Well, it has certainly been a while since I last wrote
anything. But alas, I am back and I have a new vantage point to write from. This
vantage isn’t much different from my last, but the change is there. Since I
last wrote, I have experienced the working world as a college graduate and come
to some conclusions. The first of which is this: If you only have a History
degree, your job options are limited. Many applications and few interviews have
driven this point home. The second conclusion is: While having a job is
important to survive, you cannot truly Live until you are doing what you love.
This brings me to the present. I am back in a dorm (shudders
at the thought) room, but this time it is for a program which has a direction.
As of 8:30am tomorrow, I start Graduate School. I will be pursuing my Masters
of Arts in Teaching. I have felt a call to teach beginning in school and fought
this feeling through college. But “I can’t fight this feeling” anymore. I am
excited to finally have a direction to my education and hopeful about the
future. This will be an interesting experience for sure and I will do what I
can to make myself successful!
