first job jitters

i start my first job tomorrow.

i've worked at my step family's golf course, 

but that doesn't really count.

it's a tanning job,

so most people are going to be like psh..

but y'all my anxiety is in full swing.

SO NERVOUS.

my brother is such a cutie-pie.

when i went to interview, i was just as nervous.

(it's the anxiety disorder)

and my sweet little brother said,

"mal, they would be dumb not to hire you.

you're the tannest person they'll ever get."

i love him.

i'm hoping my good genes and nice tan

will convince people that i know what i'm doing.

i'll give you the run down tomorrow of how it goes.

side note:

i still haven't decided upon resolutions or a bucket list..

i'll decide tomorrow and post two of them.

deal? deal.

new year resolution #1

i've still yet to decide whether i want to do "new year's resolutions"

or a bucket list for the year that will help me cross off things from my main bucket list.

however, while i am in the deciding period.

i figured i'd still share with y'all something that fits into both topics
that i plan on fulfilling this year.

on my main bucket list is to read all the works in the LDS scriptures

(book of mormon, doctrine & covenants, old testament, new testament)

this is something i truly want to accomplish.

i know that it will help me draw immensely closer to the Lord
as well as help me become much more knowledgable.

"we are counseled and urged to read the four standar works from
beginning to end. you could hardly use your time to more advantage."

- elder boyd k. packer

if one of the twelve apostles says to do it,

then you can't go wrong.

so, this is resolution/bucket list item one for this year.

luckily, my friend derrick is doing it too.

(& whit may be doing it with us?)

that way, i'm going to be accountable to stick with it.

to boost our success rate,
i made schedules that tell what to read..
FOR THE ENTIRE YEAR!

so, that we can stay on track and get finished.

if you want to join in on the fun, feel free to..

and let me know if you are,

the more to be held accountable to, the better.

:]

if you aren't mormon,
just skip the book of mormon and d&c

(unless you want to read awesome stuff! :])
and just do the new and old testaments,

or whatever floats your boat.

here's the schedules:

 

(if for some reason you can't click on those and enlarge them enough
to print them, then let me know and i can send you them via email.)

good luck if you choose to join in on the fun!

:]

hello, 2012.

once upon a time, i was that southern girl in a western world who actually wrote on her blog. 

pointless posts about nothing that i found to be too exciting; however, i somehow got almost fifty cute followers that must have found me semi-entertaining. (thanks, y'all!) yet.. life got in the way, and i abandoned the entire blog world. i'm talking like; no posting, no blog stalking, NOTHING. crazy, right?

but have no fear, i'm back in action!

it's a new year, so it's a new me.

i have a handful of resolutions that i'll share with y'all this week.

one a day for the entire week. 

yes, i have seven. 

okay.. not really,

but now i feel like i need to just so that i can post every day.

really, i'm thinking i want to do a "new year bucket list"

what do y'all think about that idea?

anyways,

i hope y'all had a great 2011

and wonderful new year's eve.

..and first day of the new year,
since i'm already sucking it up at blogging.

what're your new year's resolutions?
