I have finally decided what I want to be when I grow. I know that I am a little late with this. But, better late than never, right? I started as a business major. Realized I had to take accounting courses, and new then that a business degress wasn't for me. I moved on to Elementary Education. I love kids. I should love to teach, right? Wrong. I never liked school growing up, why... would I want to spend every day there working? I then decided it was time to dive into something creative. Graphic design it was. Well, for a semester at least. I love to create what I want, when I want. Graphic design was not for me. Took a step back from school for about 5 years. Life happened. I lost my focus and started working for a company doing sales. I HATE sales. But, I was pretty good at it. I decided to stick it out for a while because, well, "if its not broke, don't fix it.". Well, eventually, it broke. For many reasons, personal and professional, I decided that I just couldn't do it anymore. Since then, I have been in limbo. Struggling to find out where exactly I belong. Its been a pretty scary year. A ton of changes in both my professional and personal life. I can definitely say that 2013 will forever stand out as a year that really changed the direction of my life.

The one thing that has always remained a constant in my life has been my idea of love. I am a self proclaimed hopeless romantic. As far back as I can remember, I have know that love was THE most important thing in life. Love is what heals people. Love is what connects people. Love, in my opinion, is why we are here. And it wasn't until this year, well, just a few months ago, that I decided it was time to really take a deep look into what I wanted to do with the rest of my life. And one day, it hit me. I was decorating and setting up my daughters birthday party. I made about 90% of the decorations, I baked everything. I was having so much fun creating and planning her birthday. And it hit me. Why not make my passion my career? I don't want a "job". I want a career. And as soon as I admitted to myself that "Yes, I could make this happen." and "Yes, I could be amazing at it.", I knew. This is where I needed to focus my energy. I am so excited to say, that starting January, I will be going to the "New York School of Art and Design" for event and wedding planning. I am also going back to school to get my degree in Entrepreneurial Business Studies.

Where am I going with all this? I know that I still have so much to learn, and Perfectly Kismet Event Styling and Design Inspiration is going to serve as a way to inspire people with what I learn about the wedding industry. It is my hope, that brides to be will come to my page for inspiration.
