Summer Trip Planning

      This summer, before I begin graduate school I want to take a trip somewhere that maybe not many people want to go to. I want to go to Florida to the Harry Potter amusement park. I know that it sounds dorky probably to you, but I have grown up reading these books, living in this world, and it would be amazing to go to a place that is all about Harry Potter.
      My brother's girlfriend and I are thinking about all meeting down there this summer, and going to the theme park for a few days. My brother, his girlfriend, my husband, and I all love Harry Potter probably too much! haha. But it would be a great way to get to see them again, and it would be a way for my husband and I to go down to Florida again and see the Harry Potter museum and rides and shops!!
      They have a special going right now that if you plan a trip for 4 nights you can stay at a hotel on the park for like $278! I think that is very affordable. The only problem is the flight, whether or not that will be affordable once we really start planning this trip. I also really hate to plan ahead, because there are so many things that can go wrong! But I am very excited, and want to get planning soon so that I can save up enough money to go! It would be an awesome trip! Devan and I plan on taking some trips like these before we have kids, so that once we do have kids we don't feel like we can't do anything.
     Well, I am excited and ready to go now! haha But, it'll have to wait for the summer!

Everything Happens For a Reason, I hope!

Just recently, I was turned down for the Teach For America position, that I spent long months applying and preparing for. I can't say that I wasn't disappointed to read the generic "Sorry you did not get it" letter they sent me. It was hard to see my dream of working for Teach For America, and finally being a teacher get dashed, especially with a generic letter. I really had a great feeling about the process, and left the interview feeling like I nailed it. I guess that I didn't impress like I thought I did. I broke down at first from the shock that I didn't get my dream job, and then I cried because I realized how badly I did want it, and how wrong I had been. Later that night I talked to my mom about what had happened, she knew I was upset about missing this opportunity and offered some advice. She said like so many do, "Everything happens for a reason." At first I was annoyed, because I feel that so many people use this logic as a cop-out. But, as...

So Lost...

For so long I have been focused on getting a full time job, and now that I have that I am once again focusing on my future. Questions just keep plaguing me like: "What am I going to be doing in a year?" "Will I go to grad school?" "Will I get a teaching job?" "Will I stay at my current job?" "Will I get another job somewhere?" And now I just can't seem to get these questions out of my head. I feel so lost.  I don't know what to do, where to apply, how to find new opportunities. Ever since I was a little kid, I have been striving for something. Whether it's doing well in sports each season, or getting good grades at the end of the year, getting Top 10 of my class, and then graduating high school, then it was doing well in college, finding a good major, and then graduating. Now that I am done with all that, I am finding that it's hard for me not to feel a little lost, lonely, confused, and without purpose. Once I discove...
