Better Late Than Never… From The Eyes Of A Procrastinator…
Well, to begin with, my name is Siera Eaton.
I am a twenty year old college student who dreams of being a perfect teacher. Now I’m sure we all have those dreams that we feel we are never going to reach… for me that goal is teaching. I feel like I have been going to school to be a teacher for so long and as soon as I graduated my JC and felt like I was half way there, low and behold I still had two more years at an upper division, a credential program year, student teaching and then FINALLY my own classroom; hopefully.
I have wanted to teach since I started high school. My inspiration? My first grade teacher and a few others along the way. Thank you Julie Coke and Jennifer Payne in particular!
I am on the road right now and luckily have not hit any big road blocks. *Knock on wood*
Enough of this school stuff though; My boyfriend and I rescued our loving fur baby back in July and right now (aside form school) they are my life.
In my opinion, a reader is a “bookworm”; someone who LOVES to read. I mean a lot, like ALL the time. I would not classify myself as a reader, although I do enjoy a good read. Outside of school I do not do much reading; I used to though. Way back when I loved reading romance novels and teen stories because I could relate to them and that is what I loved. I read completely differently outside of school. When I am reading for school and not enjoyment I skim a lot more. I also do not get as lost on the story as I do when reading for pleasure. This being said, my outside reading does not correlate to my school reading at all. Once I find a good book though, I cannot put it down.
This was one of my favorite’s in high school.
