Future Plans

Tagged:  •    •  

My last day of high school was April 25th. I am recently employed at a diner as a dishboy. I have IB tests from May 5th until May 16th. I have orientation from May 28th until the 29th. My graduation party is on June 14th. My 18th birthday is on July 22nd. I start college in the fall.

What do I plan on doing in college?
I am going into Spanish (and secondary education).
I've tested into the highest class as I possibly can, but tomorrow I am calling the university to see if I can get into a class higher than Spanish 215 somehow.
I need to start thinking about what else I would like to be certified in for teaching as well, because I know that having just one is not as ... marketable.

I love art. I couldn't do it in high school. I'm not going to have time or money to do it in college. Certification in teaching would take too long since both Spanish and Art are K-12 programs. I guess it will just have to be a hobby now.

There are ASL classes at my college under communications but there is no certification program there. Maybe I will go to the community college that does have it over the summer if I can afford it. I almost became permentally deaf/Deaf as a child so the idea of ASL has been greatly stuck in my head. I think having a better grasp of ASL would be important for me personally and as a general idea.

I mean, I have what I want narrowed down but there are two other things that are greatly important to me that might just get sidelined. I don't know what to do with that even though I know I can't do everything. It's just kind of a boogling thing.

Are you like me? Do you write to organize your thoughts, plan for the future, and culminate opinions rather than just thinking about them?

Gosh I think it's so difficult to articulate without writing.

If there is more than one thing you want to do, don't give up on it. People double-major all the time. Especially if both are education programs, you may be able to do it in five years depending on your course load.

Never give up on something you want to do. Think about it, write about it, talk about it, pray about it, and you can find a way to make it happen.
