(no subject)
Alrighty so I haven't updated in forever and a day. Thats because nothings really been going on. School is the same as usual its just a routine. The year seems to be going by fast which in a way is a good thing. I'm looking at colleges that I might want to go to and i'm decided. I will still apply to north carolina universities and I will ofcourse apply to universities here in florida. Whichever ones accept me, I will choose from them depending on my current situation. I'm still going to apply at north carolina universities i guess because the idea of living away appeals to every teenager.. am I right? It sure seems nice to me. But I like to think realistically most of the time... so we'll see what happens.
Anyway, nothing else has really been going on. I just have my mind on school right now, and making my senior year count for something. I have a new councelor and she is soooo awesome. I would like to meet up with her every couple months to make sure i'm stil on track. She is so amazing. I thought I wasn't going to be able to apply for bright futures because I only have one credit of foreign languages. She said that because its an AP class, if I pass the test with a 3 or higher she will do what she can to wave it and make it seem like I have 2 credits instead of one. How awesome is that??!! She is so nice! We talked about my major which is ofcourse elementary school teaching. I mostly wanna be like the music teacher that the kids come to see every wednsday(my favortie part of elementary school.lol). But I also wanna be able to teach K-2 grades. Thats when the kids are still very eager to learn and they're not as mean to eachother as when they get older. She explained to me how I could major in one and minor in the other... which ever I choose, and still be qualified to do both because its just elementary school. I'm so excited! I don't understand how I could have possibly thought of actually doing psychology. It seemed like a good idea at the time because yes, I do love helping people and listening to their problems, but I don't always know what to say... and I don't always enjoy it either. But I've always loved kids and ever since I started working my job with kids, I've realized that teaching and spending my days with kids is what I really enjoy and want to do. I still want to take a child psychology class or two maybe on the side just so I can understand the kids better, but it definately won't be my major. I can't sit all day and listen to people talk. I have to be doing something. Thats why I love my job cuz i'm always running around doing something.... usually 2 or 3 things at once. Its awesome.
Wow... anyways... i'm done now. This is a really boring entry. I know most of you guys don't care or probably didn't even read it. But thats ok. I don't care. I just felt like finally updating my journal. Love you all!
