Feeling slightly more official after getting this in the mail this morning 😊

I did it! Part of my 30 by 30! $100k saved by 30 years old and with 2 months to spare ☺️

3 things to keep private

1. Love Life 

2. Income 

3. Next Move

You know you’ve made it as a nurse manager when you’ve been blocked on Facebook

Fiiinallly!!!

My weekend. Baby shower with my coworkers and The Lion King in Greenville. Makes up for the fact that my brakes decided it was cool to go out while I was driving 🙄

[dispatchedangel]

My coworkers have gotten on my nerves more than the patients tonight

So now I'm sitting here like this...

[dispatchedangel]

Throat feels like it's on fire and I spent too much on my trip to Vegas and LA but season 2 of Chewing Gum is on Netflix!!!!! 🤗🤗🤗 I don't want to leave the house but I need to be able to eat something that doesn't feel like knives down my throat and all I have is Diet Coke and Pringles.

10 years ago when I wore glasses, sported a mouth full of metal, and was actually doing something with my life 😜 3.28.07. "Angelique Jordan Day" per Mayor Deke Copenhaven. (Then they felt the need to take me around the corner, get on the radio, and brag about myself 🙄)

1. Back progress! (With some serious bed head) No more rolls for this girl!

2. I remember taking the first picture and feeling sooo small! But I definitely see a difference from then and my now picture. The scale may not be reflecting my weight loss, but the inches and clothes and pictures sure do.

[dispatchedangel]

Woke up to this being liked and reblogged like crazy. So throwback to when life was easy and I had no back fat😫

[dispatchedangel]

God, night shift is kicking my butt. I look so tired when I work. Good news is I lost 13.6 lbs in January and felt comfortable enough to start wearing this large scrub top again. I didn't meet my January goal but I'm on target to losing 30 lbs before going on vacation in April 🙌🏾

I literally love being at home! In my own space! Comfortable! Not surrounded by people!

[dispatchedangel]

I finally did it! I applied for a management position on the floor that I work on. Essentially it will be the same work. It's really like a glorified charge nurse because I'm not ready to give up patient care, but it's a great stepping stone for the next step in my career.

[dispatchedangel]

Goals for 2017: Lose at least 40 pounds Save $20k (to have $100k by 30) Take at least 5 long distance vacations Advance at my job or get a new job completely Take the GRE and apply to NP schools Make new friends Go to more concerts See more musicals Go on dates Increase my credit score to 800 Buy a new car

S/o to black people who aren’t “black enough” because they don’t do or act like a stereotypical “black person” your blackness still valid homie fuck the ignorance

Randomly scrolled upon this and it's so relevant to me today as yesterday I was made fun of because I didn't know a Lil Wayne song and had a monogrammed jacket.

One, I'm 28 years old. I am who I am. Why does that matter to you? Two, and maybe I'm naive about this, but who judges people? Especially to their face. Be an adult and worry about yourself.

I'm thoroughly obsessed with Bruno Mars' new CD

That is all ❤️❤️❤️

(Oh, and also Chance the rapper's SNL performances)
