Here's what's going on.....

Ok, I know I am not good at keeping up on my blog. I will try to do better! I wanted to update everyone on what is going on in my life right now! I turned 26 yesterday!!! I haven't decided yet if that is a good or bad thing. I don't feel any older :). I am going to school and nearly killing myself. I am taking 4 online classes right now and I stay so busy. I have two more classes in the Spring and then I will finally graduate and have my BS in Humanities. I feel like this was a long time comeing, but I can finally see the end in sight. I am still working as a substitute teacher and I really love it. I like having a job where I work with kids. Karson is in Mrs. Rothstine's 2nd grade class. He is being challenged (which I love) and he has a lot of the same friends from last year. That is different for us because we move so much! He is really doing good though and he is very happy. He keeps me grounded and motivated at the same time. Ok, so here is what I have been thinking.....I don't know how much I want to be a part of the school system after seeing how they are ran. I know there will be politics in any kind of job that I have, but there is just something about school politics (just ask my dad). So as much as I love working with kids I don't know if education is the route that I want to take with my career. I am considering going to law school! Yep I said it, law school. Scary huh? Well, I would focus on being a civil rights attorney and work with women and children. I think that I could do a lot of good. I don't know how many of you have seen The West Wing, but my dream job would be what Amy does. For those of you who havn't seen the show, Amy represents and fights for the rights of women and childrn on a national level. I know that is far fetched, but I feel like there is something big that I am supposed to do and I think that a law degree is a big step. I know what your thinking.....that I'll probably change my mind again because I have so many times, that is possible, but I am really passionate about this and very motivated. I think I may have found my own path FINALLY! I'm going to meet with an advisor for the law school here at UNLV next week. I will keep you all updated on what happens.
