The Last One

Writing these blogs week after week has finally come to an end, and I can't say how stoked I am that it is over. While I enjoyed the POLS 100W class and writing the blogs every single week, it is about time that this experience come to an end. So the only thing left to do is write this last blog, but what do I write it on? Originally I had intended to do a "drunken princess" with this last blog, but now that I think about it I am going to pass on that idea. There is no creativity in that at all. Why would I want to copy someone's mistake? That is not a very good idea. For this last blog, I think I will just reflect on what is going on my life in general. Not a very creative idea, and it might not be that entertaining, but I'm feeling pretty reflective on this Saturday afternoon. The first thing I think I need to write about is my new job. Working as a bartender is not the easiest thing I have ever done. Sure I am pretty damn good at it, but I am unsure about my skills behind the bar. For so long I have been confident in anything I do, but when it comes to bartending I have become insecure. That is definitely something I need to work on. Next, my social life is something I need to address. Right now, there is not much of one going on. I personally think having solid relationships will do a lot for my life, but I am not doing anything about it. Looks-wise I know I can get anyone I want, but I am not puling the trigger. Adjustments needed. Finally, I need to stop being such a perfectionist. I am not happy unless everything is absolutely perfect. Whether it is school, work, or my looks, I am not satisfied unless there are no flaws. How will I become content with myself unless I back off. On the other hand, being a perfectionist makes me want to be the best at everything, which is not a bad thing in life. Ugh, I am so conflicted on this and have no idea what I am going to do.
