So after I played on other's Blogs, I decided I wanted to start using my blogspot account again. I normally post blogs on my Myspace, but apparently only fourteen year olds hang out there anymore-huh. Who-da thunk it? Oh well. Hopefully after I play around on here, I will be able to thoroughly pimp this out like so many of my friends have.
Anyway. The reason I'm here. I've finally figured out what I want to do! As most of you might already know, I had thought for a long time that psychology was where I was supposed to be. As fascinating as I find the human mind, I just became more and more disinterested as time passed. But this summer I had an epiphany of sorts, and decided that I want to be a teacher. Now that I've made this decision and started doing the necessary things to get enrolled in school, I am beginning to doubt myself. Don't get me wrong, I feel very good about this choice, and it feels like it just fits, but with any huge decision naturally the fear sets in. Everyone has been so great, and the first words out of their mouths is usually "Wow! You'll make such a great teacher!" But the fear is still there. Is it legit or am I just being silly? I'm almost 30 for cripes sake! I should have had this all figured out a while ago.
The thought of going back to school is exciting. I love learning. Hopefully I can get all my testing and appointments completed before school starts. I really don't want to wait to start until January.

That's cool you want to become a teacher! What grade? I can totally see you being an awesome teacher...having fun but not putting up with any crap from the brats! I'm glad you are back on blogspot!
Luv-Karalee :)
I think you're just getting the normal nerves that come with a big decision, like you said. You will be an amazing teacher, and you will love the school environment! Oh, and I think its funny that you are miss kristen, and I am miss Kim. He He!
I think you will be a great teacher! I don't think you are bein silly at all. Everyone has those same fears of whether the thing they invest their time in is going to pan out. Don't worry about taking this long to find out what you wanted to do... I think that happens to a lot of people. It took me a few years too... even a year of going to college for what I thought I wanted. Good luck with everything!
By the way, where are you planning to go for school? I'm attending SLCC on August 20th. :)
