9/7 - 9/12 IN A NUTSHELL

This week has been a crazy one.
 
I got a job! The best part is I got a job doing what I love. I am now working as a reading tutor for the American Reads Program.  My dream job is to be a Reading and Writing teacher at a middle school, so this feels like the perfect fit for my bookworm self!


We also decided to finally remodel our kitchen! I live with my parents so I shouldn't be this excited since I will be moving out soon (maybe).  My mum and I have a very similar style so we are painting the kitchen coral with white cabinets and wood countertops. I've been looking for a house for three months and still haven't found one that I like. I'm looking for a fixer upper so this remodel is great since my dad is teaching me a lot. However, we cannot use the kitchen so I haven't had tea in four days and I'm already losing it.


I also started dieting which is nothing I ever thought I would do. I have a lot of problems with my baby box and I had to be on Depo Proveria for a year to prevent my ovaries from essentially exploding. In short, I gained thirty pounds. Some of it was well needed, but it has gotten to the point were I am no longer comfortable with my body so I thought it was time to take control and cut back on the sweets. 


Lastly, the thing I am most proud of. This week I have really come to terms with who I am. Which sounds really sad but it's not. I used to be the kind of person who always needed someone else. Yes, I do still crave cuddles sometimes, but this is more about me working on, well, me. Lately I have been really happy with my personality. I do not think I am perfect by any means, but compared to who I was even just last year I feel I have come a long way. I do still have stuff to work on but I do feel very happy.

Next week I'll be posting the first post in a fall lookbook type thing. Basically, I will be posting three outfits that are perfect for fall. I am doing a casual outfit, evening wear, and a formal look. I am super excited and I hope you will enjoy it!
