What I Want To Do.

People struggle on figuring out what it is they want to do with their life. Growing up, I've ALWAYS had a top three.
Little Girl
1. Teacher- I love to learn, and seeing my mom help kids at my school made me want to do the same.
2. Wedding Designer- Wedding gowns! Loved how they were designed and created.
3. Dancer- I loved to dance!

Teenager
1. Teacher- Never Changed.
2. Wedding Coordinator- I gave up drawing, turned out I can't even draw stick figures. But I LLOOVVEE weddings! Ask anyone, that's my passion. From the beginning of people falling in love to saying their "I DOS" I love it!
3. I narrowed it down to 2.

Present
I figured, why not do both! It's been done before, people having more than 1 set career. I know I can do it.
- I want to go to school to get my certificate to plan events (mainly weddings) =)
I'd like to work with a well known company and get my name across all the wedding magazines! To plan everything from colors, to flowers, to music etc. etc. etc. That's what I know how to do!
- Depending on how that goes (years later that is) I'd like to go back to get my degree in Teaching. Just to impact one child's life would mean that I've helped change the world in a positive way.

A New Beginning...

Here it goes...

A year has passed since I graduated, and a lot is happening and finally beginning.
- As of next month, Brent and I are moving out on our own (with our lovely roommate Rebecca)
- I have several interviews next week and I'm crossing my fingers all goes well.
- I'm going to school in the Fall! I took my year off, and I'm ready to go back.

To be continued...

Accomplishments!

Where do I begin...

It all started when I was just little girl...
Growing Up
-- I had a minor speech impediment problem. I had trouble saying certain letters of the alphabet. I accomplished overcoming that, and worked on making it better, with the help of my mom.
Note: How I got my nickname "Flee." I couldn't say my uncles name Chris, instead I said Piss, so he started calling me Flee and it stuck with me since.
-- I was diagnosed with hypothyroid. Long story short, hypothyroid means you have a slower metabolism rather than "normal." I struggled with weight gain and losing weight drastically growing up. These past few years, it's been under control and I'm proud of myself.

School
-- I graduated! That was only the first step to actually starting my life.
