I'm writing this blog post an hour and a half away from it being my birthday! Yay me!!! So most of you know I moved to LA a few months back. And I said I'd keep you posted on my progress. Yeah...Well about that...LOL! I've been busy...for real! So let me catch you up on what's going on with me.
First I get to LA...I chill and try to adjust to my new surroundings for the first to weeks. I unpack and unwind, and just chill with the new roomie. (I'll save all my roomate horror stories for another post). After my little welcome to LA vacation, I start my job hunt! And honestly, all I can say is that I am blessed when I say that I found a job in less than 2 months of be in Los Angeles. Work is good...kinda...had some issues with my supervisor. And by issues I mean, that lady is crazy! I guess she doesn't like me, which is a big departure from my last job. My last supervisor LOVED me, and not just because she's my mother. So I try to stay as polite and professional as I can which is much harder said than done. I think God is giving me a refresher course in humility. And it's oh so hard being humble in the face of great ignorance! I have a few really cool coworkers and that makes it bearable.
My circle of friends is still rather small, consisting of one coworker, my roomate, and a friend from highschool who moved to LA a few months before I did. I don't really like alot of people in general and I find that some of the people in LA are very...LA. Meaning they're only looking out for themselves and only seem interested in you if you have something they want. And I just don't operate that way. So I keep my circle small...quality not quantity. LA is one of the most random cities I've ever been to, much less lived in. Like one minute you're overwhelmed by the sheer number of homeless people and they are everywhere, and the next minute I'm driving passed this fitness center and see Lionel Richie on the elliptical machine (true story). I couldn't make up half of the things I've seen here.
And so my latest news is that I moved into my new apartment yesterday. Loving it, and it's only a half a block up from my former residence. I'm still going to save my roomate stories for later, but I will say this. Two GROWN ASS women cannot live together and leave it at that.
I know this blog post has been a little late, but I'll try not to let so much time pass between posts. LOL...but you've heard that before.
