Hello out there!!!
Alright....so summer has blown by so far and life is great.
I turned 25 and had a big celebration with my girls. It was also a 6 month tumor free party. We got a limo and went to Federal Hill. It was a really fun and special night. I look forward to celebrating 1 year!!
As far as what is next for me, LIFE. I am moving into the next chapter of my life; separating a little from this whole cancer bit. It is hard and scary but I have to just jump in and accept whatever happens along the way. I know I have talked about not letting myself get too excited about anything and keeping somewhat of a wall up about my cancer; but how can I not move on and celebrate at a time like this. If something comes up we will deal with it and keep moving forward.
So what is this next chapter you ask......I will teach at a Catholic middle school down in Southern Maryland. I will be teaching PE to 4-8 graders, and science to 6-8 graders. I am extremely excited for this job.....and nervous as hell. I have never taught science, I love it, but how can I make sure that I am doing these kids justice. I hope that I learn fast and that there are many activities in the curriculum already that I can follow. I will also be coaching at a Catholic high school that is in Leonardtown. I will be the varsity coach and pretty much build the program from scratch. It is a situation where they have had a new coach every year for the past 4 years so there really isn't any structure or anything. This team will be my baby! I am excited for these challenges and only hope that my cancer understands how excited I am about moving on and accepts the fact that it can no longer be a part of my life. I need this.
I also got a new car...well somewhat. I purchased a 2003 Honda CR-V and I LOVE IT!!!! I have a new car, a new job (full-time)....and am really an adult now I guess.
So all in all, this will be a very exciting chapter and I can't wait to tell you all about it.
