Random rants and ramblings...

Does anyone else look back on the “you” of yesteryear and think “Wow, I feel so much improved since then! What a loser I was!”? I always feel as though I am improving myself as a person and becoming more confident and knowledgeable. I suppose this is partially because I make an effort to learn and grow, and partially just because I am getting more life experience and “growing up” I guess.

Since I just started posting here more frequently, I read some of the older things I wrote. I really did sound like a whiny teenager. Or maybe I just felt the need to pour my emotions out. Which is perfectly fine—this is a blog, after all. I just feel silly that I wrote so much whining about relationships gone wrong and all of my confusion. But that was me then. It’s interesting to know what my mind was thinking at a certain point.

This is me now. Taking life a day at a time, slightly nervous about what the future of student teaching and graduating holds at the same time, in an honest wonderful relationship that puts a smile on my face every day and makes me a better person, finally learning how to make a difference that will help me in my career, still adjusting to the move back home and commuting to Kent, balancing hobbies with school, trying to survive on little money… Oh, life!
