Bad Blogger

I cant believe it has been an entire year since I have last blogged. Jake always tells me I need to take pictures more often which is probably one of the main reasons I stopped blogging, and because life has changed so much I just didnt think to stop and document. But really life is great, Jake and I have changed so much in the last year its crazy to look back and think what last summer was like. We each have new jobs and actually feel like we are starting a career, which is exciting, but also kinda intimidating.

Tonight my boss and I are attending a banquet for the Salt Lake Chamber where there are going to be over 300 successful women, to be completely honest I am freaked out. I have never been very good with girls and I am noticing more often the more events I attend people give me the look like "what is this teenager doing at an event like this" I feel like my drive and motivation is so much more advance than my looks and the only time I really get intimidated is when I have to network with these wise and advanced successful women who often look at me like a child. I need to find a way tonight to show that I may be young but I am smart and educated, and have a drive and potential to be successful that most people my age never have. One day I will be that hot shot business woman I just really need to get over the fear of how people judge my appearance. I want to be taken seriously, and I want to get a ton of business out of tonight's event.

Well I guess I will let my nerves to keep taking a toll on me. Wish me luck.

By the way hope everyone is doing well. And I will try and do better. School starts soon, 15 credits and working full time might take over my life.

Agree with Whit - yay for blogging! I was shocked when I saw your name come up that you'd updated :) You'll be successful in whatever you do. You are driven and confident - those women probably are just jealous. Let's get together soon!

i have missed you! hope you are doing well.

how did the meeting go? i know how that feels because i've been in a lot of positions professionally where people look at me like i'm too young to really know what i'm talking about. sometimes you just have to be the best of who you are and if they can't handle it, then ff them.

love you lady.
