One child at a time




If I had to choose a career today, I would choose to be a 2nd grade teacher. I would like to change the little hearts of America one child at a time. To accomplish this goal, I would need to apply for the Eastern Oregon University Elementary Program as soon as I get over with the finals this term. I would also have to finish all my prerequisites for the program this year, which means that I will have to take at least 19 credits for winter and spring term.  It is hard work and I am willing to succeed for my dream of becoming a teacher. 
                                                                 
Next, I would have to finish the EOU program for Education. That includes student teaching and a lot of classes to attend. After I graduate from EOU I will have my teacher credential and ready to go into a school to teach little children. Also, if I have a family in the future, I plan to teach my kids about everything necessary to live this life with a happy spirit. All the education I will have will be a great benefit. I know that in this journey there will be times when I will want to smile, laugh, but sometimes, I’ll want to run away and cry. I know that the path I’m facing isn’t always full of joy, but I am willing to go through and build a foundation for the little children that will be touched by my life.

Scholars of Everyday Life

My goal as a human being on this planet earth: to learn as I travel through the space of time. Every person is given a mind. Every person is given an environment. Every person is given the time to make something out of those two. Everyday we are given a new chance to make something out of our lives. Everyday is a chance to fix mistakes and build hope for the future. Fortunately, I am one of thousands who are attending community colleges. And one of hundreds who love learning (not just getting their credits counted for). Whether it is art, math, biology, it is my pleasure to attain every part of the lesson and apply it somehow to my life. Here, on the pages of this blog, I will be adding some of my work from my classes. I will share my peer reviewed science journals, personal philosophies, and other written essay work. Hope you spend your time here and won't feel like you wasted it on pointless readings/finds. Enjoy.
