Day 5 and 6 of my #Octoberbloggingchallenge


Day 5:

My five favorite movies:

1. Election (the last scene with Matthew Broderick and Reese Witherspoon. Proud Tracy Flick here.)

2. Pirates of the Caribbean, The Curse of the Black Pearl. This one is my favorite. It's a perfect Pirate movie.

3. Mean Girls. Most women can identify with this movie since they have experienced this in one way or another. The movie makes it so realistic and hits it right on the head. I wish they'd make a Mean Girls 2 with them being adults.

4. Harry Potter and the Prisoner of Azkaban. This one, the Half Blood Prince, and the final one are my favorites. I just love the story in this installment. My favorite characters are Snape, Lupin, and Sirius Black.

5. Just about any Iron Man/Marvel movie. I'm a big Marvel fan. I love almost all the characters and movies. Iron Man though is my favorite pick.


Day 6:

My pet peeves

Judging others while not knowing the whole story. This is something I hate. I see it all the time and it is cruel. Honestly, there are a lot of things in people's lives that are never talked about that can shape them in ways people will never know. As a youtuber/social media influencer, people like me experience it's regularly. It's easy to say just say, "Well you put it out there, but when you make your career off of it, it's not so easy.

Lateness. I am perpetually early to everything; typically 20 minutes. I have everything ready to go an dam usually prepared for what I need to get to. So when I have to wait, it's kind of nerve wracking. It's something I am working on and trying to relax because I know just because I am always early, not everyone else is. My husband is an example. He is typically late.

When I am watching my shows (WWE RAW or Smackdown) and my mom interrupts. Everyone in the family knows that is something you don't do. I love her dearly, but goodness gracious, sometimes I'd like a little time for me.

What are your favorite movies and your pet peeves?

Finish strong!

We're down to the last few weeks folks! I have to finish my editorial on the college admissions scandal this weekend and this month will be attending a religious service for intercultural communication. On the 18th, I will be attending the Campus Activities Board for student leadership recognition and then a gala for winning a scholarship! This has been a challenging semester with lots of illness and pain, but I can see the light. I will have three weeks off until my summer classes start. I am taking Social Media Marketing and Honors TCC Connection. My job requires all students working there to enroll in a class each semester to advance their learning. In the fall, I am taking Principles of Advertising, Honors TCC Connection, Digital Photography, and Japanese I. Wish me luck! Gabrielle

Why going back to work was the best thing I could have done

I was a stay at home wife and furmom for the better part of a decade. I enjoyed it, but it got to where I needed more. I needed challenges and interaction from other people. I went back to college at Tulsa Community College last fall and aced my class. I applied and started working at The TCC Connection in December 17th. It has been a great experience for me and I'm loving meeting new people. I love the interaction with my coworkers and the camaradie. I also enjoy being involved in campus activities and being a part of the campus activities board. But mostly, I've enjoyed being a part of a community again. I enjoy being busy and having exciting new challenges everyday. It's days like today where I am at home ill that makes me appreciate my new life. I enjoyed my old life, but I have a great new one and I couldn't be happier.

One month in...

Yesterday I hit a milestone. It has been one month since I started working at The TCC Connection. I must say, it has been a learning experience. I love having a job that I come to work excited about. So many don't have that luxury. I love that where I work is an award winning newspaper and that many of the staff have won awards. It's rewarding to think that I have an opportunity to do the same. Working at The TCC Connection affords me so many opportunities I never would have had in just any job. I was able to attend a state regents education board meeting yesterday which was an interesting experience. I never would have had that opportunity if I didn't work with the college newspaper. Working at The TCC Connection is easily the best decision I ever made in recent years and I'm looking forward to all the great opportunities ahead.
