Teresa Talks

Hello bloggers!

I'm new to this, so take it easy on me please!

I would like to start off and confess I am a not a thoughtful writer, I make grammar mistakes frequently, and I tend to ramble on and off of the topic. However, writing is  a secret passion of mine. I wish I had more of a passion for writing essays for school then blogging, but OH WELL! It's something I love to do because it's easier for me to get my point across a lot better through writing then actually talking. Maybe some other people are like that also?

I started a blog because I would like this to prep me for when I hope...WILL become a motivational speaker one day or at least try it once. This is only one of my many goals! Not only that, but it's fun and gives me time to collect my thoughts in a quiet room (no babies) with a fresh cup of coffee next to me! I will be blogging about life in general; struggles along the way, God, family/friends, college, food, recipes, goals that I will be setting from now on, and fun activities that come up! 

This is my beautiful family. Of course, my big brother Mikey is missing which I'll tell you later on about him. I'm in the purple sweater. Also, my sister to the right of me, she has a blog as well and you should read and follow her exciting/interesting posts. http://www.jessandtheboys.com/ And props to Jess for motivating me and helping me start this blog in the first place. :) Thanks sissy pants! 

I am a 20 year old, college student that works at Target so I'm not as poor. And hey, who doesn't love Target!? But, i'm trying to figure my life out along the way! So far I've come up with Liberal Studies to be a kindergarten teacher after years of wanting to be a nurse. Why the sudden change of heart? I do what I want....and also because I'm really great with kids and I can see myself doing that for the rest of my life. Are you wishing me luck realizing now that I'm going to be surrounded by children FOR-E-VER? Yeah, I'm wishing myself luck too! I currently live with my sister in hell, I mean El Centro with her husband and two beautiful/loud kids, I'm already surrounded by children! But, I love those kids. I'm a catholic girl and God will always have a gigantic place in my heart. I love my family to death! Friends come and go but the one's that stuck around are amazing!

I have realized the last few months, my life can only get better from here on out! Everyone has or will go through struggles. The struggles may be temporary or long lasting, however you can choose how to feel about the struggle you face. You can either be depressed? Or take it for what it is and move the * on! It can be sickness, death, money, relationships, or traumatic events. It doesn't matter what it is, it only matters who is there to pick you back up in the end--GOD. Amen to that! 

There are are so many things that I'm grateful for today:
-loving and supporting parents that help me through my good times and bad
-my sister and her husband that welcomed me into their home; my sister being their when I need to talk and for voicing her opinion on everything I say even though...i hate it. 
-my big brother coming home safely to us in a few weeks after being in the Navy for so long. I can't wait for him to come home for good!
-my little brother fighting and BEATING cancer. 


This is me and you will read a lot more as I go along with this crazy thing called LIFE!
