First Blog Entry

Well, I think a lot of times you have to figure out what you don't want to do before you can figure out what you do want to do. When I first came to Clemson, I had no idea what I wanted to major in. I started out with Marketing, and then Communications, then finally my senior year I declared Economics. I do love my major, but after I graduated I realized there was nothing that I wanted to do every day that involved economics. My whole life I have always worked with children and enjoyed doing it. I have been babysitting since I was 11 years old, I have been a camp counselor before, and I have also been a nanny for several families. It did not take me long to realize that I wanted a career where I could work with children every day and that is why I chose early childhood education. I am hoping to learn as much as possible this semester about early childhood education. I can't wait to be able to relate my experience with children into the past to what we will be learning this semester.
