Back to school!
I have decided that I want to go back to school. Of course I didn't decide this until about the week before school started. So i am planning on returning in January. I am just going to finish my generals at Salt Lake Community College. Then from there I may go to the U cause I can get half tuition since my dad works there. But I am planning on going into Social Work. I want to work with family's and kids. I guess working at the daycare has shown me what my interests can be and that I really want to make the difference in someones life. What better way to do so then influencing a child's life. I love working with kids and always thought I would be a teacher but didn't really see myself as teaching. Here is a great way to work with kids and help them hopefully for good.

Stressful places
Ever been in some place that has been really scary or just plain nerve wracking. Well I have had a couple of those places in my life. Well one of those happened July 26th. I got off work and stopped off at a store for five minutes and when I came out my car wouldn't start. So I called my cousin and he came and jumpstarted my car for me. He told me I needed to go get my battery checked out.I went to the dealership but they had already closed. So I went to auto zone and as soon as I turned my car off it died. So I got jump started again and decided to go get my dads car since they were out of town.
So I was driving on the freeway and at 90th south my car just dies. I am in the center lane of traffic. I had no hazard lights. Thankfully a car stopped behind me and turned his lights on. He got out of his car and came up to me telling me that he is going to push my car to the side of the road with his car. We get into the fast lane but he couldn't get any cars to stop in the Hov lane. Finally a car pulled out of the fast lane and stopped so he could get me off the road.
I had already called the highway patrol men and the tow truck. The highway patrolmen told me he was going to get another patrolmen to slow down traffic so that he could push me off the freeway.
It was crazy. Tons of cars passing by and then not a single car. So he pushed me off the 90th south exit and off to a side road where I waited fir Trent and Lyndsi to come and get me. I had been talking to Lynz about having to have been jumped started. She told me to call if I needed help. So when my car died I called her.
They brought me some dinner and then waited a bit for the tow truck to come. They had their little boy Owen with them who thought it was so cool when the tow truck was getting my car on the bed of the truck.
So it turns out it was just my battery. But it still was scary to have my car die in the freeway. My parents were out of town so I didn't have them for help. So thankful to the kind stranger who stopped to help and for Trent and Lyndsi. I am so blessed.
