You're Always on my Mind

This semester is coming to a close... I have a feeling I won't make Dean's List again, but I'll only miss it slightly. I'll probably get 3 A's and 2 B's. Oh well. At one point, I was really stressing out about this, but I had to remind myself to breathe. My grades won't represent what type of teacher I'll be or what I really know, grades are just an arbitrary way of showing students who's boss ;)

I really do work hard for my grades, though. I care about my GPA because I know that one day (when applying for teaching jobs) it will matter. I wish I was in the Honors program, but it's a little too late. I think it is hard for transfer students to get into the Honors system, but then again, I didn't really try. Most of the classes that would count for honors credit are classes that I've already taken (English, Math, Core Humanities). Oh well- I don't have to graduate suma cum lade. A title on my future diploma will not define me.

Everyone wants to be the best at everything; I just want to be the best at being me.

Thinking About...

Honestly, I just realized something. Unfortunately, I have to leave for a final in a few minutes, so it will have to wait, but it's about judgement. Judging people, actions, activities, and using my thinking cap to discover what's right for me. I'll blog about it later- I'm going to need a distraction when I'm trying to work on a couple of assignments later!

Ch-ch-ch-changes

So the semester is almost over and I'm grateful. I'm in the process of entering the college of education and I haven't taken my skills test yet... But I'm excited because I've heard it's easy and plus, I'm going to be a junior in college soon!

I've done a lot lately... like go to Las Vegas for the first time... FOR FREE!!! It was amazing, but I didn't get to do the regular tourist-y stuff because I was there for business. I stayed in the Trump Hotel and got to walk around the strip! It was very cool.

Also, I got a position that I've really wanted for a long time! I start in August and can't wait!

One other thing; I've been exercising regularly and eating healthier. I've lost 2 pounds already! (I know that is a small amount, but I am excited, so whatever!) I've been keeping a food journal for 2 weeks and I go to the gym everyday.
