Future Projects Freestyle Story
            23 year old Mya Red is thrilled at the successful day she has had at work working at the Navy Lodge near the Norfolk Virginia naval base. Mya has had a fun day because after she got off work around 3 both her and close 43 year old friend named Bridget Douglas went together to a Cher concert.  Mya Red hops in the shower as the song What I Like About You by the Romantics comes on.  Mya Red thinks that it is a good thing that it is just her that lives in her one bedroom apartment that is less than 3 miles from the Norfolk Virginia Naval Base. This is because it is 1130 pm and she knows that her husband 35 year old Avery Red is about to go to drive home after working a late shift at Carmax in Virgnia Beach Virginia and he tells her that two of his friends from the Washington D.C. area want to come by next week and visit. M
Mya Red is guilty to have jumped out of the shower, thrown her bathrobe on and simply sat on the edge of her bed as her husband called in order to avoid keeping him waiting. Besides she has 2  seven year old twins that are about to be dropped off at her apartment soon as one of her sisters took them to the movies as her two twin boys Brett and Kai are close to their cousins. Mya Red was never close to any of her cousins growing up and she was determined to avoid repeating the mistake with her own twins and nieces and nephews. As soon as Mya Red, gets done with talking to Avery she notices that she is now sitting in a bright white and peach table while some type of graduation party is taking place.
            Mya Red knew that she wasn’t in Virginia but figured out that she must have went to sleep by accident as some of the guests congregating at this party looked like a who’s who from either the San Diego Comic Con or various humans and other type of beings at one of the bar settings in a Star Wars film. Just then, a woman who told Mya Red to call her Gail and resembling Charlize Theron with a platinum bob hairstyle admitted to Mya Red that she summoned her to this party as an answer to her prayers for greater wisdom and ideas for how she can move closer to living in alignment with her life purpose destiny.  Gail tugs at Mya Red’s shoulder to focus because Mya Red was momentarily distracted by the song Love Rollercoaster by Red Hot Chili Peppers being fashioned into a gigantic Roller Coaster  building that she somehow intuitively knew was 8 miles high and 3 miles long, a pink and peach building. Gail telepathically reads Mya Red’s thoughts long enough to briefly tell her that she is in the year 3475 in an astral realm of a world that is frequented by both living writers and visited by writers who already passed on as the building she is looking at offers classes to visitors in both creative and fantasy writing with fiction and mystical slants.
            Gail goes to explain to Mya I want to tell you more but your main male spirit guide who also loves your husband Avery gently advised me to avoid telling you on this visit and to encourage you to make the time to travel there on your own in the future. 5 seconds later, Gail lays some cards on the party table for Mya that she tells her to pick up from the table. Mya does as requested as she intuitively senses that Gail is only trying to help as right as she picks up the gold and white cards they fly up in the air hovering a foot above the table long enough for Mya to read the following;
Moderate internet exposure
Intent around making up mind where to live
Write andor communicate with celestial ally team daily and celestial/heavenly higher self
Regardless of external perceptions, looking into what you did right in the past to bring it into the future, this is understood by some of the most successful people who have now passed on. However, this statement must be emphasized because a multitude of well meaning spiritual gurus try to preach the opposite while overlooking that there are a wide number of people on earth who unintentionally ran away from their career futures and have to look back at the past in order to make peace with and become a part of that destiny again even in another form.
It is actually fine to pray to the universe for helping in seeking out destiny/life purpose as well as to grow wisdom because each person, regardless of their fame or obscurity has a wellspring of knowledge and karmic destiny to draw from with enough persistence to ask heaven for help and to use discernment when reaching out to the most benevolent and well intended people who would provide help, advice, andor guidance towards these goals.
            9 seconds later, Mya Red feels a gentle tug on her shoulder as her husband Avery came home and is playfully wrestling her. Avery explains that it is ok if she went to sleep for a little bit because this gave him time to talk to some of his friends on the phone and tuck their twins into bed.

The following are article and resources that I was thinking about using but decided to intuitively avoid using for today’s freestyle script and story and save for potential andor future references
I preface this comment by admitting from the get-go that my comment may be biased as I am a survivor of being raped as a child around the time I was around 5 or 6 years old. However, the difference was that my biological mother was the one who actually gave me to the rapist knowing what was about to happen. I only realized that this was not my fault until after my late adoptive mother took me in around the time I was 7 years old and helped me see that this was not normal for mothers to do. As a result, it will be nearly impossible for me to be an unbiased juror if they were making selections for child rape cases.  However, I am glad that the North Carolina mom alerted authorities right away to shield her daughter from further harm. If Brentley Jason Breyers is confirmed guilty then he needs to stay behind bars for life at a minimum without any chance of parole. A man that would harm a seven year old like that would most likely harm another child if given the chance during his current lifetime and so he must be kept away from any further children if he somehow slipped through the cracks and was paroled.  I do believe that some of the potential jury people that preside on Brently Jason Breyers case needs to be biological parents who care for their kids andor adoptive parents, at least part of the jury pool in order to increase the chances that Breyers gets a punishment that is fit for the violence that  he inflicted on a seven year old child’s soul. That seven year old girl will never be the same even if she gets the help she needs and if Breyers is found to have raped this girl then he must definitely be held accountable for what he did.

As a woman who has enjoyed living in the Washington D.C. area since May 2010 along with my husband who also likes living in the Washington D.C. area (since June 2010) I have turned to multiple Washington D.C. area media sources such as Washingtonian magazine, Washington Post etc. I have been an online digital subscriber to the Washington Post (Sunday delivery edition) and I intend to reactive my subscription by this September or sooner. I notice that the Washington Post is popular to the point where I have an online digital subscription to the Virginian Pilot and they have a built in online digital option of subscribing to the Washington Post for certain subscribers of the Virginian Pilot. My point, even with President Donald Trump’s influence and fame, his actually referencing the Washington Post, whether positive or negative, actually benefits the Washington Post in further popularity. I reluctantly admit this yet even I can see it is partially because of Trump referencing them frequently from what is mentioned in this article. My point; as someone who has subscribed to the Washington Post before there are actually a multitude of informative articles that the Washington Post puts out and I have looked at articles from both Washington Post and the Washington Times to broaden my understanding of how various situations are viewed politically. My point-obviously Trump is allowed to say whatever he wants about Jeff Bezos of Amazon and Washington Post. However, Trump’s mere referencing of them whether positive or negative actually helps Washington Post’s popularity (coming from a woman who keeps an open to looking at both articles from the Washington Post, Washington Times, having an active online digital subscription of the Los Angeles Times, and having an online active digital subscription of the Virginian Pilot) .

Donald Trump thinks Jeff Bezos is his biggest threat


https://finance.yahoo.com/news/donald-trump-thinks-amazon-ceo-jeff-bezos-biggest-threat-163316905.html
I have purchased magazines from Forbes before and there was a time in my life where I use to visit the Forbes website multiple times and so I am coming from a place of seeing the good in Forbes magazine when I comment on this yet I must say this; Forbes put out an informative list of jobs as I see even jobs such as nuclear power reactors and air traffic controllers have employment equivalents in the U.S. Navy. However, this is partially my point; Forbes has a list of good jobs it is just that these also look like jobs that may require some career experience. No, I did not work in the job fields available on the enlisted side in the navy that are equivalent to the nuclear power reactors as even I have some awareness of where I would be over-reaching. I chose to cross over to naval supply by June 2002 and passed up an opportunity to work in the intelligence field when an E-6 Intelligence Specialist came from the heart around 2001 to try to get me to consider a career field as an Intelligence Specialist, a decision that has cost me even to this day (not taking the E-6 Intelligence Specialist’s offer to mentor me towards working as an intelligence specialist) as obtaining supply jobs even in the Washington D.C. area are highly competitive. I have tried to be down to earth by simply trying to increase my income by aiming to stay at my current job while trying to pick up a related second job. However, the hiring manager affiliated with the related job interview for me to try for a second job seemed naturally conflicted about choosing me (I could see it on his face) when he sensed that I was hesitant to voluntarily leave my current job for his job and instead have his job as a second job if he selected me. In his defense, he was polite to me and willing to give someone a chance even if their experience was limited but I could sense that he wants either someone who is willing to voluntarily leave their job for his job andor someone who is looking for a job and is willing to step into that job with complete flexibility. My point-even when I listened to others by setting my sights on a practical level as advised by others I either run into an employer who is open-minded in giving someone the job just not as a second job andor an employer who prefers someone with either the experience andor prestigious career success. As a result, short of me trying to get a job overseas, I feel like the only other options are for me to look into further schooling and volunteering to make myself more competitive. In Forbes magazine defense I notice that they are doing their best to write articles that are tailored to both hiring managers and separate articles for job seekers. However, media articles are still scarce on job search catch 22’s-trying to get the jobs available  that are at least open to job seekers without the experience and education but require the prestige of career success andor willingness to be discreet about side hustle andor second job aspirations andor jobs where you do not have to hide aspirations for doing a legal side hustle andor second job but require experience. I realize that I only have myself to blame for this catch 22 that I unintentionally created as no one held a gun to my head and forced me to voluntarily leave a financially comfortable career in the U.S. Navy back in 2009 making at least 3 grand a month after taxes for career uncertainty. Additionally, I keep getting intuitive and logical promptings to consider applying to supply jobs in overseas federal job billets in either Africa, Europe, Asia etc. but I feel conflicted about following through with relocating overseas deep down partially because I see how content my husband is and I’m already aware from previous experience that a long distance marriage for greater financial security has both potential financial payoffs but also challenges to my marriage even with me being voluntarily child-free (I have nothing against parents or kids I am just describing my career profile that justifies at least my ability to relocate overseas if I ever took concrete action to do so). My point; Forbes has done both a well-meaning and good job with these article of jobs that do not require a 4 year college degree but even a woman like me knows that for most of these jobs the hiring manager will only give you the time of the day if your experience at least somewhat matches these jobs.  I reluctantly accept that I might die before completely paying off my student loans but I am more at peace and accepting of that reality now as compared to not being as accepting of that potential reality back in May 17, 2017. However, this does not stop me from still trying to do what I have to career wise to repay my student loans by 2035 or sooner (which is why this article reminds me why I must comb through the volunteer opportunity kindlebook that I purchased through Amazon within the next 26 hours or less of posting this comment).

Even as a mixed race woman, it is hard for me to comment on articles such as this because there is always a risk that you might offend andor hurt someone even if you did not intend to do so. Additionally, I have four family members who have children with at least partial African American ancestry or greater and so I want to be especially careful about what I say in case any of them look up andor see what I write online when they are older. However, I must share this; from the time I was 7 until I was 19 years old from the part of 1988 to June 2000 (with the exception of part of 1997 and part of 1998) I lived in Calumet City Illinois which is an area that was over 85 percent African American and many of the Caucasian women that I saw sporting what would be considered “ethnic” hairstyles were doing so from what I can tell as a show of respect andor admiration of African American culture. What this has to do with the article of Ice T’s wife Coco is that I truly think that she probably admires the way she has seen some women of color wear braids and I think that Coco was probably just rocking this style as a show of respect and admiration to Black female culture.

I admit that I feel blessed to have seen this article in my facebook feed and I'm starting to do a related plan out of necessity because it helps both my husband and I to stretch our food supply without feeling deprived and it helps us save more money and time. I am more or less keeping this success story article as a form of support and positive reinforcement.

I so relate to what this writer says as my husband Rusty and I have a close marriage (tomorrow will mark us being married for 13.5 years) but we do not have anything against parents or kids. Additionally, I have been blessed to have a husband who loves me and cares for me regardless of how much money I make and even after my physical appearance changed (I say this because I admit that I look different from the 119 pounds I was when I first met him in 2002). It is just that the writer put her thoughts on marriage and being questioned about kids in a compassionate and open-minded way. I especially like the part where the writer admits that she has dreams and goals like everyone else and sees the good in both parents and kids but understands that adopting andor having kids is not a decision to take lightly.

I use to own a mazda3 car from part of 2007 and part of 2008 during my time in the navy but I voluntarily gave it to Carmax up for practical reasons. Obviously, I miss having a car and I intend to repurchase another car by December 2020 or sooner. My point, even if a certain career choice is going to raise your car insurance I feel that it is better to go ahead and take a chance on a certain career, regardless of what other well meaning people may say, if you logically andor intuitively see that the career choice would more than allow the ease in owning a car as well as paying off in different/other multiple positive ways even if you have higher insurance in the meanwhile. I admit that I am a little biased because if I knew then (in 2008 when I voluntarily gave up the mazda3 to a Carmax in Virginia Beach Virginia)what I know now I would have kept my mazda3 car as the car had good gas mileage and allowed both my husband and I multiple freedoms that even excellent public transportation cannot compare to.

I’m neither a fan or a hater of Sean Spicer, yet even I knew that he had a tough job with trying to help President Donald Trump with the multiple controversies that were coming up. Additionally, when I spotted a yahoo story online less than 12 hours ago about Anthony Scaramucci being selected as White House Director I actually wondered and commented about President Donald Trump going with an outside selection instead of an internal pick. Sean Spicer is a public affairs officer affiliated with the United States Navy so he most likely is going to have an easy time finding another public relations/communications related job.

I admit to having a concern to consistently paying at least the minimum andor at least a nominal amount agreed with my student loan providers (affiliated with Sallie Mae and Great Lakes) on my student loans by the end of this year or sooner. However, my higher priority, regardless of how I may be perceived for admitting this is to build up at least a two months or more of the equivalent of my after tax paychecks by December 2017 or sooner.

All You Need To Know About USS Gerald Ford

I’m neither a fan or hater of Mindy Kaling as I understand that she is very accomplished career wise and money wise but I wanted to comment because I seem to be in the minority if I say this but I do not believe that she slept around prior to becoming pregnant. I understand that it is not my place to judge even if she did but something tells me that Mindy Kaling is actually very understandably selective about who she romantically becomes involved with/sexually intimate with. I believe, and once again I prefer to avoid judging, that Mindy Kaling does know who the father of her baby is but is probably keeping it under wraps because at the time they got together things were only meant to be casual (maybe a friends with benefits situation andor a romantic union with little expectation of marriage). The father of her baby may or may not have been involved with someone else at the time of the union-once again I choose not to judge because Mindy Kaling’s career wealth and financial success puts her in a different world of romantic temptation that many people may find unusual andor unheard of. Mindy Kaling, prior to her union, probably could not get pregnant for years even when going without birth control and so it might have still took her by surprise even if she secretly planned it as it is common knowledge that there are many wealthy, successful, and accomplished couples and/or single people who try to naturally conceive children for many years without success.  However, Mindy Kaling could be naturally keeping it secret because maybe the father of her child, regardless of his relationship status, is a wealthy andor powerful man (career or money-wise) and Kaling wants to keep things discreet and under wraps more to protect both their child andor maybe, even if they are no longer romantically together, she wants to create an environment where it is safe  to see his child away from the glaring public eye (that would naturally come with Mindy Kaling’s fame and fortune as she is a high profile celebrity). Another article has Mindy Kaling living in a nice house in Los Angeles California and so at least on the positive side, regardless of who the father is, both Mindy Kaling and her child are most likely always going to have some semblance of financial security.

This is another article where I am both intuitively and logically aware that I may be in the minority for saying this but I do feel that Katy Perry is actually telling the truth when it comes to her saying that she actually wants the best for Taylor Swift. I do believe that it can be possible for professional andor personal rivals andor critics of each other (whether men or woman)to also secretly see at least some positive facets in what the other person is doing. Of course,  it is common knowledge that over 90 percent of the time, a man or woman’s rival is not going to publicly admit if they secretly admire any aspect of what their enemy andor rival is doing. However, many people who have listened to music from both Katy Perry and Taylor Swift can intuitively andor rationally sense that there is a secret interest in each other’s work even if both women may understandably not always want to publicly admit it as such. Obviously, I feel that both Taylor Swift and Katy Perry put out some creative and fun songs. This article proves that Katy Perry is trying to publicly put out an olive branch and  maybe does mean it when she said that she never meant to continually hurt Taylor Swift and now wants to make amends. Obviously, only time is going to tell if Katy Perry and Taylor Swift reunite as friends.

My husband Rusty and I use to live in Norfolk Virginia from part of 2008 until part of 2009 (as I was stationed on the USS Eisenhower) so naturally this article on Naval Station Norfolk’s First 100 Years by Courtney Mabeus is going to catch my attention. I remember being on the Eisenhower and working alongside multiple civilian workers who had various jobs dealing with the Eisenhower (even during moments of various people hauling food stores onto the ship). During my time living in Norfolk Virginia, I remember the base being huge and the city itself expanding to accommodate a growing population. I am sure that this is still the case today ( of the city itself expanding and probably the Norfolk Naval Base as well).

First off, I happen to be a person who just wants to be the best in her current job so I admit that I do not share Bevan’s goal to have her boss’s job. Additionally, I am blessed to work for some fair managers and a fair boss at my job yet I still would not want to do any of their jobs anytime soon for practical concerns that I’m aware that I have much more to learn and improve upon as a non-manager employee at the job I currently have. With that out of the way, I am still glad that Forbes and Liz Ryan shared this article with me as my husband is dedicated to his current job and easily sees himself as a manager at his current job one day so I can at least refer to this article for him through Bevan’s case study. However, I do not always agree with everything Liz Ryan says  in some of her articles. Yet, even I have to admit that Liz Ryan has it right and is only trying to help when she tells Bevan that she needs to wait a while longer before having that discussion with Charlize. Liz Ryan knows what she is saying when she advises Bevan to get to know Charlize more before even coming close to discussing her career ambitions as a boss. For starters, I know from experience that it is human nature for even other females to only help out other females in the workplace if they could see that person as friendship material. I prefer to avoid getting into the debate of this but what this has to do with Bevan’s interest is that she needs to make sure and for certain that as Liz Ryan puts it, Charlize would feel encouraged to train her as a backup boss. Then there are the logistics of what do the other managers think of Bevan in addition to Charlize. I know that this is an obvious question yet it is obvious even to a woman like me that Bevan may want to search herself and make for certain she still wants to be boss after getting to know Charlize andor any other managers and bosses at her job that are on the same level professional wise Charlize andor higher. As I say again, Liz Ryan is only trying to help Bevan in this situation. Kudos to Bevan for succeeding in her job yet I concur with Ryan that she needs more time to get to know Charlize and other managers (at least 6 more months to a year at a minimum) before throwing her professional hat in the ring to be invited to her professional table of preference as a boss.

a great financial comeback story

from the pop sugar website  I would not dare judge Lena Headey for her personal life, but I do believe that I can turn around my financial life and still
stay married to my amazing husband Rusty. Her positive and inspirational comeback story gives me hope that the 2020s can be the decade where I live much financially
wealthier and successful-career and money wise.

I have to admit that Eva Longoria looks extremely and highly happy/cheerful in these photos. The one picture of her kissing her husband shows how much in love with him she is and she looks radiant in her photos. From my viewpoint, she proves that a woman can still look good in her 40s, an inspiration to a woman like me in her 30s.

I can only speak for myself but the caveat with this list is that it may not take into account people with student loans who intend on decrease what they owe in the long-term but are just working out consistent income challenges in the short term. Additionally, this list may not obviously take into account both if the men and women of these student loans have been out of school for at least 10 years or if this amount is just under five years. I say this because even with both my challenges and blessings, I do believe and intend to increase my income by the year 2023 or sooner. However, far too often, it is human nature for many people to just look at how someone is doing financially when it has only been less than five years since they graduated college when there is a highly probable chance that the same person or people that they are looking at who make a certain income level are also going to most likely at least double andor triple their income within the next 10 years or less of getting their first bachelor’s degree that accompanies their student loans. It is challenging for me to even share what I just did because I am aware that friends andor family members of student loan employees/collectors are going to judge someone like me and I’m emotionally prepared for it. My point; more indepth studies need to be done on the percentage of student holders who are carrying their balances until they are able to raise their income levels to a level that would allow them to repay back their student loans around 15 years or less. After all, there are some people who do not pay the minimums on their student loans not because they don’t want to but rather for some people more time is needed to work out a situation where they can be selected andor qualify for certain career paths that help facilitate adequate student loan repayment to at least meet the minimum demands of Sallie Mae (private student loans) andor federal student loans affiliated with the Department of Education.

Trump expected to name Wall Street financier Anthony Scaramucci as White House communications director


https://www.yahoo.com/gma/trump-expected-name-wall-street-financier-anthony-scaramucci-030734049--abc-news-topstories.html
I'm actually surprised by how soon Anthony Scaramucci is picked so soon after Mike Dubke left his post and I'm also surprised that Donald Trump did not do an internal pick for this position of new White House Communications Director. Maybe Scaramucci will surprise yet something makes me wonder why Donald Trump did not hire from within for this position.

I’m willing to bet that Trump Legal Team spokeman Mark Corallo knows more a great deal about what is going to happen behind the scenes that maybe even President Donald Trump himself. Mark Corallo is probably voluntarily and obviously leaving while he can in order to leave on the best terms.

Fortunately, the articles that I am seeing from Cheat Sheet from my yahoo newsfeed are getting better and more informative to my personal situation. I respectfully disagree with some of these principles as I personally know a kind person from my job who is naturally thin and she at least admitted to me that she pretty much eat what she wants. However, she does wisely moderate her portion sizes even when she eats what she wants, something that has helped me with my weight guilt-free that I am glad she generously shared with me. Also, I know that Carick means well about the number of meals to eat in a day, but my husband has been the main breadwinner in the family for quite a while since late 2015. I feel blessed that my husband loves me even at my current weight and he loves me regardless of what other people think of me and the amount of money that I bring in. This is a big deal to an American born woman like me because I was only 119 pounds when we first met and I'm aware that I'm lucky that my husband still sees the beauty in me despite my physical appearance obviously changing with my weight. It is just that moderating how much I eat rather than concerning myself with how many meals to eat in the day has helped me be more resourceful and resilient when it has been necessary to live on just my husband's income. My point; more information is needed for men and women who eat just one or two meals per day more for practical reasons even if that is different from the usual six meals espoused by many popular diets that are well-meaning but overlook that some people have to learn to get by on less food in order to have a better chance at saving more money and padding a savings account. However, I am grateful that Evie Carick emphasized about putting yourself first, especially putting the exercise and food planning earlier in the day, this tip alone is something that has been popping in my intuition and logic mind more frequently and I feel blessed to see it confirmed with this article. Overall, despite some of my misgivings Evie Carick did write both an informative and motivational weight loss article for me to keep in mind.

6 Secrets From People Who Are Effortlessly Skinny

6 Secrets From People Who Are Effortlessly Skinny


I reluctantly confess that drinking more water is an obvious habit I need to get more consistent with, and I am glad that this writer Maria Del Russo of Refinery 29 shared her candid story about how she stuck with increasing her water intake even with dealing with temptation such as when she went to a party with a friend who works in public relations where wine was free flowing.I fortunately have both time and privacy to be more consistent and frequent with my water intake but my challenge is encouraging myself to be more consistent with liking the taste of tap water and lemon juice frequently enough to drink the minimum of 80-90 ounces minimum of water that my body needs. However, after reading this article I am inspired to increase my water intake to aim for at least 85-90 ounces of water or more each day even if I have to have some fruit cups andor fruit cans nearby in order to make the tap water and lemon juice combo more palatable.

I do believe that a person could always go back and get a completely different second college degree if they realize that their first one could have been more marketable. I know that Usatoday means well with their advice and I am going to keep this article as a reminder to myself on why I need to go forward with pursuing a second degree online by September 2018. A couple of things that I learned the hard way from my first bachelor's degree that I wish someone would have told me but I share with someone who wants to get their first degree but benefit the easy way with what I had to learn the hard way; I successfully finished my first bachelor's degree within 3 years and took a heavy courseload to accomplish this, even during the summertime. However, what I had to learn the hard way, most employers do not care how fast you complete your degree, they care more about your work experience. The jobs that I have had so far are indirectly because of my military andor civilian work experience and not because of how fast I finished my degree. If possible, allow yourself to work full-time and take classes part-time in order to secure the college degree you want but still maintain job experience. If a job opportunity or internship is hard to come by for yourself then do what you legally have to in order to secure some volunteer experience to build andor strengthen your work history. By no means do I claim to know everything about this and I am still learning more as I learn more information but another piece of information/data that I wish someone would have shared with me; look at various military websites such as navy.com, airforce.com, army.com etc. and hot jobs on government job websites such as usajobs.gov. Why you may ask; I just found out less than three months ago that the major that I want to study for a second bachelor's degree online while working full-time by autumn 2018 is in demand in both the military sectors and the U.S. government job sector. I even noticed that colleges such as Georgetown University will offer tuition discounts to students enrolled in certain college majors and my dream major was on that list but it is mainly available to federal government workers and not private sector employees (from what I have seen of the list). However, the point I am making, from my experience of being in the military and something I wish that I would have noticed years ago is that many of the jobs that an enlisted andor officer can obtain in the military are also hot college degrees. I hope this helps many who are open-minded in looking at my comment even if this only happens weeks down the road, but I felt it necessary to share some things to others for their benefit to glean from the easy way compared to what I finally figured out the challenging way.
Want a job when you graduate? Choose these majors


What I do my best to contribute with my efforts are far more valuable than I realize in all areas of my life both present and future.

I speak, communicate, and write  about various news articles that I see online and follow both my intuition and logic when discussing my thoughts around these areas regardless of how I am perceived and judged for doing so as I am following one of my passions and destiny. I take any judgment of this in stride understanding that some people may allow themselves more than others in following their interests and I am doing what some people, even some of my critics, secretly want to allow themselves to do but just need to get past what other people think andor what they think of themselves for doing that. I take it more as a compliment, whether from a supporter from a rival or critic, that someone was moved enough to emotion to comment on what I have to say. I also send compassion their way and see the positive/spiritual/creative benefit in such as situation as this is one of the obvious and evident signs when you are on someones mind whether they are a supporter andor judge of what you communicate.

For both present and future and in all areas of my life I keep one of my primary objectives in mind-returning to my ideal weight by May 2018 or sooner while nurturing my passion for writing,and I stay focused even when I am involved in other endeavors.

I am in the process of following both my intuition and logic in taking the wisest and celestially/heavenly inspired actions and plans in living my life in alignment with my divine life purpose and destiny in all areas of my life both present and future.

I successfully move forward in both new and creative ways in various areas of my life both present and future.

I use to be in the navy for over 8.5 years and I am privileged to have been born a U.S. citizen and born a female. Even with both of the challenges and blessings I have experienced, I have noticed the power and privilege of being a woman and so naturally I can easily understand why someone would want to become a transgendered woman.  I admit that I do not have a dog in this fight but I feel that a transgender person deserves to have a chance to serve in the military as long as they qualify for military service just like any other man or woman would have to go through the qualification requirements.

I confess that I am only making a guess yet I have a feeling that anyone currently 50 years old or over as of this year can expect to still see generous social security. However, I have a feeling that any person who is my age or younger is going to have to turn to other money avenues other than social security after the year 2035. This is because even though I am an idealist in multiple areas, the social security fund is one area where I believe that social security is going to be non-existent for someone my age or younger by the year 2035. If social security is still somehow magically around, I have a feeling that the payments are probably going to be somewhere around maybe 300 dollars after taxes monthly at the most if even that.

When I was stationed in Japan back around September 2000 until October 2003 I actually worked with someone who actually got selected into the Navy Seals by 2002. I can easily see why this particular person was selected because they were both highly accomplished and were highly dedicated to going way beyond the minimum navy fitness requirements. Even if I was transformed into a size two today I have an awareness of what my physical body is capable of fitness wise but kudos to the already fit military females who would be selected into this program.

Even with my political leanings, I stand by my statement that Sean Spicer did the best he can with the challenging job of White House Communications Director that he had of defending President Donald Trump from heavy controversies that would
test other emotionally tough people as well. Additionally, I do believe that Spicer's professional experience of him working as a military public affairs officer is going to help him eventually make
a career comeback in another capacity that would allow him to still work in public relations.
