Ahhhhh

I want this semester to be done. I want a break from school. I can’t wait for next semester when I student teach and graduate.

I am ready to start my life out of school. Which in a way seems odd to me. There was a time not too long ago when I thought I could stay in school forever. I now realize that as much as I enjoy learning, I could not be a college student for the rest of my life. I know that because I am going to be a teacher I will have to continue my education, but that will be different. I know that I will end up with at least a masters degree, I know that I will seek out learning opportunities on my own. But that will be different than being a college student for life.

I want to be out there in the world being an adult. I’m ready to be an adult. I know that legally I’ve been one for quite sometime, but being in school kind of removes you a bit from the adult world. Being in school lets you be a kid for just a little bit longer. I know I won’t ever completely grow up, my love of children and teaching won’t let me do that, but I also know that I’m ready for the next chapter in my life.
