We Back!

After two years of feeling lost post undergrad, we finally have a direction folks! I'm so excited that I got into an English Master's program set to start this upcoming fall. Additionally, I got a Teaching Assistantship, so I'll be teaching undergraduate College Composition this year as well!

To go from teaching high school English to College Composition virtually overnight is pretty wild. I'm excited because with this program, I will be the primary instructor for this course-- not a TA listed under another professor. I'm so excited to begin this opportunity in a few short weeks!

What does that mean for this blog? I'll finally be back! I'll actually have a reason to bullet journal, study, take notes, and lesson plan. For those of y'all who have stuck around for this journey even through my extended hiatuses-- thank you. Super excited to get back into the studyblr community <3

Pick a new year’s resolution, warning this is a legally binding agreement and if I’m 2024 you don’t do what you pick, you will be fined twenty five cents

Procure an accessory so flamboyant it makes people do a visible double take

Learn to identify at least one local plant

Buy a canvas. Paint the canvas. Hang the canvas. That’s art, baby!

Set the fanciest table you can. Wear your nicest clothes. Eat cheap takeout.

Memorize a poem. Length is up to you.

Skip a rock across a body of water at least four times

Watch a movie from the year you were born

Throw out something you bought with high hopes and have never used

Donate to a charity your favorite character would support

Edit a neglected Wikipedia article

Instead of buying a plant, get weirdly over-invested in a particular local shrub

Cloud gaze until you see one that for sure no question looks just like a horse

One thing I’m so incredibly grateful for that came from my undergrad experience is the lasting relationships I created with professors. One of my professors, who has now turned into a friend, called me tonight just to talk for an hour. I’m at a weird in between place in my life right now, and I feel a little lost and dejected. I couldn’t even tell you how many times that woman told me she was proud of me. It meant the world.

Cheers to the profs that care

Same prof called me again a couple of nights ago, I’m feeling much the same, and she once again gave me so much love and support. Caring educators do so much y’all.

I studied for 6 hours today. It feels so good to study. I wish for academia to take over my life and consume me. I want to be a workaholic.

Update 2/25/23 *long post warning*

So far, I've heard back from two of the grad schools I applied to. I was denied by both in the same day-- it hit me pretty hard. I have yet to hear from two more schools, but I'm feeling extremely discouraged.

In other news, I finally paid for my teaching license, so I am certified to teach English 6-12! It's nice finally having the money to say I am licensed.

With my confidence a little wounded, I'm taking this opportunity to reevaluate. As it stands, I don't think grad school is in the cards for me for fall of 2023. That begs the question.. what is?

I've kept in touch with several of my professors, whom I now consider friends. One of my professors, informed me about a position opening at my alma mater in the office of Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion. In this position, I believe I would still be some kind of teacher, but I would be going around to local secondary schools (including the one I student taught at) and assisting students from a variety of backgrounds to adjust to and feel comfortable and successful in a school environment. This possibility actually greatly excites me. I really miss my college town, my life, and my friends-- some of whom are still in town there. I also love the idea of getting to work with students, make meaningful connections, while also not having my own classroom to be in and manage 24/7. This feels like a solid compromise to me.

While that position is exciting, nothing is certain right now. Additionally, I am also starting to explore other degrees I could potentially pursue, which is daunting after being stuck on an English PhD for so long.

If you stuck around this long, thanks for listening. I feel like I've hit a crucial crossroads in my life, and I'm trying to be excited for whatever is coming ahead. Sending all the good vibes to y'all <3
