has been oh so crazy, as usual. It's started to calm down so I'm back and better than ever. You're looking at a single gal and loving it! My seven month relationship ended in not quite a blazing glory but more like a fizzle. No big story. It just wasn't right so I moved on. Now that that's over with, we can also move on to bigger things.
Alas, I regret to inform you that my cooking endeavors ended with a screeching halt. I still can't make a pancake to save my life nor do I desire to. I'm thinking about hiring a personal chef in the near future. Stay tuned.
Hello to meeting goals though! I finally accomplished my goal of keeping a job for one WHOLE year. I know, I know. "Jessy, it's only one year. How hard can it be?" Well, let me tell you, It is very difficult but I did it. Granted, I took two months off but I have been working at Chipotle for almost 14 months so I count it.
Back to summer drama. Surgery was a pain in my butt. Took two full months to recover and then some. I even did the whole physical therapy fiasco and still waiting on the Doctor's approval to start running again. Waiting and then more waiting. It'll come one of these days.
I am also now living in a Sorority house. Look at me. I would have called you crazy if you told me a few years ago that I'd be living in the Alpha Chi house. I am not usually friends with girls but it's going pretty nicely. There's only been a few bumps in the road but no casualties....yet.
I will be posting more now as times go on. Tomorrow, I have two midterms so keep your fingers crossed for this independent woman. I need all the good lucks I can get.
