But for real, I am sooooooo stressed...esp. this week. Here's a list of my stressors.
1)I'm in my third week of travel....ughhhhhh!
2)I'm planning a program that is going nowhere and for which I have no control
3) I'm sick. I'm sure it's just from the new germs I am in contact with (i.e. staying in hotels, meeting new people, etc.)
4)My boss sucks
5)I'm becoming concerned about my job
Okay, so I was in Tallahassee earlier this week. Now, a few months ago this alum or Trustee or something sent me an email about this Tallahassee fair. So I signed up for it and sent her an email saying something like, "I signed up for the fair Ms. Perkins.I can't wait to meet you, see you there,etc." Since my boss (Director) likes to micromanage she asked me to forward or CC her the message I sent to her (so I did). Fast forward to earlier this week. This alum, trustee, or whoever she is sends an email to VP saying that she hadn't heard back from me and just wanted to know if she should help, as if she never received an email from me (Since I never got a reply from her that should I tipped me off that she didn't get it, but whatev). Perhaps, the email didn't get to her...but ultimately I played my role in this process. So Director calls me later in the week to basically saying, her words exactly, "that we were gonna get blasted by this alum." Well, like I said I did my role....sorry she didn't get the email!
But what's funny is that at the Tallahassee fair, about 10 minutes before it ended, this woman came up to me and started asking questions about the graduate program (there are only 4 graduate programs). But she was such a Beatrice about it, as if my responses her wrong. Then she, "I'll have to check on that."
Then I didn't go to one of the fairs....that's another long story that I'm sure you don't want to read....but yeah, I'm slacking!
I think it's just because I am so dissatisfied with my position at work. I want to do something that interests me. I am so ready to be in a position of leadership as well! I really want to open a shoe store.....shoes make me happy! You can never be unhappy around beautiful footwear!
So, while I've been gone so much has happened in beauty.
M.A.C. has some new collections!Check it out here at maccosmetics.com. Since the eyes are my fave feature to play up....I'm excited about the lashes!There are a few more looks so go to the website and check it out!
Well, like my #2 point states...I'm hella sick. I sound like a man and feel 80, so I'm gonna head to bed.
But you know what, feeling sick has really helped me reevaluate some things....like my job and life in general.....I really need to live life to it's fullest. I'm at a job I kinda dislike. I'm at a point in my life that I kinda dislike. I have people in my life that I kinda dislike....it's funny how a simple cold can make you think! It really is time for me do what I want, which is write (or at least open that shoe store I mentioned)! And I'm letting this job take over my life and I'm around a boss, who herself is a fashion disaster, tell me that I am "ragged"....whew! It's frustrating as all hell!
Now, I'm all fired up!
