Black Vloggers ?

Starting to realize that the black travel market really is untapped. I used to say it because it was just staying the obvious however seeing it ring true and genuinely not being able to find YouTube videos of blacks in places like Thailand ???? I was really like ?? Am I not searching correctly ? Why are the blacks not even on the first page ? Like I am very confused and concerned. We travel too and that’s what I want to share with everyone. On Instagram there is representation or perhaps I strategically only deal with black travelers.

Highly confused

Reality

Y’all , constantly being turned down , denied , rejected , really takes a toll on a persons soul. Genuinely speaking it’s a feeling that I had been dreading and avoiding since I first experienced it on my first round of actually applying to jobs regarding my field . I had giving up sort of and kind of just settled for an hourly job until I miraculously landed a caseworker job at this nonprofit company. My first salary job and I got it applying to admin and receptionist jobs that have nothing to do with my field . If it wasn’t for my coworkers encouraging me to apply for a job in my field again idk if I would have tried .

I’m starting to realize that that feeling is not something I should dread but embrace because in reality you won’t learn to ice skate if you fear falling in the ice.

I think that I’ll just take every application round as a grain of salt and improve each time . This time improved my resume I gotta see what’s the next move I gotta make to market myself and at least have people take a chance with me.

Side note for my self , that pr firm interview I went to she literally tried to turn me down so fast her partner really couldn’t even keep up just cause of my passion for travel . The lady really tried to say it’s not relevant to food. Had us both like ??? Yes it does miss next. I’m sure they’ve rejected me already so on to the next and I can just keep on applying

Y’all

My life is in shambles, education wise, I can’t seem to complete my masters, I’ve already wasted a whole year and I’m on route to waste another. I genuinely need to take these classses in person but living in Florida for now is so out of reach. Transferring schools is so out of reach and I’m back at that low I felt when I exited high school and ended up at that community college. It sucks and I know I overcame it but I still don’t see the light at the end of this tunnel it’s stressful

I promise to start taking care of myself and my image

Life update

I tend to write when I’m anxious and I’m On my way! To the airport for my birthday Trip to Cuba and I’m just nervous that I got everyone on board and paid for this trip and if something happens that we don’t get the visa idk how I’d handle it . I’ve done my research, spoken to several people . All have concluded that it’s possible to get in but what’s important to me is the small possibility that we MAY not get it’s what gets me

My life is going downhill due to finances and I gotta get my shit together

I don’t regret my educational journey but man I wish I had a post graduate plan , a more thorough plan because honestly I was solely banking on peace Corp

And once that went out the window so did any life after college plan . I decided going my masters super late which adds another bill

Getting out of high school my main stressor was not knowing what I wanted to major and that I wouldn’t be considered an adult in. My parents eyes till I get that degree

Now as a college graduate my stressor is paying off my debt and loans , but also wondering if I’d be considered an adult once I achieve my masters degree. How will I then begin my life ? Like that’s it that’s the end I’m dont with the clutch that is school . I’m out in the real world .

[respectedbandit]

I wonder if I’ll make it as an adult cause right now at age 22 I don’t feel like I am an adult even though I just moved back from college.

I always thought my life would begin with once Igor my bachelors degree and that my parents would view me as an adult but like now I think that’ll happen when I get my masters

Or when I make it happen I guess .
