The City

I've done something that I have wanted to do for years but my life never lead me there. There was always something that held me back, even my own insecurities in not believing in myself and being afraid of change.

When I got home from South Africa I had applied for a position at Blushing Boutique for an internship for Fashion Marketing. This was an un-paid gig as any internship in Fashion starts off with "hopes" of a job at the end of it.

After a month and a half there I was offered a position. I was ecstatic. Here I was now taking on the role of Visual Merchandising and putting together their Social Media networking. I decided I needed to get out of my Abbotsford bubble and do something for myself. My friends pushed me when needed as there were a few times I got scared but they reminded me that I was making the right decision in furthering myself.

I started off my hunt with a second job, I applied at a few places and even landed a job right away. I decided to just take it and if something better came along well then I would take that. So my next hunt was looking for a place to live. I decided on a small basement suite with another girl my age in East Vancouver. It is close to the sky train so I could easily commute into work at both jobs.
I gave my resignation into Lou's and that's when it hit me, this is finally happening.

Well then everything changed. I was called in for an interview at Coast. Coast is owned by Glowbal Group. I felt like this opportunity was a wiser decision as I am getting older and I wanted to work with people more my age group.

So I made my big move.

I am content with life as it is right now, I am happy. I think that happiest I have been in a very long time. Moving to Vancouver always nagged at my heart but I was always caught under different circumstances to not be able to just get up and leave Abbotsford. What I have realized that Megan --you are not on vacation nor are you a baller so stop spending money ;). I swear this city makes you an alcoholic. Everything revolves around Beer... which hey I don't mind but seriously... Megan you are not on vacation.
I have met and made friends with a few different people, hey I've even had a bit of heart ache thrown in there to, but everything happens for a reason and people come into your life to show you different things. Sometimes good and sometimes bad but life does move on and things change --- just like seasons.
