Weekly Highs: My boyfriend and I rented an airbnb on a New Jersey island, and this little getaway has been amazing. This quiet little town has been the perfect escape from the hectic city. I'm relaxing that I need a lot more downtime than I did in college. Being in an office, working for other people for 9-10+ hours a day really takes a toll on your body and spirit.
Weekly Lows: As I just mentioned before, being forced to stay at work for 9 hrs a day when I can easily get the work done in 4 or 5 hours is one of the biggest sources of unhappiness in my life. I've gotten to the point where I resent my job, which is crazy because I know how many people are struggling around the globe to find a job and provide for their families... but this doesn't change the fact that I'm far from freaking happy at work. (I love my coworkers but the social media aspect of my job is taking a toll on my mental wellness) At lease I'm young and can use this current job as a stepping stone to my dream career. And in the meantime, I'll use money to motivate me at work and remind myself that this expereince is making me a lot stronger.
I'd love to hear what your weekly high and low has been. Please leave a comment below and let me know! We can celebrate and conquer together.
