When I was completing the about me page for my blog I noticed some of the questions didn't really portray me the way I wanted to be. Yes, I may be 21 years old but I enjoy non adult things like movies, books, and other stuff. I really love watching YouTube videos and my favorite Vloggers are Brittanyleesaunders, Dr. Pimple Popper, Alx James, and The Gabby Show. Yes I enjoyed watching Vines (love LELE PONS) and those snap chat filters (even the ever so annoying dog face) But in the whole out look of explaining myself in a few boxes I don't know if you guys really get me!
I live in a very average town in the state of Georgia, I went to a high school where everyone knew everyone and majority of the arguments were about which college foot ball team you liked (GO DAWGS) but out of all the things I could tell you about my self it's hard to limit.
At my age I have been to 14 different countries in Europe, been through 2 heartbreaks, met Pitbull and Ke$ha, endured loss and pain, never knew what the meaning of true friendship was until it is put to the test, had to turn my back on someone who only cared about themselves no matter how hard I tried to help. Never been in a fight and I have the most amazing family ever. As I said in my introduction paragraph life never was what I expected it to be. I knew it would be hard but finding out how hard it is was a shock. There is a quote by Robert Frost that I have learned to love and it goes "In three words I can sum up everything I have learned about life, It goes on." And that is true no matter how hard something knocks you down you have to get up quicker and stronger.
Being through what I have been it has given me a new out look. I have limited my friends but I still enjoy playing video games, singing, dancing, the occasional game of soccer, laughing, watching YouTube videos, and more. So no one said you had to grow up at the age of 21. They just said you have more responsibilities. If you take away anything from this know that you don't always have to be an adult all the time. Have fun. Find something in your free time like blogging or writing a story on Episode! I have 3 called Why me, Is this love, and You're my mate. I have fully enjoyed writing and I hope to continue those stories and make an awesome blog. I also how to let you guys in on my Pinterest page even though I haven't created anything I love sharing cool stories and Ideas.

Incoming Rude Customers
Okay so I know Christmas is coming soon and everyone likes the really awesome deals that are going to applied in store....BUT does that really call for so much ATTITUDE!! I think not, Yes I have only been working in retail for 1 year and I have only worked 1 black Friday but I swear that is enough. Not only are those people so rude towards us employees but they think they deserve everything free.
"Ma'am I know the price says 5.99 but is there any additional discounts?" Hmmm let me think... NO! There is no senior citizen, international, large family, I bought several items, spent 300 dollars 4 days ago discount and no matter how many times you say no they still will ask you over and over again. 😒😓 I mean we have a pretty awesome sale going on I have offered the rewards program that will help you save money yet you turned it down so how are you going to now ask me if there was any other discount? I am sorry, I'm not the president of the company I can not just make random prices for you to appease your greedy self.
Another thing, if you see that I had just folded all the shirts or pants neatly why do you feel the need to touch them and mess them up? Do you know how badly I want to punch you in the face or break your hands? I already have anxiety and OCD it took me 20 minutes to fold the top of the display why touch it?? You guy's may or may not understand this struggle but it is all too real. It's like that moment you see a big group of people with 3 old ladies 2 moms 2 dads and 6 kids enter the store and you're the only one there... you my friend are screwed. Even if you aren't the only one you will yell at the door the both of you saying keep waling keep walking until maybe just maybe they walk by. It is sad but very true. Us retail employees alike all know those kind of people and they make you want to pull your hair out. SO those who are Retail associates don't worry YOU ARE NOT ALONE, and to those who are just happy customers please consider that we would like to go home early and not have to stay all night cleaning too.
If you have any similar experiences leave them in the comments below! I would love to read about them!

Introduction
Hello whoever is out there,
I will not tell you my name but I will tell you a little bit about me. I am 21 years old, engaged, and seeking purpose in this crazy place we call life. Not only is it hard to find where you fit in, but being in this awkward phase of 21 screams HELLO!! I am here why isn't life super awesome like those movies said it would be?
I mean come on parties every night somehow making your way home and waking up the next day looking like nothing ever happened... What train station was that because obviously I missed it. Not only am I 21, planning a wedding that is supposed to outshine anyone I know and living in a 1 bedroom apartment with a retail job, I am also trying to enjoy life. I mean this is what everyone talks about, Pumps us up and then as soon as midnight strikes on your birthday you feel no different than you did the day before.
So Hello McFly, when someone older than you tells you how awesome being an adult is...RUN as fast as you can in the other direction because it sucks. Yeah living on my own, eating pizza for breakfast and wearing what I want is kinda fun but the other responsibilities that follow... not so much.
Now I am supposed to be telling you alittle bit more about my self but there is nothing interesting. I played soccer for 16 years of my life, was in all honors classes, went to college to play soccer and ended up getting a concussion that ended my career. So life has been nothing but ups and downs for me. In order to keep myself going I do one simple thing. SMILE!
But another main reason I decided to start a blog was to share my experiences with others and hear from you guys. I want to brighten someone's day and connect with people who enjoy blogging!
