The American Cancer Society:
Shared via AddThis
Why am I walking?
Today, there is more hope than ever for people facing breast cancer. However, there is much work to be done to find promising new treatments, increase awareness about the importance of mammograms, help all women get access to screenings and care, and connect those impacted by the disease with the information, day-to-day help, and emotional support they need to wage their battle against breast cancer.
I believe that hope for a world without breast cancer starts with me. That’s why I'm walking in the American Cancer Society Making Strides Against Breast Cancer event. Not only is this my opportunity to join my community to fight back against breast cancer, it is a way to inspire hope by raising funds and awareness to help those facing the disease and save more lives.
And you can be a part of it, too.
I have signed up to walk and hope you will join me in my effort by signing up to join my team or making a donation in support of my participation. Hope starts with us.

Being twenty-something is not so glamourous
You graduate from college and then you are supposed to get that great job and live happily ever after. Yeah right. I have found my twenties to be the exact opposite of the fantasyland I thought I had spent my entire life working toward. In retrospect of simply writing that last sentence I realize that "my entire life" really hasnt been so long afterall...which might mean why my twenties have turned out to be more of a struggle. And as a struggle I mean it in every aspect of life. Personal & Professional. I find being twenty-something I cant stop feeling overwhelmed long enough to find a solid sense of direction. In my quest to find this direction for the past few years I have been convinced that everything will come together if I just move out of my hometown, Atlanta, and start fresh. Being able to move has been a struggle also - not enough money to cover moving expenses, cant find a job in any of the places that I would actually like to live. We can discuss moving later, but as I was once again researching where my perfect place on this planet might be, I came across an article called 20-things-to-do-in-your-20s. I at least have accomplished some things on the bloggers list. Maybe I am doing something right afterall.
adsense
There is something wrong with my adsense account. Or with blogger?? I dont know what is going on, but my page impressions for this month have dropped by like 500% from last month. I cleared everything out of my blog and started over with a new layout, template, etc to try and fix it...we will see.
