From past rants I think I’ve made it clear, I do not enjoy my job at the smoothie bar. It’s a lot of stress waking up at 5:30 in the morning just to be on my feet all day running around and talking to customers. Fast food as a whole is just exhausting! Almost every day is the same and depending on the owner, raises are nearly impossible to get! It’s a thankless job that requires dealing with a lot of angry people and it just stresses me out way too much.

My other job, however, is amazing! I get to hang out with these sweet kids and just laugh and chill! The child I help has special needs and requires someone to be with her at all times! She’s a very sweet kid and we do activities to help her with her fine motor and math skills on days she doesn’t have school. She also loves walks around the neighborhood! It’s a great environment and I get to do something I actually like doing and I’m good at. I feel appreciated there! I can take some time to read, write, or even play a game while she plays on her tablet. It’s good pay and the work doesn’t drain all of my energy.

Writing has been my passion for ten years now. It’s what I’ve always loved to do! I was eleven when I decided I wanted to be an author. Coming up with new ideas and creating fun new stories for people to enjoy makes life worth living. I can spend the rest of my life just working on my writing so long as it pays the bills.
