This is the famous first entry, I don't know why a lot of people try to enter something "insightful" as their "first entry." It's as if they all think "Oh my, if I don't make an AWESOME first entry nobody will want to read my blog." Blogs shouldn't be for other people, they should be for yourself. Something that gives you pleasure, to jot down and write about whatever it is that's going on in your life.
I'm nothing other than ordinary. I just graduated college with my art degree and now I'm teaching art at Perry County High School. Art is so much of who I am as a person. It's been a vital part of my life since I could walk. It's probably one of the only things I've stuck with throughout all the years of my life. You will learn more about my life as an artist.
And I am in love with Jesus. He's the reason for everything I do-- I'm learning each and every single day to trust Him with EVERYTHING I have. He's blessed me so much this year. I've received a job teaching in the county with the highest unemployment rate in the state of Tennessee, and it's fifth in the nation. Talk about all the crazy places to get a job eh? This is my first year as a teacher and the Lord has really broken my heart for these high schoolers. They are all precious in their own ways-- even the ones that make me want to pull my hair out at the end of the day. I've really grown attached to them in a way I never thought I would. It's a blessing to teach them about something I love so much.
So this turned out to be a little longer than I anticipated. But it's all good. They say the dreadful "first entry" is the worst. It's a breeze from here on out. :)
