Its my first time, be gentle

So... this is my first attempt at this sort of thing. Honestly: I made fun of my roommate for the past four years about "blogging" her life. I guess thats the way a lot of these start.
Anyway, I finally felt the push to begin this when I wrote a list of the fifty things I wanted to do before I die. I realized that there are not only a lot of things I want to do, but a lot of things I want to work on to become the person I want to be. In addition, I'm graduating college in May. I'm graduating college IN MAY!!! That is a crazy statement, and a long time coming. I have no idea what I'm going to do. I love Marketing but in this economy, companies love sales. I want to stay in school but to get an MBA you have to have experience, which I understand and agree with but also resent. I'm sure I'll be posting on my efforts in this part of my life.
Now as far as personal change there a many things I want to work on. So far, since it is the season, I've decided to give up fast food for 40 days and have a "curse jar" for the next 40 days. I'm going to put .50 in jar everytime I curse. Ideally this will curtail my dirty mouth and make me more aware of what I'm saying as I head out into the scary depression like "real world."
I'll keep you posted on how things are going.
"You" being no one really since very few people know i'm even doing this! I told my roommate but strictly said she wasn't allowed to read it till I was ready...like i said, be gentle, its my first time.
Curse Jar $: $1.00
