I can't believe it,

Another semster has begun and I can already tell it's going to be the hardest one yet :( Even though it's going to be very difficult, I can already tell that it's going to be the most rewarding one thus far. I can already feel myself growing into the teacher that I hope to become which I'd very exciting! I'm going to be lucky enough to spend 5 weeks in a classroom full time which is going to be wonderful. I'm looking forward to reaching that point in the semester and it can't come fast enough!

I also decided to student teach next fall instead of the spring and it's hard to believe that this time next year I'll ready be done with that and only have 2 more classes to take. It's nerve racking how fast time is flying by but I'm so excited for what he future has in store for me.... As long as I can stay warm this next week!

2012

This past year has been another great one for me. So much continues to change in my life and I continue to grow as a student, a friend, a sister, a daughter, and a person. I am looking forward to the many great things that are coming my way within the first at future and I hope to do great things.

2012 marked the halfway point in my journey to obtain my bachelor's degree at Concordia. I have grown so much as a student in the past year and it has been so wonderful to take education classes and have the opportunity to be in the classroom. I look forward to learning more and transforming into the teacher that I hope to become.

I turned 20 and am no longer a teenager which is very weird. I continue to grow older and mature as a person. Days go by so fast and I continue to enjoy my college days.

So many friendships have grown in the past year and I'm so thankful for the new friends I have made, the old friendships that have rekindled, and my friendships that have continued to grow. I am so lucky to have such amazing people in my life and am thankful for them every day.

I am also thankful for my amazing parents. They have done so much for me throughout my life and in this past year. My appreciation for them has increased significantly and I miss them every day. I don't know what I'd do without them. Love you guys!

In the past year, I've began to realize what is and isn't important in my life and I can't wait to see what 2013 has in store for me. I has so many aspirations and I continue to cross many goals off my list. I am so thankful for all that I have and all that I have to grow.
