I feel like working in a mostly female office, or in any office, I wear so many mask. Something I definitely need to work ok.

I think it's easy to hide behind a mask and not even realize you're doing so. Especially when it comes to meeting new people and just wanting to be liked. But good for you, I'm so happy with how life is going for you in Charlotte!

Sometimes your posts feel a bit like reading my diary (except with less doodly hearts and practice cursive). As I prepare for the move to a place where many people know 15 year old Kim I'm so ready to show what the 26 year old version of me has to offer- and ready to just be 100% and like you said some people will love that and others won't but that's ok too.
If things don't work out I'm moving into your building- it sounds like such fun!

Moving around a lot gives me a chance to reinvent myself. However, it's hard to meet new people with them only seeing what you wear, not what your past is.
This might be too thought-provoking for me to handle at the moment 🙂

Life is too short not be your true self. I'm also at at the age where I don't care about what people think of me haha. I agree with what Amanda said too. Be proud of who you are because you're a beautiful person inside and out!! 🙂

Honestly, I try and be 'myself' most of the time, but I am rarely 100% me. And there is nothing wrong with that. I don't like to talk about things I love with people who don't love them, you know? A huge part of me is a bookworm, but my besties don't love books like I do. They are still my besties, and they would listen to me if I wanted to talk, but I like to reserve book talk for other bookworms. You know? But anyway.
I used to be pretty insecure. I still kind of am sometimes, but the number one thing that helps me not freak out, is that I do not like everyone. Simple as that. Therefore, not everyone can like me!

Good for you! It's not always an easy thing to do and I love the way you analyzed yourself in this post. Happy Monday, girl!
