This is really only a question I suppose a 40 something can answer and after perusing this site and reading some of the posts I whole-heartedly agree with their advice. It’s all very sound and practical and wise. None of which I usually am, and I especially wasn’t in my 20’s. I had a great career, made good Yes, this is another “Dear Diary” type post. Yes, I have become a typical gen-y female whining constantly about her love life (or lack there of). Yes, I know it is extremely annoying. Yes, I know, I am probably the reason I am still single. Okay, I have to do a blog post about my date, so I can get it off my chest, and move on with my day. After taking a major break from online dating, I decided to re-activate my OkCupid profile a few weeks ago. So last night, I met up with a fellow that I If my kids choose not to go to college, I might be more proud of them that way. If you’re shocked and appalled, bear with me here… My husband and I have been talking about the value of trade schools. We’ve been talking about them in the sense that we’d like to encourage our future kids to consider a trade school if it makes more sense. More generally, we were talking about how great it would be for the general public to stop devaluing the path to a well-paying blue collar job instead of glorifying a debt-laden education. It’s not
Full name?: Kelly Holt Position / Job title?: Founder and Editor-in-Chief of The Austin Phoenix 1. When you were a kid, what did you want to be when you grew up? Wait, which part of my childhood does this refer to exactly? Could it be the time when I wanted to be the founder of an environmental advocacy organization (to I don’t know if you are like me, but when it is actually time to eat, I can never think of anywhere to go. I like to post these restaurant reviews on Friday…just in case you need somewhere new to try this weekend. A few weeks ago, we tried Xian Sushi and Noodle, after reading a review in the local newspaper. I love noodles of any kind, and this place claims to be Austin’s “first hand pulled noodle bar”, so I definitely wanted to check it out. ADDRESS: 1801 E 51 St Bldg C 370 Austin, TX 78723 Since I have been trying to save money, I haven’t been shopping in the typical sense. However, I have been shopping in my closet. Meaning, I have been pulling things out that I haven’t worn in years, and trying to re-purpose them into new outfits. This dress is one of those things; I can’t even remember the last time I wore it.
I was pretty excited when I received an e-mail about financial columnist, Kimberly Palmer’s new book, The Economy of You: Discover Your Inner Entrepreneur and Recession-Proof Your Life. As soon as I saw it, I knew I needed to get in touch to see if she could share her wisdom with us! Her whole book is about turning your hobbies
Full name?: Ashley Lauretta Position / Job title?: Assistant Publicist at PR by the Book; Freelance writer 1. When you were a kid, what did you want to be when you grew up? Back in 1999, it was decided that I would become a copy editor at the Chicago Sun-Times – I have Josie Geller from Never Been Kissed to thank for that dream. I have always been a worrier; I can’t even remember how many times my dad has repeated this quote to me: “Worrying is like a rocking chair, it gives you something to do, but doesn’t get you anywhere.” I can’t help it! Worrying about things that never actually happen is just part of who I am. In some ways, I think worrying helps me to get things done: I worry about my clients’ deadlines, I worry about not having enough media placements, I worry about growing my business, etc. However, a lot of the time worrying is really just I am backkkkk! Okay, well technically I was always here, but I have been really unmotivated for the last few weeks. I hate the feeling of going through the motions without any excitement. Anyways, I had a pretty stellar weekend (hope you did too), and I woke up this morning with a renewed sense of enthusiasm. Since I wasn’t really feeling it, I haven’t spoken that much about all the exciting things that I am going to do in 2014. I am planning to grow my business through videos; they will mostly be how-to PR videos. I am taking the |
