"There's just so much goddamn weight on my shoulders...wear a smile on my face but I've got a demon inside"

Readers,

Hey everyone as I write this I am giving the single Jekyll and Hyde by Five Finger Death Punch and right now it feels so fitting. In my life, not to say things have taken a sudden downward spiral. Things with the love of my life are still going beyond well (Ruth is a life saver and as are many of my friends for helping me through the stresses of life). When there is a part of me that wants to dig a deep hole and hide till the world ends then come up for any semblance of air

I have a great job that I love that is sometimes frustrating but that comes with working in retail and sometimes dealing with the general public; you have the bad apples but then you have some awesome people whom over the past two months and a half have become some great regulars. You have that job where you just clock on and can't wait until its over and that day where everyday is a new adventure where you feel included and that's exactly how this job is. I feel like I am apart of a family. Up till now I have for the most part because I know it is a better job than before and have wanted to stay mute on it. But I am working for Rc Willey and that is about the extent of it. Oh and I am working in the office so dealing hands on with customers on a daily basis from cashiering, running credit to future customer service

On the school front, recently I met with a psychologist and took a test proving that I do have an actual diagnosed Math Disability; over the years I have used this as an outlet to tell you everything and now I am continuing this process. I've struggled with math over the years of school for as long as I can recall, yes I have eventually gotten it to a point but only to a point though and had to work a hell of a lot more at it than other people. Yes I know you should never ever compare yourself to others but sometimes I think it happens naturally. When I was younger I was in and out of different rooms for help with my iep and at the time they kind of gave me a general one but nothing math specific though. So I think I have always sort of mentally beat myself up for it feeling like maybe I wasn't fucking good enough. This feels like a relief so the battle continues with my alma mater bsu. I will go down there and present the evidence (ie. the paperwork that says I have this disability). From there I am hoping I will get a different class other than the business calculus and than take that and two other classes and graduate with a bacholers in business administration

On the health front, the weight is slowly coming off but not as easy as in the past it seems. Though I am now down to 167 lbs (so I have so far lost 3 lbs so that is good). Feeling better and better about myself. Yes my fiance thinks I am sexy as hell but I am doing this for the both of us so I am healther and can live longer. Yes I have never been really overweight but at the same time I have struggled with it off and on over the years though. But as a whole I definitely like myself and my own image, I am comfortable with it

On the whole saving for a house and a wedding and everything else that is where it feels like I am not making enough or not putting enough away. There is part of me that feels like its time to run out there into the big bad world and get a second job on top of the one I have but that would be illogical. I am so damned grateful to have someone whom we're walking down this road of life together

So that covers all the bases right now. Hope things are going great for you. This sunday is the company picnic which should be a hell of a lot of fun, followed by a couple of weeks from now an escape to the cabin for a day with my love Ruth and followed by Elton John in October. Talk about what will no doubt prove to be a bundle of excitement. Well I'll catch ya on the flip side

ps: Going to try to write more often and wow this was truly one of the more introspective ones i have written in a good long while

Don't over think things (repeat)

Hey readers,  I know crazy? On my end things are good I am sitting in my usual special study place in the Micron Simplot building here on the boise state campus. Feels like a giant weights been lifted off my shoulder with that test behind me considering it feels like as of late I have been doing nothing but drilling that commercial law material into my brain. Whew let's just hope that all that studying will pay off in the form of a very solid grade for class that would rock.  Got out of my math discussion group which seems to be utterly useless because they don't actually teach you anything its just doing a worksheet with a bunch of people that don't have a single clue what is going on. Okay not everyone doesn't have a clue but still its the blind leading the blind. Than met up with my friend William which was awesome it was great catching up and shooting the shit about movies, music and the stuff during our summers that occurred.  Tonight's another BSU g...

Can I?

Readers: Hey everyone I hope all's going great in you're world's. On my end I am full of wonder and doubt which I know isn't exactly the grounds for a job well done but there you go? I am on the cusp right now of starting Math 160 and taking it during the summer. During the regular semester it annihilated me entirely. Feels like I am so close to graduating yet so far away from it all. Right now if anything felt so unobtainable it is truly now more than ever. My mind is plagued with thoughts of failing, thoughts of not graduating, thoughts of not getting a great job, thoughts of the end of a relationship in the blink of an eye. Success in school, success in a job, solid money coming in all of these different things I know will enable me to live life to its fullest. Fullest being the ability to go out there and enjoy vacations, keep this relationship going solidly with Jolene and really be happy mentally knowing that I succeeded with school. My brothers are married an...

Introspection time and a good song

Readers: Hey everyone I hope all's well on your end of things. Today I am feeling "off" and not exactly sure why that is the frustrating thing. One of those off feelings where the drive to seriously tackle anything is more or less grounded. I mean earlier got here about 8:40 and literally messed around on face book instead of getting on math or studying political science. Part of it I think is the acceptance that I've worked my ass off in business statistics and literally I think there is no way that I am going to pass it even if pigs learn to fly and all the sky for a day rains mountain dew (two impossibilities). Thank god my digital camera where I left it on the bus was still there *brushes brow* I think a big part of things is the fact that I haven't heard back from Walmart about when the interviews will be done so as many of you know the getting a job; even more so an internship because that will help me when I graduate from Boise State in the long run.
