"First things first"

Let me introduce myself…



I'm a 26 year old, female, I work full time and I am currently trying to work on my Associate's Degree. I've been taking classes for about 6 years now. Nice, huh? Well it's hard when you grew up having to pay and work for everything you wanted out of life, out of your own pocket. I have high hopes and high dreams. Yet I always seem to wake up on the wrong side of the bed and can't quite reach the things I want out of life. I'm the type of person who shoots for the moon. That way I at least land among the stars. I'm currently going through some changes in life. I'm starting to question where I fit in, what my calling is and who is and is not supposed to be a part of the bigger or smaller pictures.

I am currently renting an apartment in a nice upscale part of the county. An apartment that I was left with by Mr. X. So I did what any typical person would do and found a room mate. Unfortunately, he is the one from hell and you will not be able to read the horrible room mate chronicles. This is because the good news. I will be closing the book on that chapter and leaving the old memories behind, back with the apartment and the Room mate. Just like Mr. X did to me. However, I will be living with a new Room mate, so there will be plenty exciting tales of the new life experience to come. I commute to the city for work. I am currently the bitch for just about everyone at the corporate office for a very big Real Estate Company. You will probably read a lot about my days in the office on here, considering that is where I spend most of my well wasted time. I love to write, I can promise you I am not good at it. My camera is my best friend. Its funny how many best friends always end up being my most love possessions. That however, is another story, for another day. I would like to think that I am just about as normal as the next person. Yet some how I still remained unconvinced. I suffer from Avoidant Personality Disorder as well as Generalized Anxiety and Panic Disorder. I've been everything from a hypochondriac to a bipolar bulimic head case. I can see myself and relate to the circumstances and life situations others are experiencing. I am still standing. Therefore, it must be the norm. I must be normal. Everyone is normal. Then again, I'm not everyone. By the way, you can call me Kali. Nice to meet you.
