Adventure #40: Legal Vehicle Operator

I can drive now! I passed my test yesterday morning! The only things that I missed were that I forgot to be sure he could see me glancing left and right at an intersection, and I was so nervous that I couldn't remember all of the steps it takes to park the car and get out... But oh well.

So once we can get our Durango running, I can actually use this newfound ability of mine xD I'm gonna start my job hunt in Boise once I can drive out there cause I want to start work as soon as I can to start saving for while I'm in school, figuring out how much I can work, and be trained and everything. I'm also going to finally get to see my friends at BSU! It's been difficult to get over there to see anybody, and I'm so excited that I can now :)

I'm thinking I will change my major at BSU, too. I had been thinking that I would start off studying psychology because it's really interesting and I thought I might be able to use a degree in that to help people... I've been getting closer to understanding how it is that I actually can help people, though, and analyzing their behaviours isn't the way. It's fascinating, but it won't be productive in the long run. So I am going to try to be extra brave and pursue degrees that will help me to inspire people to care and feel and appreciate more in life... The goal is still a little fuzzy in my head, but I know it will change and become clearer as I continue to pursue what I love and use it to fulfill my purpose.

Hmm... Also we ate ice cream last night to celebrate. It was good.

Adventure #1: The Blog

Here goes! My first blog post ever.

Oh my goodness this is so crazy  what am I doing  why did I think this was a good idea

Okay, those thoughts successfully acknowledged and ignored: Hi! My name is Cora Lee. And I'm planning an adventure that will last for the rest of my life.

I've just graduated high school and have left said institution with a long-indulged fear of making mistakes. This is something I want to unlearn as I teach myself to live. You see, at this point in my life, I'm working to change my perspective and become more open to new experiences, ideas, and even mistakes. So for me, this blog is a tool to help me to practice living with a new perspective.

So here's to: new beginnings, living life, and becoming adventuresome.
