| a new adventureso i figured its time for an update since some stuff has happened to me as of recently. my last blog showed that i was really confused about my major and wasnt sure if it was right for me etc etc etc. well i am so excited to say that i have figured it out. i am no longer a children's ministry major. i was sitting in homiletics with watson a few weeks ago and i just started crying because being there didnt make me feel right. i knew down in my gut that the ministry wasnt for me. this thought totally freaked me out because all i have known ever since i was a sophomore in high school was that i was going to be a pastor. so i carried along with my day and it was sucky and i ended up crying in childrens homiletics as well. but i came back to my room and cried and yelled and had a nice little swearing fit because i was so frustrated and lost and alone and scared. i had to go to work, but when i came back i had a long discussion with my mom and i decided that i wasnt in the ministry for myself, i was in it because that is people said i would always be good at. so i decided that i am going to do something for myself. psychology has always been an interest to me, it is my minor. i am always fascinated and intrigued by why we are the way we are and all that jazz. for awhile, i have been planning on getting my masters in child psychology. so i decided to switch my major over to psychology and i am feeling so good about it. it seems like a huge cloud lifted off me. i know that i am doing something that i am so intiruged in and that excites me so hardcore. i am planning on becoming either a child psychologist, a clinical child psychologist, or a school psychologist! even just writing it gets me excited! because i am combining my 2 biggest passions...kids and pysch...and oh that makes me so happy! im still staying at NCU and amazingly enough i will graduate the same year! its so exciting and i am so super excited to see where the world of psychology will take me! so thats basically an update of my life, nothing really new, just enjoying life and gorgeous minneapolis! so until next time... | | |
| this summer has been a summer of making a lot of decisions. decisions that will change my life. this whole year has been wear and tear on me. i went through stuff this year that really changed a lot in my life, a lot more for the good, but they werent changes that were easy to make. i am reconsidering my major and i am entering my junior year with a lot of homiletics and pastoral theology classes, so i feel that i need to make up my mind fairly soon, otherwise its a waste of money to take classes that may not even go to my degree. i love kids, but sometimes i dont feel like i fit in the "children's minstry" world. all of the other children's ministry majors are so out there, in a good way, way out going, kinda hyper and all that and sometimes i feel like i dont fit in. i know everyone is different, but there is still a part of me that thinks that a children's pastor needs to be all those things. i still dont know if i want to be a children's pastor because everyone thought i would be great at it or if its what i really want to do. and i dont know if this questioning of my major has anything to do with the stuff i have been going through the past few months or if this is something i'm not supposed to do. i have been doing a lot of photography lately and i love it. it is so fun, but expensive and i have been thinking of changing my major to that, but then unfortunatly i would have to switch schools. i love north central and i dont think i would want to go anywhere else, i couldnt dream of being roommates with anyone but danelle, but if i decide to do photography, then i would probly go to the U of M, still in the cities, but not NCU. sometimes i think of what my life would be as a professional photographer and sometimes it feels like that job wont fit me either. there are so many things i need to find out about myself before i need to make these decisions. as of right now, i plan on going back to NCU in the fall and maybe by being back there, it will help me decide on what i want to do.
on a different, not so ho-hum note....my summer has been a good time of good times and relaxing! my friends nick and brock both have motorcycles and i have been a frequent passenger on both bikes, its so great! nick has a 2006 honda cxr 600 black crotch rocket, its a hot bike and so fun to ride! we are taking a motorcycle trip to the dells this weekend, im very excited about it! my nursing home job is good, old people are fun! i have been such a freak about country music lately too, its my new love! :) i saw pirates 2 at a midnight showing and it was so incredible! johnny is holy frickin hot, as usual. i got a new poster of him for my room and i might get a blanket with his face on it! how fun is that! i have seen todd a couple times this summer and it has been really great. i went to port on the 4th and it was so fun! walking on the beach at sunset, playing in the water, singing a whole new world, fireworks off lake michigan, it was great! :)
so there we go, an update on my life, as of right now. Until next time... | | |
