With 24 creeping up and dating a guy who actually aspires to do something in life, the future has been on my mind more often than not. I find myself worrying about career choices I thought were concrete and wondering what state I will be in. More ways than one. The uncertainty of what lies ahead is a scary thing but also exciting. I am anxious to see what the future holds. Who will be in my life? What I will be doing? Where I will be living?.. All questions that I have been on my mind recently.

With calls into a couple school choices, this is becoming real. While I love doing hair and it is my passion, I believe I am ready to try something new. Within a few years, I would like to be in a different state, living on my own and teaching children. I have never been so sure and I know that this guy has been such an amazingly positive influence in my life already. I may not have revisited the idea of going back to school right now if he was not in my life. For that and him, I am so grateful.
