Ok, so I guess I’ve been bitten by the blog bug.<\/p>\n

As you may or may not know, I abandoned my former blog, ajoblessexistence.com, because I no longer have a jobless existence. \u00c2\u00a0Therefore, I continued with the tradition that was established by Kiki when she passed the blog down to me, which then, I passed on to my successor, Alex, to continue with the blog.<\/p>\n

Since then, I’ve had a lot of separation anxiety and a strange kind of empty nest feeling so I decided to establish my own blog, which will probably not be passed down to anyone. \u00c2\u00a0We’ll see how long I keep it.<\/p>\n

Getting a corporate job in the business world has been a big move for me, from my former career as a NYC public high school teacher, and from my former-former career as a freelancing model in NYC.<\/p>\n

Which is why I’ve decided to go with the domain name of motebu.com, MTB for short. \u00c2\u00a0 I’m going to write about my transition into the corporate world from the public sector and my new life in Minneapolis and basically use my blog as my very own therapy and digital counselor, if you will. \u00c2\u00a0Can you guess what MoTeBu means?<\/p>\n

Here I am, the model:<\/p>\n

(ok, you caught me, that’s a modeling photo of me in a suit, but the only photo of me in a suit I have. \u00c2\u00a0Please, just pretend it’s a photo of me drinking a cup of coffee on my balcony in the morning before I head to my office job.)<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Well, it’ll be a week and a half, tomorrow, that I’ve been on the job and so far so good. \u00c2\u00a0I have so many thoughts to share with you — stay tuned!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
