Today‚ March 1‚ 2011‚ was my point of no return: I quit my job. It feels great to write those four words‚ but it is also terrifying and exhilarating and scary and exciting and surreal and unbelievable and‚ in many ways‚ indescribable.

I started my period sometime after Christmas on a Sunday morning when I was in seventh grade‚ (I only know it was after Christmas because I ruined the skirt we had bought me for my Christmas outfit from Limited Too‚ I was SO MAD). I remember being in the middle of my Sunday school class and thinking that I must have peed myself on accident‚ getting up after the class was over going to the bathroom and freaking out about blood being every where.

I was around poisonous frogs‚ lizards‚ and snakes‚ but I didn’t care‚ I was way

to a point in your life when you thought that you were taking the wrong major? Growing up I thought it would be easy for me to know what I want to be in my life.
