This is to anyone else who wants to tell me I"m crazy. Don't waste your breath. IF you need me to be more blunt : Shut it. I am not going to listen to you.Don't you think I knew EXACTLY what I was getting into when I signed up for this? And if I didn't I would now after every time I tell someone my major they say "Wow, you're crazy I couldn't do that." or "Geeze, good luck finding a job." Lately many people - mostly my own family that is supposed to be supportive - have been telling me to change my major. I'll never find a job. I'm stupid and crazy. In no uncertain terms. Someone even set up a meeting with a superintendent. Nice huh? He could help me get a job. nope. It's just so he can tell me I'm stupid and crazy and to get out. Well guess what. I'm paying out my ass and working myself silly to pay for this crazy expensive college. Why? Because it's the best in the country for education majors. Because it has had 100% job placement EVERY YEAR i've attended. Why should that be different next year? I've been called to this. There is NOTHING else I want to do. I am a very intelligent person. Don't you think I am capable of doing something that earns much more money? But I don't want to, this is what I am called to do. In the words of the teacher in whose 4th grade classroom I taught this year "You are a natural. Not many experienced teachers are as capable. It's like you were born to do this." Yes she said that. No it's not an over exaggeration. I am one of the best in my class. I was told so in those exact words by one of the toughest and most respected education professors at Malone. I don't like to brag, flaunt my grades or my comments from teachers but apparently everyone thinks i am going to fail. I am very capable. I'm going to the best school where everyone finds a job. Not an over exaggeration. A fact, call the education department - ask them. So seriously. Shove it. I'm not gonna stop what I"m doing and I'm tired of people who are supposed to support me being the ones bringing me down. Oh - and WHEN i get a job. I will rub it in your faces mercilessly.
That's all.

You go girl! I think it's good to be a little crazy. Because the only people who can make their dreams come true are the ones who are crazy enough to think it's possible. Good luck with the rest of your schooling. I wish you plenty of success and happiness in your future career! =)
