Life is Complicated.

Life is, at a glance, complicated. However, it is really a simple concept. All we have to do is to breath in and to breath out. All we must do is go about our lives as our given situations allow us. We can only let life take its path, as we try to modify it to our own likings.

Relationships are a very important part of our journey in life. Without relationships we would have an overwhelming feeling of void-ness and depression. Without relationships we would have no meaning, as every purpose in life is in some way, shape, or form inspired by relationships. Relationships are a beautiful thing, at times. We can have good relationships with friends and family members, as well as random people who are in our lives. We can also have bad relationships with the exact same people which we can have good relationships with. Our behaviors and moods often determine the way that a particular relationship will go.

In life, we have choices - many, many choices. Our choices are what determine who we are and what our perception and the perception of us by others is. Our choices, good and bad, make us who we are.

We did not decide to be born, but since we were born, we must decide how to live our lives.

Anyway, this was my random.... RANDOM blog. I'm not sure it makes sense?

Hello...

Okay, so... I got a job last Thursday. I work for a toy store in Hickory. I am not suppose to use the name of it when talking online, so I will refer to it as "The Toy Store". At The Toy Store I am simply a Sales Associate but I'm also the Backup HR (Backup human resource something or another). This is pretty neat. So I will get to work with customers in the front of the store as well as perform some other duties in the back-end! Pretty neat experience to add to my resume!

Technology

Technology, what a vast topic. If you ask many of our older generations of people currently living, they will tell you that they never expected for technology to advance as fast as it has advanced over the years. Thinking back, I can remember being a kid and thinking that an old beat up computer with one of the first Windows OS (operating system[s]) or even one with nothing more than BIOS was amazing. I can remember plugging old clunkers up in my bedroom and playing with them, trying to decode things that I had never seen before, teaching myself the basics. I can remember how amazed I was by such a simple system, and I can look back over the years since then and see how I have watched technology advance in my own life.

I can remember when CRT monitors went obsolescent and LCD monitors became the new 'fad', and then the necessity that they are now. I can think back to thinking that my 128mb flash drive was so awesome and technologically advanced! Now, a 128mb flash drive is basically useless for anything of real use. I can remember when CD's overtook tapes, and MP3 Players overtook portable CD players. I can remember when DVD's over took VHS, and recently when BlueRay and HD-DVD competed to overtake the DVD market which is still in transition (HD-DVD Failed, BlueRay succeeded more).

I am amazed by looking back over the past few years and seeing how much faster CPU's (Central Processing Units) have become. I am simply amazed by the advances in technology that I have seen over my life so far, and I am only 22 years old. I can only imagine what the rest of my life holds in store in terms of technology advancement. This should be a fun and intense ride that I am super excited for. :)

WHAT A GOOD DAY!

WAHOO! Today is already a good day. YAY! I finally bit the bullet and called the Billing Services to set something up to repay my medical expenses from last month's mishap and to my delight it went way beyond anything I was imagining it would! Praise the Lord! Wahoo! :)

Here is what I learned, I learned that they would work with me and change my minimum payment per month to something that even an unemployed person can come up with! WAHOO FOR THAT! On top of that, the lady on the phone goes "and I'll apply a 35% discount to your account making your new total $475.39"! WOW! I did not see that coming. How awesome it is to know that I just had $255.97 taken off my account! WAHOO! That made my day good. Then, I called to check on my other account that was for having my stitches removed, and YES! That bill had been made $0.00 because they take them out for free if they were the ones who put them in! That made my day double good! YAY! YAY! YAY! I'm a little excited, can you tell?

So, now, I am off to my Toys R Us interview here shortly. I'm a little nervous about it, just because it is a group interview and I'm not sure how it will go. I really, really would LOVE to have the job at Toys R Us. It would fit my personality, haha. Yeah.

WISH ME LUCK! :)
