- Like I said, there have been a lot of changes in my life, some of which I've chosen, some of which I haven't. I'm no longer teaching full time, but I've found ways to keep teaching languages in rewarding ways. I teach kids French and Spanish classes (and have a fancy website--take a look)--when I have enough students. I'm definitely not a salesperson, a fact that keeps becoming more and more apparent! I also tutor: one-on-one as well as at a inpatient treatment program for teenage girls. I love working with teenagers and am glad to have the chance to again--I also work with just a handful of students at a time, which is much less overwhelming than a classroom of 35. It's a good job.
- I'm back in school, this time at Salt Lake Community College working on prerequisites to apply to the University of Utah's occupational therapy program. My degree didn't require math and science, so I'm making up for that now. Right now has kind of turned out to be a period of self-discovery, so I just may decide on a new direction, like, tomorrow. But occupational therapy is the current plan.
- Along with tutoring and kids language classes, I have a couple of other odd jobs, one of which is working on the website and writing the blog for my dad's vet clinic. I mentioned that I have a standard poodle, Ditto, and I've had a good time writing about him or other pet-related topics (like Salt Lake County's canine mayoral race). Take a look!
I think that covers some of the big changes. I'll try to keep posting--like on how I'm actually making progress on a quilt (who would have thought).
