In whatever you do, do your best

I remember a conversation way back when, before I went off to college. I think we were talking about what college was best and why it was good to go to whatever college.  But that someone told me, “it doesn’t matter where you go, as long as you do your best and work hard there.”  I remembered that conversation in particular because it pretty much became my motto in college, in life.  I got what she meant, but it wasn’t till recently that i understood this and saw how it plays out in life.

To be honest, im confused right now.  Post college, i don’t know what I wanna do nor where the hell i’m going in life.  I feel anxious and worried.  I’ve been blessed with not having to worry about finance but my parents will cut me off next year and i’m slowly starting to feel the effects of financial burdens.  I don’t know if im doing the right things right now.

But I realize it doesn’t matter..that’s not the point.

One second leads to another.  One moment leads to another.  One experience leads to another.  It doesn’t matter what you think is a good experience or not.  it doesn’t matter if you don’t understand why a certain situation is happening in your life. good or bad.  

What really matters is, that you work hard and do your best in whatever you’re doing, because at the end of the tunnel, you look back and you can finally understand how and why your life played out the way it did.  

So im excited to be able to look back at this point, the most confused part of my life and finally understand and to be able to say i did my best.

There’s nothing like the first time

in anything in life.  I didn’t want to blog about SPOP just yet, was gonna wait till after it was all over, but I think TFO calls for one.  

This weekend I staffed my TFO (The First One) for SPOP.  I won’t go into details but despite the energy that it took, (which was pretty much every inkling in my body!!), it was just perfect.  To me, perfect doesn’t mean without failure, or without sadness, or without the downside of things.  But perfect means that in the bigger picture of life, the experience plays out perfectly in life.  So I won’t lie and say everything was easy and fun and that I was laughing all the time, but I will say whatever life lesson I learn, it was suppose to happen in its entirety.  Everything I learned this past weekend fits perfectly into my life. 

I can’t wait to staff again!


my SPOP family.
On top of my internship and summer school, this summer I was fortunate enough to be selected as a SPOP staff.  Today is TFO and I’m staffing, ready or not.  I can’t wait to meet all the freshies!! 
I am putting aside everything that’s going on.  It’s about being in the moment & giving it my all. 
because in the end..this ones for the incoming freshmen.  To their field of dreams and hopes for college life and their future.

Never take life too seriously

my boss.

So all my close friends know that I pretty much don’t have a summer.  I’ve taken on an internship for the summer (maybe it’ll roll over to fall) at this health wellness facility called Vitalae Wellness.  Basically our job right now is to promote and implement a wellness program at our corporate client.  I’ve been assisting with all the corporate wellness promotion/admin/making sure things run smoothly, etc.. learning alot, It’s been a really good experience so far, I actually am experiencing the professional field.  It’s crazy coming from sweats all day, to professional clothes all day status.  Anyway, my boss is such an interesting person.  She’s done soo much in her life and have accomplished so many goals. She works waay to many hours in a day and in a week, but she’s so happy.  Even though she has so much on her plate, she’s not stressed.  well..not the bad kinda stress that makes you unhappy.  And she told us, the reason why she is happy, motivated and driven despite the work she has to do, is because she’s never taken life too seriously.  I thought it was interesting and also kinda slapped me in the face haha.

Sometimes you just gotta let go, let go of the control you THINK you have, and let life takes its course.

Ready, Set, Go

So I made a list of things I wanted to accomplish in the near future and some long term goals.  I realized my list was kinda all over the place, but the first thing I put down was to start a blog.

So here I am.

yay!

Let’s see where this goes! care to join?
