What I Say Goes In One Ear And Out The Other

Hello beautiful people of the interweb!

It is 6:06am which is normally when i wake up, but about 20 mins ago my mom called me so i couldn't enjoy those last precious moments of sleep, so now i am awake...

Given that I'm not a "morning person" nor a "people person", while lying in bed for those last 20 mins i began thinking of all the things i dislike that happen to me.

So without further ado here it is.

1. I dislike being woken up before my alarm goes off. Once I'm up, I'm up unfortunately:(((
2. I dislike being woken up for stupid things that could of waited til later in the day.
3. I dislike the fact that everything i say people don't pay attention to. (Since this is a big one, here are some examples!)

My major is fashion marketing management, but EVERY TIME i go and say fashion marketing, the people stop listening after fashion. And all i get is them interrupting me halfway through me saying the title of my major to hear them say "oh, so you're in fashion DESIGN". (In that moment my side eye glance is SO strong!!) I have so many family members and friends asking me when I'm going to make them a garment. And i honestly don't think they understand how extremely hard designing and making clothing is. (Props to all the amazing designers out there!!) WHICH IS WHY I'M NOT IN DESIGN!

Another example is that i am trying to design this garment for a fashion show (lord help me lol) and i told my mom about it, but all she heard was "fashion show". And since i model in the ones here, she's like "oh, the show you're modeling in", but the thing is i put up pictures of my pattern pieces saying how I'm "playing designer for the next two weeks". And i am still met with stupid questions, because of them tuning out what i say!!

And this second example is basically what always happens anytime i mention a fashion show, whether I'm volunteering, being someone's assistant or dressing models, i am always asked if I'm modeling in it...

I feel like if people paid more attention to what I'm actually saying instead of trying to guess what I'm saying then maybe, i wouldn't be met with dumb questions and confusion. There are more things that i dislike, but i gotta go get in the shower, cause i gotta make an early morning donut run! Lol

Peace and love y'all, and please pay attention to one another!

Biting Off More Than I Can Chew

So i might of bitten off more than i can chew.

Sadly to say i am feeling stressed and constantly on edge, but i know that if i complete all my tasks it'll pay off in the end.

To give you a glimpse of my current struggle, here's some things i have to get done in list format.

-Ironically I'm going to a presentation that's talking about managing work, school and stress. (Waiting for the bus to go as i type)
-I'm in fashion retail, but i volunteered to design a garment for this show that's due in TWO WEEKS. Ps. I just got my models measurements yesterday... (thankfully sewing is not required, because everything is made from upsycled material ie. Garbage bags, etc)
-I'm trying to take more classes a quarter so i can graduate faster.
-I'm skipping classes to due film work. (i normally never miss class, but this will make my resume pop!)
-Trying to get a paid internship to help me go abroad.
-Trying to work on going abroad.
-I am joining more clubs and running for more officer positions.

This is just to list a few!

Wish me luck y'all, cause lord knows i need it!

Peace and love,

Oni.
