Turning a new leaf!

Happy New Year!  I hope this year brings employment success, financial stability, and a wonderful wedding :)

I was searching for jobs maybe a week or two ago, and found a program that is based in Chicago, that allows an already certified teacher to earn their Master's in Urban Education, as long as you promise to teach in a CPS Turnaround school for four years following your one year "residency".  So, I figured I had nothing to loose and looked into the program a little more and finally filled out an application.  The only thing I have left to do is complete two essays and a short video clip. 

Doing something like this is totally unlike anything I would do.  I would love to just get into a school district like anyone else, but that hasn't seemed to work out yet.  So, why not do something that will push me in a better direction?  And why couldn't I do this?  I can :)

So, my resolution for this year, along with loosing weight for the wedding, is to be more proactive and in charge of my life.  I am refusing to let anyone get in the way of me bettering myself and career. 

Here's to hoping this year will bring about change and success in my life and career!  So excited for 2012!
