Waiting on the World to Change

So this is my very first blog, ever. I've never been one to post my feelings for the world to see, but things change. Sometimes I think it is good to let other people, even those who are unfamiliar, know what is on your mind. Blogging is perfect for that.

My life has been insane, lately. I'm a sophomore in college and I still don't know what I want to be when I grow up..? Maybe I'll be a professional student... kidding. But, I have been contemplating a few career choices. I love working with kids, and I was/still am thinking about teaching. I'm taking a few classes right now that pertain to teaching, but I was at Barnes and Noble (aka my sanctuary) and I was reading books on flowers..? Who does that? I do. I love flowers. I love everything about flowers, and I love decorating with flowers. So maybe I thought I'd be a florist. Open my own shop. It would be so cute and fun. But I'm scared of owning my own business. I'm not the assertive type of person. I'm shy and reserved. I also loving baking sweet treats. It is one of my favorite things to do. If you've ever been to my humble abode, I always have some sort of cookie, cupcake, brownie, or muffin made. But, is this really something I could do for a living...? And this poses a problem on my passion for helping kids. --When I was younger, my goal in life was to make a difference in as many people's life as I could. Thats how I stumbled upon being a teacher. Kids respect teachers because they are wise. They want to teach you, they want to help you, they want to be there for you, they want to make a difference, they are memorable. Who's better, than children, to change a life? No one.-- So I have all these aspirations, and I can't make up my mind. Sometimes I feel selfish when I want to surpass teaching because I feel like I've been called by the Big Guy upstairs to be a teacher, but is it what I really want? I guess we will see. I have Faith that I will be pointed in a direction that suites me best.

Talk to you soon. :)
