So once again, it was been way too long since I have last posted. Almost another year has gone by and all of the life that goes with it. I think I will just devote this entry to school stuff...but we will see how that goes.
So I believe I was in summer classes the last time I wrote. Since then I have put in one semester at Mansfield University and am currently half way through another. I love it at Mansfield. I finally feel like its a school that I belong to. I have friends that are both from my home town and other places. I also have amazing teachers. So far, I have at least tolerated all my teachers...and when they weren't my favorite it was mostly due to the fact I didn't like the subject they were teaching. Anyway, I love the teachers in me degree programs; they are great people and great teachers.
I am now majoring in both English and French. However, I am getting a B.A. in both rather than a B.S.E. It was a huge decision to drop my Education major, but I am so glad that I did. The Education program just wan't the place that I belonged. As of right now I plan on going on to Grad School for English, though nothing is really difinite. I am way too indecisive for my own good. One day I lean towards foreign languages and think about going into linguistics. Then, the next day I really enjoy literature discussions and think about goint that way. Other days I lean towards grammar and writing. So far, I still feel like I will be teaching...but hopefully at the college level. I just don't know exactly yet. I surprise myself everyday. For example, I used to think that I hated American Literature. But now that I am in my second Am Lit class, I am really enjoying it and I am not loving British Lit class as much. I also surprise myself in French often. It amazes me how it just clicks. I love when things just make sense.
All in all I am just really proud of myself. I live in ruts, and I hate change. I can't believe I actually changed my major. It may not seem like a huge deal, but basically I laughed a comfortable, stable life and picked a path that is much more unpredictable. I am aslo really surprised how happy this has made me. I finally feel like I am starting to find myself in all of this unknown.
Well i think that is enough for now. I am hoping to talk about other things besides school, but I am not making any promises.
