Right now I am a freshman at UVU studying Behavioral Science, but that is about to change….
I started school dead set on finishing school in 4 years no matter what it took, and that meant not taking any time off to work, do training, or anything else…even if that was not what was best for me..
Well, now I know what is best for me, and right now what is best for me is taking a year off of school and taking on a training program instead…
Blindness training is the best option for me right now as I continue to loose my vision. I need to learn the rest of my braille, my cane travel, and technology! If I want to be successful not only in college, but in the rest of my life, then I know I need training…even if it is hard to accept right now
After this semester, I will leave UVU and Orem behind, and I will move to the Salt Lake DSBVI and start my training. The exact start date hasn't been set yet, as there are things in my life that have to play out before I start. I will either be starting in June or August!
This new adventure will be challenging, and as scared as I am to start, I know it is for the best and I am looking forward to the change.
So what does this mean for school? I'm only taking a year off! I WILL FINISH SCHOOL, I WILL HAVE A CAREER, AND I WILL BE SUCCESSFUL! This is just a bump in the road of becoming independent.
So now you all know what the next chapter of my life will consist of, and as scared as I am, I am also excited! I am staying in Utah because I know everyone here, and although that can be both good and bad, I need to stay here for right now.
Independence HERE I COME!! <3<3
