I am...

I am Neva H. born and raised in a small town which is been growing for the last few years and continues to grow. I have a ten year old child who was recently diagnosed with type one diabetes, and we continue to be strong through all of it. I graduated some time ago and I sometimes feel like a dinosaur when it comes to new technology and I recently finished my Child Development AA degree last semester and will be transferring to CSUMB this fall, where I will study for a BA in Collaborative health and human services or Liberal studies for teachers. I plan to get a job in the social services or teaching professions, and may even attempt preschool teaching when I get my permit. I am waiting for my assistant preschool teaching permit then I can get work in this area and work my way up to teaching, possibly. As for my interest and hobbies I like to watch movies, television, music, poetry and ceramics. I work part time for the nearby school distinct as a classified sub. For yard duty, instructional aides, and other in office positions at many of our local junior high and elementary middle schools.  I really don’t find time to read, unless it is to my child, but I plan on reading quite a bit for this class and my philosophy class this semester I will be reading four novels and one book of my choice, most I have read in a few years. So this should be interesting I am looking forward to attempting the writing assignments for this class, because reading and writing is not my passion nor is it in my favorite things to do. Sorry to say that, but I do like poetry and have even written some of my own and even had one of my poems up in the writing center a while back.
