It's amazing how many things can change in one, short month.
I'm no longer unemployed (yipee!)
I'm no longer unemployed (yipee!)
For the first time I can remember, I'm in a normal and healthy relationship with a great guy.
Despite the fact I'm living in Vernal, I'm actually happy.
Let's start with the job...
I ABSOLUTELY love it!! For anyone not in the Vernal area, I'm the News Director for Channel X94. It is such a blast! I'm actually using my degree and gaining so much more experience than at the "other" station. The morning show is amazing :) My co-workers are amazing :) The only downside is getting up at 4:00 am every weekday, but that is why God invented coffee, right?
Now onto the guy...
Since I started dating, I have picked the absolute worst people for me. I've called myself the Queen of Bad Relationships for such a long time I didn't think I would ever know what a good relationship looked life if it slapped me in the face! It took a couple of months before I stopped thinking he would turn out like the rest of them and actually begin to calm down and trust him. I'm not making any predictions about what could happen. Right now I'm just enjoying the relationship :)
And finally, life in Vernal...
The last month my life has been very boring, very simple, but it's exactly what I need right now. I go to work, come home, see the boyfriend if he's not at work, then go to bed. There's no real drama. No fighting. No bs. It's great! I know it won't last forever so, again, I'm just enjoying what I have going on right now.
6 years ago when I was getting ready to graduate high school, or even 2 years ago when I was living in San Diego, if someone had told me I would be back in Vernal, working in radio, I would have told them they were insane. I've never really had my life plan mapped out, but I was always positive it would never take me back to Vernal. Vernal is the one place I never wanted to be, but it's turning out to be one of the best decisions I've made. This is definitely not the path I ever planned on taking, but I'm hoping that it will lead me somewhere amazing.
