Hello All!
It’s a new year and I have a new life plan! I have decided
to start blogging again as a way to share my journey as a young women coming of
age.
Just to get you all caught up on my life I graduated from
college last December with a degree in business. I spent some time finding
myself and figuring out what I wanted to do with my life. I spent a great deal
of time applying for jobs that related to business. The more I applied for
those jobs the more I decided I didn’t want to do any of the things required by
the jobs I was applying for. So I started getting back into the habit of
regular prayer and meditation. I also focused on figuring out my strengths and
the things I truly enjoy. After a praying for God to lead me toward whatever
path He intended for me it all just hit me, I want to teach!!!
Teaching is something that has been suggested to me for many
years and I have always fervently refused and dismissed the idea. But it came
to my attention that my love for kids and my desire to change the education
system left me with only one option: entering the education system! Duh! When
the thought of teaching first came to me I thought it was crazy and all of my
family and friends would think I was out of my mind. But when I spoke to my dad
about teaching the first thing he told me was, “Finally, what took you so long?!”
I was shocked!! He said he always knew that is where I would end up. The rest
of my inner circle had the same response. I was soo excited to have so much
support! I have a wonderful family and some amazing friends! I’m just sayin!!
Now I will be honest, teaching in the classroom is only one
part of my goal. I eventually want to go into administration. Maybe become a
principal…who knows! I am not 1200% sure how I’m going to get there but I will
definitely keep you posted. Now I am applying for some teaching fellowships. My goal is to move to a new city this summer!
It’s all very exciting!! I can’t wait to see what’s next!
Talk to you soon!!
