Now Playing Tracks

I have to stay strong.

Graduation is tomorrow. Gotta pass the NCLEX and I will be an RN. Job stability and a job I can be proud of at the age of 22.

Mom had her biopsy done yesterday. 6 days until we should know something.

I worked a 12 today and ended it with papaw being sent to the ICU and having to go pick up Mamaw.

My first real interview is Monday and I’m so scared/nervous I won’t have the qualifications they’re looking for.

Sometimes I get tired of being the “strong one”.

I think I’m crazy

It is crazy how many private messages I get and how often I am approached by people wanting to know my “secret” or my “diet plan”. It feels good to have people tell me how inspiring I am but then again it makes me incredibly self-conscious. I don’t see what everyone else sees. I see that the numbers on the scale have went down but I physically see no difference. My self-esteem is lower now than it was 50 pounds ago. All I see is what I still need to lose and how gross I still am. I can’t wait for school to be over. I want to reach my goal so bad but I don’t know if it’s possible. I just need to keep reminding myself what I have told so many others. I have to take baby steps and one week at a time. It will take time and hard work, but can be done.

Hopefully…
