UPDATE -- The Queen behind Horror!


I've been M.I.A. for a bit and I feel horrible about it, but I've been pretty busy with a side job that I had. Yes, HAD! It is gone and honestly, it's for the best. It had absolutely nothing to do with any type of goals I have for myself. I thank that job for the opportunity but this is for the best. This was just one of the many jobs that I disliked, as a result of this one, it made me push through to break boundaries I never thought I could.

I know that I'm a very ambitious person, and if there is something that I want, I always go out and get it. Always. Not many people know this about me but I have an Early Childhood degree *SHOCKER!!!* Yes, I know! I'm a die hard horror fan, but I also love kids! And at one point, I wanted to be a pre-k teacher before eventually becoming a Professor of History. Once I had my Early Childhood degree, after all those long hours, hard work and listening to parents tell me all the things their child is allergic to, I realized that was NOT my passion nor my interest. I knew I couldn't spend the rest of my life doing that. In fact, I started to despise working in daycares. I had an amazing offer from prestigious daycares to be a part of their team, but I knew I couldn't take on an opportunity I would be miserable in.

That was an issue that I did for myself that family, close friends and random people could not understand about me. I refuse to take on a job that's paying me well but I'm completely miserable! YIKES! I'm not saying that teachers are miserable, but if I would have became one, I would have been. There have been too many times I put myself in situations where I knew I didn't want to be there.  Maybe that's not the most intelligent way to get ahead, but my goal isn't to get ahead in those fields. I know I'm an emotional thinker and that's often not good in life's situations!

Anyhow, ever since I graduated college in 2009, I never wanted to go back, especially since I felt like I wasted years of my life getting that degree. I did say to myself if I ever were to go back to school, it wouldn't be for a waste and I'd actually use that degree. As a result, I decided that I'm going to start from scratch and go back to school. I decided that I'm going to school for Fashion and Retail Management. Yes, the REAL QUEEN OF HORROR is going to go to Fashion School! Horror and Fashion are my two favorite things anyway. So, it's makes perfect sense!

My goal with this degree is to, of course, learn as much as possible and own a boutique, filled with fantastical delights. I was inspired by my current employer, and I was able to see how much I adore fashion and the freedom to be creative! I know this is not going to be easy, but I'm surprisingly looking forward to the challenge. I'm proud of myself for figuring this out and wanting to pursue this! And I'm beyond excited for the plans I have and what's in store for me.

So! That's just an update on what's going on with me! Married life is awesome. My husband is supportive and understanding of what I love and what I'll be pursuing. So, I'm happy with my support system. It's a relief that I do not feel like a flip flopper! Real Queen of Horror, on the 21st of this month, will be 3 YEARS OLD and I plan on doing a giveaway! So make sure you keep on checking back! 

I hope that everyone is doing well and I will definitely update
on here often about this new endeavor!
