somehow, I got an opportunity to get a ‘97 Altima for $700! I’ve saved for it, and now, after about a year and a half without a car, driving myself will again be a possibility. Thank goodness. I am kind of nervous to start driving again, especially in congested areas, but I am eager to be independent again. I am a bit concerned about car insurance, but I found an affordable rate online, so it should work out once I get a job over the summer. This goal should be achieved at the end of the month when I actually buy the car! :)

How I did it: I knew way more than I thought I knew...especially on the passages on which you had to label who wrote them or what they were called, etc. The grammar part was a bit tricky, but I ended up getting a 182 when the requirement for my certification is 160! :) I JUMPED AND SCREAMED with joy around the house for quite a while because of the relief of passing the test. Thank goodness. Now I can be a teacher!!!! Read how I did it…
How I did it: In the beginning of Jog, Run, Race my personal goal was to get through an entire class workout without needing to stop and walk. Oh, how far I’ve come. I had run the 5K back in October, and needed to find another race to run, so Jess, who is typically my running buddy in class, and I decided that we would sign up for a race together. We searched for a 10k without much luck, so we tossed around the idea of tackling a ten-miler. We we… Read how I did it…

I’m in Puerto Rico for TWO MONTHS student teaching on a military base! The opportunity sort of fell into my lap and I can’t believe that I’m actually doing it as I type this. Things really can happen if you set your mind to them!
last day of classes ever for my bachelor’s degree today!
fun nights in NYC
reconnecting with old friends
new friends that provide encouragement
sunshine
no work tonight or tomorrow
new music
mint chocolate swirl cookies
one week until winter break
student teaching in Puerto Rico :)
