I’ve heard much about the Walden University’s online degree programs that are helping so many people get their degrees which ultimately enables them to make the “big” bucks. In these past few darken years of being stuck right smack dab in a major Depression the “big” bucks is what we are all striving for. In order to learn about Walden I spent some time checking them out online, I found that at WaldenU.edu that they have a very intensive website that took some time for me to absorb. You gotta remember, I just barely made it out of High School. College was never really in the picture for me, back in those days. All my mother wanted me to do was to become a secretary and marry the rich boss, she never really got over the fact that I ended up in the food and beverage industry, a bar wench.

Anyway, I’m thinking of getting into the Social Services field since I have a good heart and know how to talk and deal with people. I think that I am a compassionate human being that enjoys assisting people in any way that I can, been known to literally give the shirt off of my back to some one that needs it more than I do. Anyone that is dealing with people in need most definitely require a HUGE dose of compassion and unfortunately what I have found from personal experience and from thousands of horror stories that I have heard from friends, family and my bar customers, is that the majority of these “professionals” are seriously lacking any type of compassion along with a lot of other qualifications that I think are necessary for this type of career. I think anyone that chooses a career (any career really) should enjoy it to a certain extent and not in it just for the money.

I like to think that I help a lot of people while tending the bar, but the tip jar is rarely flowing over from them all. Knowing that I could be doing the same thing and was guarenteed to go home on payday with a sum that would not only pay the rent on a house of my own as well as the utilities, insurance premiums, taxes, and keep gas, oil and decent tires on the car, well it would be awsome. But at the end of the day if I look in the mirror and like what I see because of what I have done for somebody that day that really effected their lives that day well that is just be the ultimate high.

I don’t know why I enjoyed watching “Pregnant and 16″ which turned into Teen Mom 2 on MTV, but I do. Today they are having an all day marathon in preparation for the season finale this Tuesday night, which should be a good episode. Then the next week they will start all over again with a new group of 16 year olds that have found themselves 16 and pregnant which I’m sure I’ll be trying to catch every Tuesday evening at 10pm on MTV.

I’ve always imagined that the advertising business would be an awesome business to get into. All the different people that you would get to meet and all the places that it would take you to in the whole exciting and fast paced process. I remember watching the old TV show “Bewitched” were both of her Darrin husbands (remember there were two of them) worked for his boss Larry Tate at  the McMann and Tate Advertising Agency in the beautiful, always sunny state of California. I always envied Samantha and always wished that I looked like her, had her powers, her life, her kids, her house, even her wacky relatives seemed appealing to a young girl like myself back in those days. The way that they were always chasing down accounts with some of the most interesting and entertaining people. And all the entertaining that they did at their house for the Advertising Agency , one that paid the bills nicely, it just fascinated me and I seriously thought that I would grow up in a marriage and lifestyle that they led, with or without the magic, but a girl could dream, right?

Now “I Dream of Jeanie” was another story. I liked that show as well, but it was much more unrealistic, for the most part, but still enjoyable. Of course Jeanie hooked up with an astronaut that didn’t want her to use her powers versus Samatha marrying a man who worked for a large well to do Advertising Agency, who didn’t want her to use her powers either. I never could understand that concept, I don’t think most people did, but both shows were hit shows for a good run. Once in a while I’ll stumble across a channel that is playing some of the reruns, if I have the time and in the right mood, they are good for a chuckle or two and they bring back some pretty cool childhood memories as well.

I think it is so much fun to watch the “Real Housewives of Beverly Hills” on my satellite tv that I got after learning more about DirectTV HD DVR Prices information on the Bravo network. This show is truly one of the best that Bravo has to offer. It is a reality show that depicts the lives of housewives living in Beverly Hills. While the show may seem to be about the drama of these wives’ lives, which is surely is, a high emphasis is also placed on the fashion choices of these women.

It is so fascinating to see how much the women shop on this show! I always love seeing the types of stores that the Beverly Hills housewives shop at, as well as what kinds of clothes they choose to wear out. I think it is hilarious to see forty-year old women wearing four inch heels to do some everyday shopping or walking around the town. Yet, women do this every single day. These women are truly troopers for how seriously they take their fashion! I also find it inspiring to see older women still rocking a youthful appearance. These women have fun with fashion, which is one of the subtle messages they convey to other audiences. These women have a passion for fashion and they want to share it with others through this show. Overall, I love this show for the many fashion tips I get from it!
