hopped out the bed, turned my swag on
It seems like when it rains, it pours and when shit knocks ya down, shit starts going up and right in all the perfect ways.
I'm now into my second or third month at dominion and i love it. I cannot express how much joy I get from my job, how happy the kids make me and how at home I feel there! Getting to know my co-workers and those kids has been the greatest experience. It feels so great to see one of them address another child, eye contact and a wave or how it feels when a kid finally gets through a really stressful target in his programming. It's all about triumphing major barriers and obstacles and making them grow as individuals.
Tomorrow, I start doing in-home stuff for a little boy in the class, which is really exciting though my day will be almost thirteen hours long. My day is totally occupied by autism and kidsssss. Mannn.
This is what I want to do for the rest of my life. The job has made me get my shit straight and know what i want for myself:
1. returning to school as soon as possible for a year of american sign language, applicable to the field of special needs/autism education
2. returning to vcu when feasible to do psychology
3. back to sarge for teacher certification
4. grow the fuck up
5. find a sweet boyfriend
6. get married
7. have some kids
right now, the first steps were quitting drinking, bout to quit smoking and continue the sober life. i'm redefining boundaries and relationships, i need more depth and appreciation in my life. Then, I need to work more on healthy eating, getting caffeine out of my life.
it's now or never. i'm glad it took me almost four years to realize that life's not all getting wasted, dudes and having fun. there's gotta be balance of both
i want a goddamn future and it starts now.
