get to know me

My make is Becca Schutte and I am a graduate of Chillicothe High School. I combined my junior and senior years online and graduated a year early. I will more than likely attend Ohio University Chillicothe for all four years to complete my degree. I want to major in early childhood education to become a preschool teacher. I will probably have a minor in special needs by the time I am through college.
I have been working part time at Hobby Lobby for over a year how to help pay for college. My grandparents are paying for my first year so I have another year to save up because college isn't free.
During fall quarter I am taking 17 credit hours along with working part time. I will stay heavily loaded in order to make sure that I can get into the education program this summer. I cannot wait until I am able to start working with kids and observing them.
Teaching has always been what I have wanted to do. I remember playing school with my grandma when I was little and making her do extra worksheets that I got from class that day. Children are my Passion and I can't wait to influence their lives and help them have the building blocks they need to move on in this world.
My mom worked in a child care center the whole time I grew up. I was always there playing with the kids or helping the teachers. I fell in love with it over the year and couldn't think of doing anything better in my life. Most people would think I would be sick of it from dealing with all the behind the scenes work it takes. I cannot wait to have a class of my own and plan activities for them to do. I can't wait to watch them grow I.to the personalities they have. Teaching is a special job because what better thing is there to walk into a room of young children that will put huge smiles on your face all day. Being able to be with them so young and to watch the thinking process and what goes through their mind is so entertaining to watch. Every child has a different reaction to something that might be the smallest thing in your eyes but the biggest in theirs. I cannot wait to finish these four years and to start being with kids as they grow in life. Watching them become the person you thought they would be and seeing them years later. The greatest accomplishment you could have is them coming to you years later and saying that you made an impact in their lives.

running

Why do we run from so much. We run from life, people, and anything else that might come in our way. We don't stop until we find a solution, and maybe not even then. We run our minds when we think, our mouths when we talk, and our legs when we walk. We are always on the go. From school to work and to eat. We don't have the time to just sit down and enjoy a moment of rest. If our legs are stopped our months are going, if our mouths aren't moving our fingers are typing. Our body needs time to relax. The only time it actually relaxes is when we are sleeping through the night. I'm going to make it my goal to start taking time out of the day to relax, and spend some time for myself.

equations

Life is like a math equation, the more variables you add in the harder it gets. When we were kids all we had to add together was our family and friends. As we get older we add in school, issues with friends, issues with boys, and anything else that might come in your way. Life gets harder as you grow. Just like when we were little all we had to do was add together 1+1, now we have to add 3x+5b+7z=y. more factors come into play which complicate your situation. Sometimes I wish that life still consisted of the 1+1 equations, where we don't have to think about the problems that play a huge role in our life. We have to plug in the right number to get the perfect solution. The end result should be happiness and the factors that add up can vary depending on your lifestyle. At the end of our lives we should come up with the perfect solution from trial and error as we go through our years

my mind is a million places right now

Why is it so hard to understand people? Their are so many ways to misjudge people by how they say something. They can come of as rude and sarcastic even if they are just trying to be nice and calm. It's even harder to understand how people are saying something through text or over the internet. Unless it is really obvious that they are upset or unless you really know them and how they talk you will never know how they mean to say something. There have been many times where I have almost gotten into arguements because either I or someone else has translated what was said the wrong way. Communication is taking a toll downwards. The easy access to phones and the internet is not helping at all. There would be less arguements if there wasn't such an easy access to these objects.

I don't understand how there are a million web sites and I can't find exactly what i'm looking for or at least anything close. I have to do an example essay and I can't figure out what exactly it is and what to write about. I have read the chapter in my book multiple times and I have been trying to find out online for the past hour. I can't find it. Maybe im just reading my sources wrong and it is all right in front of me. I am probably making it much harder than it actually is. I have a tendency to do that. I can think of the simplest objects or tasks to do and can't figure out what they are. This should be a no brainer essay but I can't wrap my finger around what exactly it is asking. It makes me mad thinking that everyone else understands what is it and I can't understand for the life of me.

With all of the websites that are easily accessed it can create problems. There are numerous websites where people can get seriously hurt from. Even though you can't get hurt physically over the internet you can get cyber bullied. There are a rare amount of sights that actually have a monitor on what you can and can't say. Facebook for example is one that doesn't. It makes it so easy to pick on someone. You can post anything you want to your wall even if it is about someone else. You can tag the person you are talking about in the post and it will show up on their page and everyone will know exactly who you are talking about where before unless you included their name it was a guessing game. You can send private messages that only that person would see so they would not have any help if things did get out of hand because no one would see it to speak up about anything. You can post nasty comments on pictures that people have posted that can hurt anybody no matter how strong you are. It's becoming a game to see how many others people can hurt. I don't like it. I don't think it is necessary to put it out for the world to see. Many times during an interview for a job the employeer can look up their social network sights and see the pictures they are tagged in or the posts on the wall. There could be a picture that you begged your friend not to put up but then you got in a fight and they uploaded it. That single picture could cost you your dream job. I would never want to destroy someone's dreams so I stay out of all of the drama. Formspring is another example of a sight that could destroy someone. You ask others anonymous questions so people don't know who is asking them. There can be some pretty harsh questions that people have asked just to make someone upset. Most of the times it works. There are so many kids who get cyberbullied and put a stop to it by ending their lives. There is no reason that people should push a kid to commit suicide. You can only bully a person so far until they reach their breaking point. I think that there should be a monitor set in place to control what people are saying on social media sights. There are so many people that can't see the light at the end of the tunnel because they are constantly getting knocked down. It's not the right thing to do. It's becoming a serious problem and nobody is putting a stop to it.

talking

Why is that everytime we have to speak on front of people we pause, stutter, and make a fool of ourselves. Yesterday i had to start prayer at my bible study and I was at a loss of words. I didn't know what to say. When I pray by myself i can do it for hours. Today I had to give a speech and i got really nervous. I can hold a conversation with anybody so why do I freeze in front of people? My guess is that I feel that they are judging me. That I'm going to fast or to slow. That I'm really boring. I don't know why I get that way. When I used to sing in front of people I would break out in hives. Maybe because I think people might say I'm a bad singer. I hate not pleasing people so that might be my problem. I guess I'll never know.

goals

Do we always follow our set goals or do we eventually trade them in for new ones? Every year we start out with a unique list of goals that we all want to accomplish for the start of the new year. We go strong for the first few weeks but after that we give up and the goals start to fall apart. What would happen of we all stuck to our goals. We would all be the ideal weight we want to be, our eating habits would be so much healthier, our job career or choice might be something that you are not doing now, all of our homework would be done on time, and we would all be 4.0 students. So what happens? Why do we fall short to achieve something that we once wanted. For me personally I get tired of doing the same things over and over again. I would switch it up everyday, which might help. Let's say we work out and do weights on day and cardio the next. It could make it easier to lose the weight, but you could lose track switching back and forth day after day. Goals are a hard task to stick to but that's why we set them. We dont set goals if they wouldn't be work, then it would just be an everyday task and would no longer be a goal. Goals are unique and special and we need to set more.

Priorities

What are priorities? Priorities are any thing that is regarded as more important than another. Mine consist of family, work, school, and my health for the main part. Sometimes though they change. I used to have my priorities set on soccer and singing but I eventually learned that they are not as important. Yesterday I should have spent more time working on schoolwork, reading, and working on my speech outline for my public speaking class but instead I spent time with my friend and went shopping around town. There have been many times when I have done something fun instead of serious, but how many people haven't?

People set priorities based on their lifestyles and how they were raised. I have a friend that would rather spend all of her money on clothes, make-up, and her new mustang rather than on an education, health check ups, and things to help better her life. I know many people who would do anything for their kids over doing something for themselves. When I have kids they will be my number one priority. They will be my life.

When I just googled priorities I found many different choices to choose from. I found the definition, some examples, but what struck me as interesting was pollingreport.com. On the website they take polls about political problems or issues. One of the questions they asked was "looking ahead, which of the following should be the highest priority for Congress after the election?" 38% answered by passing a new stimulus bill and 24% answered with cutting federal spending. The people want the economy's priority to cut the spending of money in the United States. Along with many money seems to be a big priority in their live and even though it helps it should not be the top priority. There are many more serious issues then money.
