Blog Assignment 1
Hi, my name is Brianne Woods. I am twenty one years old and I am from Mobile, Alabama. I graduated from Faith academy and I am currently a student at the University of South Alabama. I am majoring in Elementary Education and I absolutely love it because I think that kids are the coolest people on the planet. I can’t wait until the day when I finally get to stand in my classroom and teach kids something new. Nothing is more rewarding to me than having the opportunity to teach a child how to read or write. So, needless to say, I am super excited about becoming an elementary teacher.
In my spare time I love to shop and hang out with my boyfriend. I love to travel, and I hope to one day be able to go to France. I have an unhealthy addiction to cotton candy and cotton candy ice cream and I love to watch Alabama Football.
God has blessed me with the best family that anyone could ever ask for; I have the most awesome parents ever. I have an older brother and a sister who is the same age as me. If it were not for my family, I do not know what I would do, life would be so boring. I have been dating my best friend for one year now. Levi is such an amazing guy and I could not have asked for a more perfect boyfriend. We plan to get married after we both finish college.
During the summer I work as a counselor with a camp called Wild Week, a Christian youth camp based out of Texas. I have a huge passion for helping girls who are going through hard time and God has allowed me to serve and minister to girls who need help through Wild Week. It is really awesome.
The most important thing to me in life is my personal relationship with Jesus Christ. I am just an average girl who messes up every day, but I have been saved by God’s grace. I’m not perfect, and I never will be, but every day I try to be more and more like the perfect one. If it were not for the Lord, there is no telling where I would be today.
The video on time management was very interesting. The thing that stood out the most to me that Randy Pausch suggested was: when you have a list of things to do, always do the most difficult thing first. He used the example of having to eat three frogs and how you should always eat the largest one first. I think that information can be very helpful to me this semester because I often find it can be hard to motivate myself, especially when some of my tasks seem particularly complicated.
