Hello all! And I say all I mean those few people who happened to accidentally click on this blog besides my professor.
What is this post all about??
Question:
Who are you and what makes you worthy of a blog?
Sources:
The reason for this post is because "Blogger" does not allow me to fix my "about me" section on my main blog. Instead you could click through a few more pages and stalk me properly, but who has the time for that.

I am a college student at the University of Oregon (Sco' Ducks!) studying education, with the hope of a job as an elementary teacher. Some people might ask: why on earth would you want to spend everyday of your working life surrounded by children who still scream and cry for what they want? It's simple, someone has to, and that someone should have passion and drive for their job. In high school I had a really great teacher. Everyday she would come into class with a smile on her face, because she loved what she taught and who she taught it to. Some days she was a little down, that always meant that the first 5-10 minutes would be dominated by YouTube videos and other little pick-me-ups, to help anyone having a bad day. This drive was my inspiration to become a teacher.

This is my sophomore year at the U of O, and after only one year here I know I love it. The main issues and obstacles I've had to deal with have been balancing all of my activities, while being able to balance school work. I have to work two jobs, Cinnabon and Taco Bell, in order to afford college, because my family is only a middle income and can only support by giving me a close place to live, with meals every so often. I am also in a fraternity that requires time and commitment to get as much as I can out of it during my four years. Also one other thing that I do on the side is a small internship at my old high school. I am close friends with the teacher, and it was a robotics program initially started by my best friend and I, that has grown into a class. The instructor allows me to come in and help students with the same issues that I faced during my four years of robots, and I feel like it is great practice for my career.
So, that's where I'm at right now. An optimistic person, sitting in an Educational Studies classroom, on a path to become a teacher.
Blog Edit (10/7/13): Yes I now noticed how to edit my about me. Oh well, this is much more fun.
