Monday Update

What a lame weekend. I didn't do too well on my PT test, so now I have to adding even more running into my regiment (as if I'm not ALREADY sore from my Insanity dvds). My regiment will consist on speed intervals and long runs on the weekends, so it'll help lower my total run time.

 However, my job interview I had this morning went great! Hopefully I should hear back from them soon.I love Pittsburgh and  I am really wanting to break out of Huntington for good.

Working on Chapter 3 and 4 tonight of the book. Goal: Finish the rough draft before Bonnaroo this week.

Mediation

Today's lesson: When stressed out, a combination of exercise and meditation can work wonders.

While doing my daily workout, I was pretty irate at my current job prospects, and getting more annoyed of how terrible the job market is.

I got so stressed out that I  started getting mad at insignificant things (dishes not washed, roommate being a total slob, bills, etc). Instead of continuing to be angry, I stopped everything I was doing, took  few deep breaths, and meditated.

Surprisingly, it helps. It helped me realized that things aren't so bad. Life only throws difficult challenges toward you  so you can overcome them and achieve. Plus, no one ever achieved anything incredible without suffering many setbacks.

Thought of the day.

Progress

Wrote a few more pages last night, hopefully, I can wrap up chapter 1 tonight. I have to learn to spread out all the information instead of bogging it down into one big chapter.

In other news, still broke. Been waiting on my last paycheck for almost three weeks now, so post will be slow since the internet miiiight be out by tomorrow unless I'm blessed with my pay check between now and tomorrow.

Ugh.

Starting my writing career

Thanks tot he advice of my fraternity brother, Phil Steptoe, (who has released his own book recently) I decided to start writing again and publish my first, very own book! This a big undertaking since I never  thought about writing on this level, or even thinking people would reading my inane drivel. Well, maybe a few years ago when I read on the 10th grade level.

 But, I digress.

 The book with mostly be about dating a relationships, some comedy thrown in there, but honestly a beginner book on how to break out of the friend zone for the those who didn't have the social skills to begin with. Hopefully, I should to wrap up the rough draft of my book by the end of the week if I power through it without getting distracted by Netflix and, you know, life itself. The hardest part about this writing biz isn't even the research, it's just sitting down and writing it all and conveying it into a proper format people would understand.

With that being said, I gotta get back at it.

Back from the dead

Hello Everyone! If you haven't realized by now, this is my blog page. I started blogging again in order to increase my writing skills, vent about daily frustrations, and the catalog my journey from being a college graduate to be being a successful professional in the world. Whenever that happens haha. I'll be posting daily to dispense the daily ramblings in my life, and to offer some literary enjoyment. -Ty PS I changed the title and deleted and old post because, well, let's face it: I wasn't a good writer in the past. The last post was pretty embarrassing and reading it made me want to jump off a cliff.
