Here Goes Nothing

Well, I guess I've finally taken the plunge. Who would've thought? I've never really been one to share my thoughts with other people, via the internet. Reserved I suppose you could call it. Just so that everyone knows, I will be trying this, an experiment if you will, to see how I like it. If I can't keep up with it, well then, it's kinda a give-it-your-best-effort sort of deal. Right now I have plans to post photography projects on here as well as keep it as a blog for my most personal thoughts. Ha. But as my friend so clearly pointed out about herself while having this discussion about starting blogs, "I know myself too well and I get bored easily and I have committment issues". That about sums it up.

But for now, let's give it the good old fashioned try! My name is Michelle, I'm currently 21, living in a ridiculously small town. Not that it's a bad thing, but sometimes I feel trapped. Plus, all the kids I know and grew up with are still in school. I think the last time they did the census they said that the population of 18-24 yr olds was  like 5%. What kind of good odds are those? It doesn't help when you've had at least 20 people you know get married in the past 2 years. Then you really start to wonder.

But that's a soapbox of mine. I'm a full-time teacher. I teach 4th grade at the moment, at our local private school. I have 10 kids in my class. That might seem like nothing, but they can definitely be a handful! Thank God we're on Easter Break at the moment. But I think my idea that it's ok to take an Easter break and then another whole week off to go to California will backfire eventually. See, I'm an organizer. I can't help it. And leaving my class in the hands of someone who is, albeit qualified, they're not me.

Anyway. Here's to trying. We'll see how it goes!
