I have never been more frustrated. The job hunt can be
mentally exhausting! They do not prepare you for that in college. It does
become incredibly hard to keep my chin up (although people tell me to at every
turn and corner). Today was a rough day…Then, I thought back to my fresh new
outlook from Sunday. I was so excited to start the week, and I had to remind
myself at the end of the day that I am right where I need to be in life. Does
any other recent graduate have this frustration? Is it just me? I truly hope
not. Otherwise, I would feel completely crazy! I am lucky to have such a great
family and boyfriend. They told me both what I wanted to hear and what I needed
to hear. Despite the fact that he is hundreds of miles away right now, the
boyfriend was very consoling. (I am totally ready for him to be home!) After allowing myself to be lazy and mope
during the day, I felt like I needed to do something. What can I do to get rid
of stress, you ask? I decided to do a workout! I love working out my stress! It
gives me this cleansing feeling!
I
decided to do a dance workout! It was incredible! This is a barre workout
(dancer workout) that you can do at home. You use a chair as the barre. It felt
great on my legs. This workout routine takes you step-by-step through the
strength exercises one might see in a dancer’s daily routine. It helps strength,
balance, and your core. I felt great afterwards…I have a confession to make
along with this wonderful workout, however. As I did this barre workout, I
watched Dance Moms! YES, friends! I love Dance Moms! I think that I am in
academia all day as an educator, so I love to relax and watch reality
television such as Dance Moms. It is definitely a guilty pleasure. I will say
this, though; I truly love to watch the girls dance. It was a pretty great
ending to a day that I thought would end badly. Visit my Pinterest to check it out!
At the
end of the day, I realized my dream is to rewarding to give up on. I love
teaching, and I have never wanted to do anything more! In my workout, I let my
bad day go, and I made the decision to keep fighting for what I want. How is that I tell my friends every day to keep their chins up because a better day is right around the corner? I am full of encouraging advice, but I was ready to give up on myself. I have always fought for what I want. I am
ready to fight again. My inspirations are the people who pushed me to achieve my
degree in education in the first place: my family, my boyfriend, and my peers.
