update

I have realized that most people have no idea where I am or what I'm doing with my life. Rest assured, I'm not too sure either! I am in Mode town again (as Herb likes to call it). I am living with my sister and her family (husband: Justin and daughter: Hayden, she just turned 3). It's definitely an adjustment from living with just one other roommate and having my own room. I share my room with Hayden's toys and clothes right now. It's a tight squeeze! I am working at In-N-Out and Jamba Juice. Both have recently turned into good opportunities. I was beginning to wonder if either would work out and considered getting a different job, but I am pretty happy with them at the moment. Hopefully I will start getting more hours at both so I won't feel like I moved back for nothing. For those of you wondering why I moved back, it was to save money and get a car and figure out what to do school/career wise. So this summer I will be taking classes at MJC and in the fall I have to make a decision to either continue at MJC for another semester or to go to Fresno City for a semester. In the spring I'll be able to transfer to a university. So far Fresno State has a pretty good chance, but knowing me, that could all change! I think I want to teach autistic children, so that means I will probably need to get a Master's at some point. I still haven't done much research to find out what sort of degree I will need, but I have come to terms with the fact that I will have to continue with school for longer than I would really like. But I think it is well worth it if it means I will get to do something that I am passionate about. I know some people probably heard about my opportunity to travel to Spain to be an Au Pair for the rest of the year. Unfortunately, I was unable to obtain the necessary documentation to get a Student Visa for many reasons and I will not be able to go. I have not given up on my dreams to travel, however. I will just have to keep my eyes and ears open for other opportunities. So, for now I am working, soon to be taking classes and will soon be dedicating much time to the well deserved Kimberly for her upcoming wedding. I have felt very anti-social since I have moved back. I think I have lacked motivation to see anyone because of my own lack of a car and because I am still adjusting the idea of being back. That is not to say that I don't want to see anyone, I really do, I guess I just need to get off of my heiney! I hope that was enough of an update, any questions? :0)
