About Me

Welcome to Thoughts du Jour!
 
Hola! My name is Jenn and I look forward to sharing my travels, food experiments and life adventures with you through this blog.

I don't believe I can be described simply by my education or my career path in life; however, since that is what is usually asked upon a first introduction -- the "so, what do you do?" -- here is my answer!

I completed my B.A. in Sociology and Elementary Education (with a minor in Spanish), then went on to be a third grade teacher and then a toddler (daycare) teacher for a few years. After that, I completed my M.A. in School Counseling. I have worked with children and adolescents most of my teenage and adult life and look forward to continuing to do so through counseling.

What do I want to do "when I grow up"? Well, I hope to become a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC), specializing in working with children and adolescents. I would love to complete animal assisted therapy courses and learn how to train my pets to help me in this endeavor.

Other than my career path, I hope to continue writing as I used to in my youth. I would like to try and get some of my stories published - not really into the fame and fortune deal, but it'd be cool to get my stories out in the world. Also, I aspire to take in each day as the beautiful blessing that it is - to appreciate all of my family, friends, pets, nature around me and learn how to let go and just simply thank God.
 
I have many interests in life, of which these are just a few:
  • family and friends
  • animals
  • food
  • traveling
  • learning new languages
  • learning in general
  • READING!!!
  • running
  • biking
  • softball/sports
  • music
  • laughter
  • religion/spirituality
  • yoga
  • meditation
I hope you enjoy the blog and feel free to leave me any positive messages you have for me or for others!
