New Year, New Me
I don't have a lot of time to write today because I need to prepare my lesson plans for tomorrow and print out semester exam reviews, but I thought I would update on how my new year is starting off. I visited my friend Lori at her salon the other day and got an awesome new haircut and new color. She and I decided that I should go darker and redder with my hair. I have to say I love the way it turned out! It is a deep auburn type of color and it makes my complexion look a lot better than it had been looking lately with my faded highlights. I really feel that highlights on me are a summer/spring thing only.
So, I have a new haircut and it came at a great time because lately I feel like a new person. I attended an orientation weekend last weekend for my Rotary Group Study Exchange program to Germany and I am really excited and very proud of my self. I was able to truly understand what an awesome opportunity I have been given and how much this is going to affect my future career in education. I also met a lady who does my dream job and made a great contact for advice on how to get there. My dream job, by the way, is Director of Study Abroad at a university.
I am reinvigorated in my job right now and it feels great. I think that the Zumba club sponsorship has also had a big influence on my feelings toward my job lately as well. I really feel like I am doing something meaningful and that I am making at least a small difference in the lives of teenagers.
It's really early to say, but I am pretty sure 2011 is going to be just as good or better than 2010. :)
Salud!! (Cheers!)

Yay Aunt K-K! Way to have a career goal ... I've been thinking a lot lately about how I need one of those. I love the color. It looks awesome. Isn't that my shirt you're wearing? ;)
Thanks, Mer. Actually, it is my shirt. I bought it at Old Navy like 3 years ago. I do have a lot of your shirts though, and I wear them often!
