I’ve pretty much decided that elementary school is what I’m truly going to pursue. It’s difficult to think that if I had just faced my fears and gone after what I truly wanted in the first place, I’d already be where I am striving to be now. But looking into the past and wishing to change things doesn’t do anything but slide you backwards, so I try to move on as best...

I think the sum of what I’ve learned in the past six months or so is that not meeting my own expectations does not mean I have failed.
Fall graduation is no less prestigious than summer (although in my case it would be more expensive), not achieving honors cumulatively does not negate my 3.8 major GPA, and just because I have to take a series of tests to prove that I can, in fact, teach...

I am so tired. And I have so much work to do, with a small window of time to do it.
Sometimes I wonder if I’m really putting my motivation into the right things. But it’s sort of too late for that. In the end I just want to be happy and to do something I’m truly passionate about. Why does life have to lead to endless work, all the time? Why is being a child such a short piece...

I bought “teacher clothes” yesterday. Bright colors, nice khakis, things that make me look professional but not unapproachable. I’m making lesson plans and working as hard as ever, and things are just starting to become real. Soon I’ll have to take a General Knowledge Test, and then a teaching exam. Soon I’ll have to start thinking about where I’ll move to once...
