When I was little I loved reading! My Grandma was a Librarian in North Dakota and it was great to be able to spend a week with her and see how many books I could get done; that was at age 10. At age 18-23 for me reading was spent on College Lit, Master's Lit or on a rare occasion Chick lit on my vacation (The few times I was able to read for pleasure). Now at age 28 I have found that being able to read for pleasure is a must for me.
Over the past snow days I read 2 books in one day and I was jazzed about it. My parents surprised me with a Kindle and I was pretty happy about that. I now have 21 books downloaded on it, and it is easy to carry around in my purse. Currently I am reading Chelsea Handler's first book and Soul Identity. But on top of that, I have a pile of books to be read.
After reading this....all I was thinking was "Cool Story Bro" I am not exactly where I intended to say with the post, but yay reading!

Sometimes I forget that I need to blog....
I wish I could say that there is a legitimate reason as to my lack of blogging, but there really isn't. To be honest, I have been preferring Twitter over this because I am only able to think in 140 characters. (kidding)
Time to rock a little "Bridget Jones' Diary" action:
Date: March 25
Relationship status: Complicated
Job status: Love, love love it; Teaching high school is wonderful.
Vices: Girl scout cookies, mint chip ice cream, movies, fried food, etc.
Life: I really can't say that it sucks, I have great friends, great students, the cutest dog in the world, and a wonderful family. I am not feeling that I am missing out anything. Of course, I would love to have a little more cash in my pocket, but who wouldn't?
Moving on...
As previously stated, I love my job, it is one of the top 5 things that bring me joy. However, with every moment of my job there is an equally frustrating moment, like budget cuts, reading comprehension, pushing students to try, and go out on a limb, standards and what not. It also doesn't help that there is some major backlash going in and against my profession. With that being said, a lot of my time has been spent thinking about and what I want it to look like. Do I want to get another degree? Should it be in Administration? Or should I further into a specific area, theater? communications? education? and teach at the college level? Who knows, I still have plenty of time to decide!
Glad I remembered to blog today. :)
