Blog 6

I went home this weekend for my sister’s National Charity League presents. She’s a senior in High School, I’m really excited for her! I got to see my family, including my grandmother and my uncle, both of whom I haven’t seen for a long time. My sister came down from UC Irvine for the event as well, and it was really nice to see her too! She told me she might be staying in Irvine this summer which would make me really sad! I’d miss her a lot.

This week is going to be really busy for me, because I’m going to be training for a new job I just got that involves teaching autistic children. I am extremely excited to be starting this job! I love working with children, and it falls along the career path I’m pursuing, which is social work. I’m thrilled to have this opportunity. I’ve taught swim lessons the past three summers, and I’ve learned a lot from working with so many children. They can teach you so many things that adults can’t. I know this job will be very challenging, but I know it will be rewarding as well. I’m also excited because it’s almost spring quarter!

  1. I'm glad you got to see your family. I am very close to my family too! And that is so cool that you are interested in social work. I am interested in foster care which definitely lies along those lines.

  2. Sounds like you have a great weekend. For me, my parents gave me a surprise visit over the weekend. It was kinda uncomfortable showing them my messy room ,but it sure feels good. It is really awesome what you are doing right now, and your career goal, too. Keep up the good work.
