I swear I wasn't drunk last night

Meganium · Jan 2, 2015

Okay that previous blog entry was so not me. (I mean, it was me but it was actually drunken me lol)

SO ANYWAYS. I said goodbye to 2014…on an emotional note (but I was also drunk…take note of that), because 2014 really brought me so many emotional ups and downs. For the most part I've had my downs.

I wrote a summary of what happened in 2014. It's lengthy. Read it if you like.

Spoiler:

I started off the year with a job at a craft store. In a week on the job I was promoted to front-end lead, and I really loved that position so much. I then also started what eventually became my most excruciating semester of all time, because I was borderline failing. I was getting pretty active on PC as well, balancing school, work, and life in general. I helped out a bit at Fan Clubs & Groups, eventually leading to get promoted to moderator in that section (& still continue to mod that section today!). It's way different than how I modded TWL. I've come to learn that it's a laid back section and I don't feel too stressed about it. At a week after I got remodded, my grandmother from mom's side of the family had passed on February 28th, which was also the day I got terminated from my front-end lead job. Down through the year, family drama has popped up everywhere and back then I had no idea how to escape it. March came around, and then April came…My BFF Buoysel and I got pretty close, with him eventually stealing my heart. We did try to be "more than friends" but we then both decided to stay as we are until we meet irl (and we are already making plans for 2015!). Days after that, I was promoted to moderator at PC's battle server. It was suddenly unexpected (I blame Sector for making me not quit lol). Family drama kept popping up, mainly from my aunt who has now moved to Argentina, I was also looking into moving away from the place I live in now because I couldn't stand the environment I was living in. I was borderline ready to pack up and leave. Until an opportunity had popped up thanks to my dad, to transfer to SHSU located in Houston, Texas. I researched thoroughly, submitted the application and the requirements in September, and got an acceptance letter in October! Then an awful accident with my youngest dog, Bentley, had happened as he was struck by a car. In about a week he was fixed up and he was miraculously recovered in a month. Despite all that awfulness, I was able to get another job at a clothing store, started my final semester taking two classes, and eventually finished in the first week of December. For the rest of the year, I was able to beat my anxiety (which had gotten worse the past few months), reactivate my social life, and came up with an "escape plan" to leave this dump I live in. To top off the year 2014, I graduated with an A.S. in Computer Information Technology.

Tl:dr, 2014 really did sucked, but I was able to survive.

I already know what I have in store for 2015. At the end of January/beginning of February, I'm planning to visit Houston for apartment searching. Quite honestly I am extremely excited for that! Then down the road, I'll be starting my journey towards my Bachelor's on March 23rd, which is the day my semester starts. I just simply cannot wait! <3 It's going to be…really emotional for me to leave my family behind, as well as the friends I made nearby and far (by far I meant in California), but it's an opportunity I cannot pass up. Aside from that, I'm planning to go see Pentatonix on March 25th, and I'm going to attend as many conventions as possible. I'm still waiting for SDCC open registration to open. *taps foot*

In terms of PC, well…just because I'm moving doesn't mean I'm leaving PC forever. My status as a staff member still remains in question because who knows how busy I will get in the future…but I still love PC to death. And if I do need to step down and focus on what I need to do in life, I will. Don't be alarmed, for that I will still be around! Right now, I am enjoying my time as much as possible, especially getting a bit more active than before. If anything happens I will let everyone know. However, sadly I did had to step down from my moderator position as Battle Server Staff, not only because I am busy to get online to moderate, but since the end of November, I had lost interest in the server in general. Therefore I cannot hold the position any longer.

Well…this became more of a "what I'm doing for the rest of the year" instead of "what I did this past month" blog. To be quite honest, December 2014 was last year and I forgot what the heck happened then. That was 365 days ago. :| err wait…I don't know. Maybe I'm still drunk.

I think this past month pretty much killed me…in a figurative manner. I never thought the Holiday Shopping season would be so stressful and so busy. Was working 5-6 days a week with 2-3 full shifts scheduled a week. Then I was promoted to shift lead for a weekend. OH RIGHT, I need to elaborate more on that…thanks for reminding me, self! OKAY SO ANYWAYS, because one of the shift leads at my workplace had quit (couldn't handle the stress), supervisor promoted me to take over. However, what really caused me to get demoted was because…yes, there was stress involved. But not only that, I didn't feel right for the position…especially when I'm leaving soon. I'm happy where I am at right now. My reputation at work would have been tarnished if I stayed. Someone else took over the position instead…problem is that she's mostly a Fitting Room operator. Guess who took over her old position then?

My butt is ready for 2015.
