Sooooooo
I haven't posted in quite some time. And what's going on, you may ask?
Well, nothing huge honestly. Life is just life, and I can't complain about anything right now.
i guess the most major thing that's occurred is I've figured out what I want to do with my life - I want to be an interpreter for the deaf. I'm minoring in American Sign Language (ASL) now, and should be done with the minor within the next 2 semesters...ish...lol
To become an interpreter you have to take a test and all that jazz. Shouldn't be too hard - and of course there are different levels of it as well. And of course I wanna be the top level, just cuz that's how I roll. But, interpreters make a good amount of money and it's something I love. I love Deaf Culture and interacting within it. And I definitely can't wait until I can start my career in it.
Part of me just wants to quit school and finish taking ASL classes at a community college and get my certification and what not...and just do it. Why not? I don't know if i even want to go into journalism anymore now that I know I want to be an interpreter. Although I suppose it would be nice to have that background in it to fall back on. Or I could always do both, bring in the big bucks LOL.
Yeah, I'll finish my time at Central, and I'll love it. I'll a degree. I'll get a job. I'll move out of my mom and Ken's house. I'll get my own place. I'll live in michigan for a couple more years. I'll move to california. I'll get another job. I'll get another place. And I won't just survive...but I'll LIVE.
