U R wHat U READ

Vanidades is a Spanish language magazine that has everything to with life, hair, fashion, news and even horoscopes. As I was reading the "2010 Vanidades Libro Especial De Astrologia", it amazed me that it had to say a lot about my future. I was looking for my sign(ARIES) in the magazine and three full pages were about my sign, so I guess that's why there was only horoscopes included. A part of my horoscope said "Vida es solo una vez y si no lo conviertes en algo especial siempre cera nada mas de lo que otros an echo de su vida". This means that "Life is only once and if you do not create it into something special then it will forever be nothing but what others have done with there lives". I payed most of my attention to this quote because it reminded me of what I really want in my life. I want to be a teacher and I realized that this magazine had little to do with my project, but it was most significant to me. I was always told that you choose how to live your life. Horoscopes deal with elements, stars, position of planets and go blabbing about what color to wear on some days, and where to go. Although it is very scientific and spiritual there were days when I believed in some of the things it said. Some of the traits the magazine mentioned were somewhat correct, but also not completely. I consider myself a little bit of everything nice, mean, pretty, ugly, funny, and boring. If you'd ask me to describe myself it would be a long list, because I'm not even close to finishing creating and knowing myself. "How does an astrology magazine know who I am or where I'll be?" It's very difficult to agree with horoscopes, just like agreeing with myself about my future. I want to be a teacher, but not just a teacher I want to be more than that. I want to be an actress, book writer, fashion designer, artist, singer, mother, and a boxer. My life is way to short and yet so long. Education gives me this collection of all the things I want to do, but teaching sticks out more than the others. I feel that I must first learn how to be taught and then be the one teaching others about the material. Since teaching is something you have to be good at and created as an expert, I feel that this career is something that is for sure. An English teacher gets the opportunity to write,imagine, express which all have to do with English(education). Education is something that I positively know I want to do. There are times I have doubts, but who ever really knows where they belong, therefore, I will take this journey and see where it takes me and not completely follow a magazine. Yes, I'll listen on some parts of the horoscope, but I will not base my life on astrology.
