New Opportunity

Just recently I received an interview with Walmart as a support manager. I was really surprised when I got the interview but I was even more surprised when I got the job!! I've used the resume that Professor Wu revised for me and the their General Manager loved it!!! I'm really excited about this new opportunity.

Cert Exam

Recently I was able to attempt and PASS my Word exam with an 864. I was kind of nervous for it but but I knew I could pass. I advise anyone who did not pass on their first attempt to take the practice exam. A simple review could only make it easier for you.

My Motivation

Honestly, there are many of things that keep me motivated to strive for greatness. I always played sports growing up but I knew it wasn't going to take me anywhere. So instead of sports I tried to stick to academics growing up because I knew that if I had any chance of moving my mom out of L.A. it was through getting an education and moving forward with my career. Seeing my aunt be so successful gives me hope that one day I can hopefully be as successful as her and support my family the way she supports us. Failure is not an option, and I will continue to live this way until my final goal has been reached!!

My Week

This past week for me has been very hectic. From being in and out of the hospital, to playing security at my job; since coming back to Las Vegas this has been the worst week I have had to deal with. Unfortunately my girlfriend is going through a miscarriage ( which is why I've been in the hospital all week), She was about 5 to 6 weeks pregnant when we got this unfortunate news. We are staying strong and positive because if we don't then I won't be able to stay focused on what I need to do and accomplish. Have to keep pushing forward. All gas, no brakes!!!

GI Bill

Finally, my GI Bill finally became active!!! This changes everything! I'm not behind anymore in bills and I've actually caught up on a lot of things in the next couple of days. Next is finding a better paying job.

Keeping Up

This week I was able to keep up with all my work! I found it a lot easier to try to get things done either right when I get off of work or in the morning the day after. I'm extremely happy to be back in school. It's been taking me some time to get back in my groove, but I'm steadily getting back to business. In the meantime I have been applying to different jobs that pays a little more than my current, so if any has any suggestions please let me know!
