WORK!

I forgot to tell everyone about where I worked!! Although that may not be important to some people, it is very important to me because of how much I absolutely love my job and the people I work with.

I started just this past February, honestly at the beginning, I wasn't so sure about it. The worst part was standing all day. My feet were not used to it at all and by the end of the day I would honestly want to die. BUT. As the time went on, my feet became more used to it and I got to know everyone I worked with. It is a lot of fun. I work as a receptionist at a hair salon. It is so much fun to be around people and talk on the phone. I do love it. However, the worst part is I know that I just can't live off of what I make unfortunately...SO, I decided to go back to school.

I thought long and hard about it but I finally decided what I wanted to do. I am going to take Human Services and hopefully become a guidance counselor by the end of things. I decided to do this because of how much I truly care about people and if I can help them, I will do what I can for them. And the fact that I just love kids. So, I am hoping that all those things will add up, and I will find a career I absolutely love.

I am very nervous to start school... I always get nervous starting something new. I know that this is something I will love and be complete passionate about.  I am just very excited to learn about this type of work.

Bryan is in school right now and thankfully he we will only be going to school together for about 2 months and then he will start working. He is going to school to be a butcher, which is pretty cool but something i definitely could not do. He will start his practicum in January and then graduate by the end of the month or the beginning of February. I am looking forward to getting school over with and starting with our lives.

I am going to continue working part time while I am in school until next December. I am a little worried about working, going to school and then planning a wedding at the same time. I'm sure things will work out seeing as how I have a lot of bridesmaids and friends to help me =)


I love my job, and the people I work with so much, but I can't wait to start a new chapter and go back to school!!

My Very Own Eulogy and Obituary.

This may be a morbid one! I had to write my own eulogy and obituary for a class! Enjoy! Obituary: Shelby Robyn Collett, 23, of Calgary, Alberta passed away on November 12, 2015 after fighting a very long and hard battle. She was born on January 25, 1992 in Drumheller, Alberta, she was the only daughter of Ralph Collett and Yvonne Comstock. She graduated from Strathmore High School in 2010 and was in the middle of completing her teaching degree at Mount Royal University. Shelby is survived by her parents, her grandparents, George and Jewel Comstock, her sister Paige Severtson (Brad), her brother Casey Collett (Pam) and her nieces and nephews, Dayne, Kali, Carson, Grady and Lila. Along with numerous special aunts, uncles, cousins and friends.  A celebration of Shelby's life will be held in Hussar, Alberta on November 17, 2015 and Shelby made a request that bright colours are to be worn as well as that in lieu of flowers please make donations to a charity of your choice. ...

First Things First!

My name is Shelby. I am a indecisive 20 year old from Alberta! I was born and raised in Alberta, I am from a teeny tiny town that no one has ever heard of. So,  half the time I don't even tell people. It just creates a big mess of trying to explain where it is and the other person truly thinking that it is somewhere in Siberia.  I was born on January 25th , to two people who have been together for about 26 years now! Never married though, just engaged =) It is sooo confusing trying to explain to people my parents situation! We have 2 houses, because my Dad works in the city 6 days out of the week. Everyone just assumes my parents are divorced, seeing as how they don't get to live together and they have different last names! I would probably assume the same thing if someone told me that weird story haha! I have 1 sister that is my very best friend. She is 9 years older then me, is married with 2 kids and 1 more on the way!!! She has 2 little boys that are absolu...

Miss me?!

Hello, you beautiful and wonderful people! Well it seems it has been awhile since I wrote last and I honestly cannot believe it has been over 8 years since I started this blog, man, if I had kept up it would have been amazing.... But seeing as how I haven't written in 2 years, it is not so miraculous.  Anywho, I have been trying to focus more on self care these days and I remember how much I enjoyed writing in here. So... What's new? Uhmm I want to take the easy way out and say nothing but it has been 2 years, so obviously something is new! 1. I called it quits with my B.Ed for honestly, a lot of different reasons. 2. I went back to doing hair - who would have thought! 3. I went through a really hard breakup and a broken heart. 4. I met the most wonderful human. 5. I dealt with a lot of death. 6. I am starting to figure myself out. Well, where shall we start to elaborate on any of that... How about school...  Well, I did almost 2 years of school and it was hard....
