Opening Act

OK so I've decided to write a blog, not really sure exactly what the focus is. Its more like the smorgasbord that is my life, open for everybody to read, comment, judge..whatever.
For those who don't know I'll just give a brief rundown of who I am, and how i came to be this way.
I'm a 21 year old single mother of a lovely little boy named Jahlil. He's almost three....SO for those of you math wizards, i had Jahlil when i was 18 years old a couple months after high school graduation...........Feel free to judge..........now stop. So my life is a bit unconventional, but in a good way. I'm enrolled in college but not exactly sure for what. i just know i wont be shit without an education, I'm leaning towards nursing, after learning that social work type jobs (Sadly) aren't work the paper their printed on. I mean yeah social workers are important and all but they aren't justly compensated for what they do. Nurses on the other hand are. Yes there is more to life than money, but i never really had money, and i don't want to be Warren Buffet rich, i just want to live comfortably in a nice neighborhood, with a nice car, with a respectable school district.
That's all!

So i have to do what i have to do to accomplish these goals.
As i write these words i realize I'm currently unemployed, so to recap, I'm an unwed, unemployed African American young Mom.. did somebody say STEREOTYPE!
But this unemployment wont last for long. I have an interview tomorrow, and I'm hoping to get the job, which i probably will, because believe it or not, I know how to turn on the charm.Every job that I've interviewed for I've gotten..so there..

Uh mm... this post seems to be getting pretty wordy, so I'll call it quits for today, and check back tomorrow after i get the job SERIOUSLY.

Peace and Love
Toye
