Getting back to blogging

For the past year or so I have updated my blog with random messages or things that I have found on the internet. There has been no timeline I have been keeping up with but my blog has been something that I have missed. I'm not sure if it was being able to keep track of what I was doing, for myself, or being able to let others keep up with what I was doing. Either way, I hadn't completely forgotten about my blog. And now that I am traveling again I miss writing my blog even more. My blog is another journal but for whatever reason I write it in a different format than my hardcopy/personal journal.

So let me backtrack just a bit...

Part of my reason for traveling the first time around, in SE Asia, was that I had dropped out of school and didn't know what I wanted to do with my life. I didn't figure out what I DID want to do on that trip, however, I did figure out what I didn't want to do - and that was teach. It only took me half way through my trip to figure this out. Better now that after finishing a teaching program. So with that in mind, I spent a total of three years out of school before finally figuring out that I didn't know what I wanted to study, but that I did want to get a degree in something and I wanted it sooner rather than later. So i jumped back into school with an idea in mind of what i wanted to study but more importantly with the determination that this time i was going to finish my degree no matter what. In the end, it only took me a little over a year to finish my degree. I changed my mind a month into school after realizing that it didn't matter that I got a degree in if I still didn't know what I wanted to do after school. So, I did it! I can now say that I am a college graduate. And because I have FINALLY finished school I am celebrating with a three week trip to Greece thanks to my parents. And yes, they have come along too to celebrate.

So we will see how long blogging lasts...
