A new Adventure!

For the past four years I have made my New Year Resolutions under the influence of the joy that the spirit of Christmas brings to our lives –sometimes too perfect and beautiful to become true–. Regretfully enough, those resolutions were forgotten by the time school started over. Therefore this year I am determined to welcome 2010 with changes that take immediate effect in my life.
For instance, one of my resolutions is to challenge myself to do new things that will allow me to grow both personally and professionally. “Writing in the Digital Classroom” is a perfect combination to achieve this goal. I am not tech-savvy at all or a fluent writer, but I think it is time for me to embrace this new episode in my life. There is this “voice” inside me that wants to be heard, and the students I teach need someone to help them build their own voices. This is going to be a thrilling challenge.
At this point of my life, things are spinning fast and it feels as if I were riding a roller coaster. There is so much to learn, but I firmly believe that “practice makes perfect”. I hope I will learn to enjoy all my rides in Digital Land.

  1. Last year I skipped a New Year resolution, but this year I made them. I need to shed about 30 lbs and to this date I have lost 10.5 lbs. Turning 50 at the end of last year was a wake up call for my health. I know you will do well in this course and enjoy the time to learn and write.
