Stuff and Things. Rick Grimes style.

This is not a Walking Dead post. Everytime I use "Stuff and things" I just think of Rick, and some of the ridiculous tumblr posts

Up until recently, I wasn't exactly sure which direction my life was taking. In complete honesty, I didn't know if there was going to be a life worth living in my future. When bad things happen, I have a really hard time looking at the good. Also, I feel like the bad was overshadowing the good. My boyfriend left me, I couldn't continue going to school, I hated my job, I was struggling with friends, I'm broke 99.9% of the time, I had gained some weight…. the list just kept on going.

With all of this on my plate, and tired of feeling like shit all the time, I decided to change things.

 I got a gym membership, and have been going at least four days out of the week. I changed my eating habits, I've been soda free since the beginning of August, and I only eat fast food sparingly, if at all.

I got a call about being able to graduate.

I think that made a huge chunk of my life come together.

Fast forward to right now:

1. I found an editor for my screenplays.
Thanks to the awesomeness that is twtter, I was able to ask a wonderful geeky gal if she would be interested in editing my stuff. I've been following her for a long while, and she has been super nice and very fair with her pricing. I'm excited to have my stuff one step closer to being sellable.

2. I got an email from Jeremy, the wonderful comic artist, who basically told me he wants dibs on all of my ideas. He wants to do more books, and even wants to release the book we did together as its own comic. SO STOKED.
I didn't know if I was going to have to put my comic dreams to rest, but it looks like they will still live on. Now, I just need to write.

3. For a graduation present, I purchased myself an IPad Air.  32gb, brand new and beautiful. Entirely too expensive, and I probably shouldn't have, but I feel this will be a good investment for my future. I had an IPad mini at one point, and I got it through AT&T. It was way too expensive to keep on that plan, so I returned it. This one I just bought through apple, so I can use it on the wifi and it won't make the phone bill go sky high. I should be recieving it around Christmas Eve.

4. I have a wonderful core group of friends, that have been with me and amazing the past couple of months.

Things have gotten better, and are continuing to get better.

I can't wait to see where life takes me. Which is something I didn't expect to want.

Sidenote:
I haven't been able to enjoy the Walking Dead at all this season. I haven't watched it because of my heartbreak… I'm hoping I get over it enough to watch it before it comes back from hiatus.
