Hey guys welcome back, I just want to shine some light on Motherhood for a moment. JJ  (Justin Jr) is my now 1 and a half year old son. As he gets older, I'm starting to see he is acting more and more like me. If someone had told me that I would have a miniature me walking around, i'd totally laugh and say "yea right". Before I had him, I was selfish and stubborn granted I'm still stubborn but the selfishness had to go out the window. Being that I am the baby of the family, I never really had a chance to care for someone younger let alone a baby. When I first found out I was pregnant, I was like any other young mother, scared as hell. I think the only thing that really terrified me was the delivery part.  For the entire ten months of being pregnant, I did some real soul searching and put my selfishness aside and started really focusing on being a mother. Of course,  I googled and asked close friends and family what to do in certain situations because to me being a...

Hey guys, In my ENG102 class we had to read this article about why Arizona needs more college grads. Once I read the article, I felt more positive about my career path knowing that change is about to come. Some will say its easy to obtain an diploma but after you have that diploma its up to the individual if they want to further their education. Growing up I was told that in order to have a chance at the " American Dream"  you need an education because a typical nine to five wont cut it. I made the decision to go to college but after I found a job. Then after I earned a degree or certificate , I will quit the job and pursue my career head on. Throughout this process of becoming an LPN, I have to say I should of just went to a nursing school because in universities and community colleges it tends to take longer. So the fact that Arizona needs more college grads I understand why . Some people think just by going to school and passing a few semesters they will be fine to just ...

Hey guys, between working, taking care of your kid(s), and school, do you ever have a day where it's devoted just for you? Personally I devoted every other Friday which is what I call " Mommy Day". Being that everyday I am a mom and motherhood calls 24/8, It can be challenging but doing this helps give me the pick me up that I need. Mommy day can be me being in the house in my pj's and catching up on my shows or  treating myself to a manicure and pedicure. The reason why its every other Friday because normally when its not mommy day, I spend it with my son and we go out and enjoy each others company. Everyone should have a day or even a minute where they can collect their thoughts or take a break from the struggles of life. I find that giving myself some "Me" time, I'm more energized, positive, and I feel like I can conquer anything the next week throws at me. When I didn't save time for myself, I would stress, be depressed and feel like I wasn...

Hey guys welcome back. Have you ever told, listened or read a story and the writer or you kind of tells the story but not the whole story in detail. That is called slanted reporting, I know that I am guilty of it and so are many other people like news reporters, bloggers, and anyone else who feels the need to report a story. Slanted reporting can be biased because its only looking at the story from your point of view. It could nine times out of ten be false news because the story isn't fully reported. Sometimes when watching the news, the reporter will tell the news story based on the information that he/she just received without doing any further investigation that would be a great example of slanted reporting. At first , I honestly didn't have a clue with what slanted reporting was until my ENG102 teacher had a miniature lesson on it. I am actually guilty of doing this to my mom and friends. Like lets say I went out with friends and the night ended with a party that didn'...
