Black Girl Interrupted

Laid back, down to earth, & quirky, but also a little bit of a diva...yeah that's me. An oxymoron right? I'm a gumbo of thangs. I refuse to be pigeonholed into any categories! I'm a native Southern Californian living life in the City of Angels. I'm one of the very few Angelenos who is not into the whole Hollywood thing, but I'm still an LA chick through and through. I'm one of those people who lives in her own world. I don't do everything, I just do me.

Still On It

I'm trying to get back to blogging regularly since I got my computer back. I lost my momentum for awhile, so please bear with me as I get back in the swing of blogging.

Things have been a little crazy lately. I'm still unemployed, going on three months. During this time I freelanced for a few weeks, and interned at the DJ school. The internship is not going so well, mainly because I'm a grown ass woman with financial responsibilities, and I can't afford to be working for free no matter how "educational" the experience is. Sure, it's fun to be in the mix and be around music all day, but I need to get paid. So I've returned my focus to seeking full time work.

The good thing about being out of work for so long and trying on different hats is that I have a better sense of what I want out of a job. I learned that I don't just want a job, I want a career. I need to work in a creative environment. I still have a great love for marketing. In the past I've been quick to move on, preventing myself from exploring the opportunities available in my current field. I'm learning to not be so haste. It's up to me to breathe life into my career if I feel things are stagnant.

I'm doing my best to be optimistic during this period in my life. It's very difficult, but I refuse to let myself get down about things. If I'm doing my part, God will take care of the rest.

Peace,

BGI
