So, this is it?

Alright, here I am, trying to figure out how exactly one starts a blog...hmmm. Well I guess I'll just go with it and see what I come up with. I figured I would give this a try not just for everyone else but for myself. All to often I don't realize what exactly is going on in my life, so I figured if I blogged and actually kept up on what is going on I couldn possible see where my life was headed and how I'm getting there. First off my name is Mishaun and I am a U of O alumn doing absolutely nothing with my degree right now. I am currently slinging pasta at the Olive Garden and still trying to figure out why I'm still there with a four year degree. Well truth be told I can't do anything that I would like to do with my degree. I still need two years of school and being accepted to graduate school seems to be getting in my way, I never realized how hard and frustrating it would be, but here I am, just waiting it seems like. I stay at the Olive Garden because of flexibility. I can pretty much pick my own schedule within reason and can easily get time off when I need it. Who can beat that right? Most the people I work with are pretty kick ass and my management isn't half bad either, so I will keep slinging that pasta I suppose until I can actually start doing what I really want. What exactly is that you say? Speech-Language pathology. I have always found the aspect of communication systems extremely intriguing. I also love children and want a lot of time of...so combine those three things and you get a Speech-Language Pathologist. So hopefully by the year 2011 I will be done with all this restaurant mambo-jambo and will be moving on the bigger and better things. Currently I am volunteering at the Eugene Hearing and Speech center in a preschool language development classroom. I absolutely love it. I pretty much go in once and week and kick it with little kids for hours. On Monday's I babysit my boyfriends nephew and I'm pretty sure he's the coolest little kid there is. Monday's have slowly become one of my favorite days of the week because I love kickin it with the little guy and taking him on adventures. It's crazy how fast they grow. Anyway, If I keep going I'm never going to stop and before you know it you will have my whole life stories, even the not so interesting details, so as of now I am going to sign off and when I come up with something interesting to say that won't put you to sleep I will offer it up for you all to read! Until then take care!
