My life post #1

I have never really done any type of blogging or kept up with social media. I have a Facebook but rarely post anything new in my life. I am more of a face to face type person, in the fact the social interaction to me means, "meeting" new people and conversing with them not via Facebook, or Twitter etc.
However after 3 full years of school I have decided that maybe it is time for me to branch out and explain a little about myself
I am 24 years old and recently engaged to the most beautiful girl in the world. We have known each other for about 8 years and things are wonderful. I have had to learn however that patience is key in a relationship. See I have wanted to marry my dearest Meghan for over a year. However she was not as eager to jump into a "eternal" relationship with me. She wanted to take time and know each other more. At the time I thought that was the dumbest thing that she could have said. I was thinking to myself," Man we have the rest of our lives to know each other." Turns out that this year has given me a lot of learning, and I am grateful that we took out our time and she is as ready as me. I come from a family of 5 but my whole life we have had people from all over the world staying at our home. It has taught me a lot about different cultures and people, too which end I am very grateful.
I currently am working for the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day saints, teaching early morning seminary. I really do love it and want to become a full time teacher. Immersing myself in the Gospel  on a 24 hour basis is a pretty cool thing. I love teaching though. I have taught Korean at BYU and coach football at a local high school. I always think of the times that I had in school and what the coaches and teachers taught me. Not only about secular things, but how to be a man. I learned many lessons that I still try and apply to my life today.
I am finally in my last semester of school I am taking all the my "GE" classes or the classes that every student at the University are required to take. It is quite interesting and I think that I will be in a bit over my head, with all of the things that I must read! I have never really loved to read, I am a bit of a visual guy.

SO WHAT?

Why is any of that important? I have thought to my self about my life for the last little while as I am ending school and really getting ready to further dive myself into to what seems sometimes like a hostel world. I believe that I must continue to learn in any field that I choose to go into, and in doing so I must push myself to do the things that I am not comfortable with. Ya reading is not my favorite thing and I will have to strive for more patience.

NOW WHAT?
Now what.... what a question. I am determined to finish school and not let anything bother me. I am going to succeed in what I do... even if it is something new like "blogging" I am the creator of my environment...not the creature. I will do the best I can even if I look like this!
