Normally I am not a huge fan of blogging. Josh and I thought it was fun when we were dating and first married. But then we got to busy with other things in life and pretty much forgot about our blog. I read all of my friends and family's blogs daily and decided that I should give it a try on my own. I need to be better at this form of journal writing since I don't even write in my old journal anymore which is so sad because I was "journal writing queen."
Anyway...I thought I would give everyone an update on my life right now. I am working at Westmore Elementary as an instructional assistant and it's quite the challenging job for me. I help kids that need tutoring in math and reading. I work with the same group of kids every single day. They make me laugh a lot and teach me so much everyday that I know I couldn't learn anywhere else.
The biggest thing I have learned in my experience at Westmore is that I don't think teaching is for me! Being in the classroom on a daily basis has really shown me what teaching in your own classroom is really like and I just don't think it will make me happy for the rest of my life.
So I dropped the program at UVU and I am just taking a break for the time being. So I go to work in the morning for an hour and then I am home during the day to do whatever my little heart pleases. I go back to work in the afternoon for a couple of hours and then I head home. Right now this is working out great for me and I am loving life.
I hate making big life decisions without a real outcome, but I know when I have to do it. My current plan is to enroll at Weber State University and declare Respiratory Therapy as my major. I was an intern in the respiratory therapy unit at American Fork Hospital in high school and absolutely loved it. I am hoping this is the right direction for my life and right now it feels right.
Life is up and down and totally unsure right now and the craziest thing about it is that I'm alright with it. I am a 5-year-plan kind of girl and right now I am flying by the seat of my pants. So here we go...life is one big adventure and I'm ready for the ride!
