Yikes! It has been almost 3 years since I've logged into this account..Well to be quite honest, I'm not really good with updating any of my social media platforms..My Instagram has like 3 pictures, I don't even remember my Twitter password, and I have an on-and-off relationship with Tumblr..But now I have so much time so I thought I would get back into blogging and interacting with other bloggers.
Quick Update:
- I graduated 2 years ago with a Bachelors in Child Psychology (my last post here was back when I was still a Sophmore in college..!)
- I had my first "real" job as an Assistant Teacher at a preschool in NYC but had to leave after only a year because of health issues
- After I quit my job, I moved back home to my parents and have been sleeping in, catching up on my reading and tv shows, and just been really, really taking advantage of my unemployment by being LAZY (cough cough I mean resting obviously because of my health issue and all..)
- But secretly, I've been applying to Teach for America and didn't really tell anyone about it because I didn't want to stir up hope and disappoint my parents if I didn't get accepted because they're already disappointed that I'm not working at a big, fancy corporation.
They gave up their dreams of me becoming a doctor or lawyer years ago and have been really adamant about their disapproval of my decision to work with children. But I know my calling is with children and specifically with a lower-income population so I probably won't be making 6 figures (sorry mom and dad!) but I know I'll be rich in heart.

I've been back home for the summer for 3 weeks now, but it feels like eternity already! No wonder people say college is the best 4 years of your life; I just want to go back!!! Of course I love seeing my family, but 3 months of doing nothing was only fun back in high school...Get a job you say? All I can say is I'm jealous of my friends who found a summer job/internship. Sometimes I wonder...why didn't I get the job at Target? Toys R' Us? And I didn't even try to apply at Hollister because they wanted 'cool and good looking people' and I didn't want to put my self-esteem on the line. I mean I did find a job now, but it just made me really nervous now that I'm closer to graduation and having to find a 'real' job.

twist
I remember i was scared, anxious, just waiting to be over with it. Did i even get butterflies in my stomach? Hmm.. i dont think so. It was something i had to do, so might as well go in and do it with some blind courage or 'i dont care' attitude, right? Part that frightened me was when this old doctor came and said he'll insert a shot into my neck to freeze my arm. My neck?! I think I literally grabbed my neck in horror. But turns out, he stuck them (three) in when i was out. But before, I was escorted to the surgery room in socks and i said i had to pee (i didnt NEED to but what if i needed to when i was knocked out or after i woke up and was in pain). i got to look around inside and everything was so..sterile..My hair covering was pretty neat. I went into the surgery room and of course that big alien looking light you see in movies over the bed or whatever freaked me out. i wish they anthesiated me before taking me in there..but i got to experience it so i guess it was pretty cool. I lied down, they talked to me like how i fell and school, i liked the little asian lady, and the old doc is back and put in the iv, EW HURT, then he said soemthing about putting in the anthesia in my iv, and i was talking or thinking or i dont even remember but next thing i know, im waking up, drowsy and duhhhh. I couldnt think straight or open my eyes fully but i remember my doc? asking me if i was in pain. I wasnt in pain but i felt discomfort and tugging at my shoulder so i just pointed. and i think he said he was going to put something in my iv and i slept again. When i woke up again, i couldnt see my hand so i thought i lost it..

Surgery
According to my doctor, my surgery went perfect and I should be 100% back to normal in one year..The scar is hideous and the xray of the plates/pins in my leg are as hideous. I'm dreading the physical therapy sessions but..what can i do?

can we pretend
Can we pretend that airplanes in the night sky are like shooting stars
I could really use a wish right now, wish right now, wish right now

I could really use a wish right now, wish right now, wish right now
