Assignment 1

About Me
Hello my name is Chelsea Strong. I am 20 years young and I am one if five children. I have one older sister and all the rest are younger than me. I am very much a family person. I have no clue what i would do with out my family. I have a wonderful mother that is raising everyone by herself that will do anything for us. You can only imagine how it is around our house, YES a circus! My dad passed away the summer of 2012 unexpected. He was perfectly fine to us. He had nothing wrong with him. He died of severe heart disease, which there are no signs or warnings for. The only way you find out you have it is if you have a heart attack. It was very devastating. I am a Rambo, if any of you all are familiar with the Rambos skating rinks that is my pawpaw and nana. They started all of them. So that does make me a rink rat. I am engaged! :) The big day is December 22 of the this year and i am super excited!
I have two jobs at the moment right now and they are at my church in the nursery taking care of children from 0-7th grade (just wherever my boss sticks me), and i also work at the YMCA in Saraland as the Youth Services Assistant Director which outs me over almost everything.
I graduated high school from Faith Academy. Most people say they hate it but i loved it. After graduating i attended Faulkner State Community College in Bay Minnette. There i majored in Elementary education, but i wanted to do special education and they didn't have that so that how i ended up here at USA! Here i am majoring in Secondary Special Education with a minor in english. I absolutely love kids with my whole heart and especially special needs children!

Dr. Pausch
Dr. pausch had some extremely good points. I being a college student and working am a terrible procrastinator and put things off till the last minute. I have never heard of Dr. Pausch until now. He is an incredibly smart man. One thing that stuck out to me the most was about doing things right vs, doing the right things. I plan on taking this into consideration and getting things done on the right time and doing things right. I plan on every week when i am starting my week off getting up and making a to do list of everything that i needed to get done that week. I hope every one takes this into consideration.
