New Blogger :)

I've decided to copy everyone else and start a blog :). I figure its a good way to keep a "journal" since I haven't written in one for years. My life right now is pretty crazy; I'm experiencing a lot of new and exciting things that I want to keep track of. Also, I thought this would be a convenient way for family and friends to see what I'm up too since I never find time to talk to everybody..... A little about me- I'm 18 and about to start college in 7 weeks. I'm extremely excited and a little nervous for classes to begin. I will be majoring in special education which is awesome. I already just want to skip ahead four years and become a teacher.   Recently I started a new job in retail. So far it's been really fun and I'm working with a lot of really cool people including my best friend. Being away from home has been a whole new, nerve-racking adventure but I'm absolutely loving every minute of it. I have learned so much about myself from the little bit of time being on my own and I wouldn't give up any of hardships that have gotten me this far.  I miss Pa and my family a lot. I wish I could combine Idaho and PA together so I can have all the things I love in one place :)... Well this is the end of my first blog. Hopefully this will become a frequent thing to keep everyone updated and informed.
