Why did I start this blog and blogging in general?  Well, there are many reasons that I started blogging or want to blog now and for the future. I want to start blogging because of the fact that I have been wanting to start one for a while. I had started another blog, here, on Blogger earlier this year for one of my classes for my teaching degree. I also had a blog that I used for a couple of art classes while in high school which I have not used since 2017, about three years ago from when this was written. I wish I posted more of my art but never did and that blog is still up to this day. These blogs are the reasons that I actually wanted to create a blog that I would enjoy for myself and could creatively express myself. I wanted this blog to be somewhere I can talk about my life outside of teaching as well as an outlet for writing. I do enjoy writing very much and have not been able to write for a while now. Once I started that teaching blog, I wanted to write more about differen...

Hello everybody, welcome. I’ve decided to dedicate this post as an attempt to let you dear reader get to know myself, the writer, a bit more. I’m gonna be talking out about 11 facts about who I am as a person. If any of that interests you then feel free to stick around, get yourself a nice cup of tea or your preferred beverage, and enjoy! Friendly warning though, this post may be a bit longer than most, but I hope you guys still enjoy it.  1) I am majoring in Elementary Education and minoring in Special Education. I know the first thought and questions most people have when I tell them my major is around the lines of do I understand how much little money there is in being a teacher. To that, I must say that I have more of a passion for teaching and this yearning for it. I know I won’t be a millionaire in this field but I’ve been inspired. Throughout my time in the K-12 system, I have had teachers that changed my life. They helped me when I needed it most and their example has led m...

Everyone has been dealing or coping with everything that has been going on recently. What are the ways that I have coped?  Personally, my typical day in my life during this Quarantine time as of Early May 2020. Day to Day is usually myself and my significant other will play a video game together after he is done with work. We will play until the game until late into the night until it is early morning. It also does not also help that he usually works until around 12 a.m. After we are done playing a game we usually sleep for most of the day until he has to get up and get ready for work. I would stay in bed for a little while longer and sometimes falling back to sleep for a little bit longer. When I was awake still in bed, I would spend a few hours a night working on schoolwork do to my University transitioning online for classes and not living in the dorms anymore. We transitioned to online learning at the end of March right end after Spring Break here in the United States and the s...

I have not posted in a minute. Why have I been gone off this blog so long it for a few reasons. I have been gone because I have been really busy with school because everything went online and had more work than I did before or at least it felt like it at least. I  also had to deal with quickly moving out of my dorm at my university that I am currently attending at the end of spring break in mid-March. The COVID-19  has been causing a bit more stress than before it became a pandemic. I also am not able to currently work because of the lack of jobs do to most everything being close, restricted hours, and/or not able to have many employees at the moment. I also have had some issues trying to figure out what I want to write about. I have a few ideas of want I want to do for the next few months. I am feeling more motivated recently to write more and got more blog ideas coming up.  I know it has been a stressful time for everyone and I have been trying to figure out ways to try...
