Be the change you wish to see in the world

Okay, let’s face it, I’m the worst blogger ever.  Well, at least the worst one on my own personal site.  It’s been.. forever since my last post and update, and I really need to get back to this all.. I swear I’m going to try to be better.  I’ve had a lot going on in my life lately, so I’ve been playing catch up a bit there.

I can officially put this on my site now…. I got a new job!  I worked at my last position for about two and a half years.  As my fortune cookie the other night said, “Burned bridges are hard to cross”, so I won’t go into huge detail really, but I will say that I was doing IT work (database administrator was my title, but I kind of dabbled in everything and wasn’t a REAL dba by normal standards).  I think I was pretty damn good at my job, but what it comes down to is I wasn’t passionate about it.  I liked things here and there, but I wasn’t in love with what I was doing or with the industry and so, at the end of the day, I was working for the paycheck, or the weekend, or whatever other cliche you can come up with.

I found a marketing position (Marketing Associate is my official title) at a great company in Mt. Laurel, and just started 2 weeks ago (today was my 12th day)!  The company is Robard Corporation/Food Sciences Corporation and I have to say, it’s a really great place to work so far.  I’ll be doing a lot of writing/blogging/social media stuff, so be sure to check out the websites: www.robard.com and www.foodsciences.com and the blog blog.robard.com.  I’m learning a lot about health and healthy living, and hopefully I can transfer it to my home life.

For the first time in a long time, I can say I’m excited to go to work everyday and loving what I’m doing and what I’m learning.  I’m just content and happy.. and I feel like things are going right for me.  Yay!

On a side note, I’ve been bombarded with this quote lately and need to say I think it relates to a lot of what is going on in the world: Be the change you wish to see in the world.  With that said donate now to Haiti.  Come together as one world, for one goal.
