Introduction

First of all welcome to my Blog. My name is Ruth Black. I am a 22 year-old junior at Henderson State University from Lansing, Arkansas. I want to become a Teacher because my mother is a teacher and I would love to change a child’s life. I love to cook, clean, if I’m in a dirty place, and meditate. I am good at keeping babies. My parents are still living. My mother just opened an early childhood learning facility. My father is a retired Highway police and a pastor of a church (hence the name "Twice Baked" PK: preachers kid and police kid). They had 10 children together but unfortunately there are only 6 of us now. Let's start from the oldest and work our way to the youngest. My oldest brother has his own company. He has 2 children and a fiancé. The second child is my sister; she is happily married with two children and also has her own business. The third one is single but she is still young. She is a counselor at a college. The fourth is married with no children. He has his master’s degree. The fifth is single. He too is young and still has time for the right person to be revealed. Lastly, you guessed it, there is me, still in college. I'll graduate eventually. As of right now I am unsure as to what I would like to do with my life. All of my life the decisions have been made for me by my parents and siblings. Now that I am in the real world, where I am forced to make my own choices, it is very hard adjusting.  People say “I guess it true what they say about PK’s” and I respond “what?” and they reply “PK’s are the worst”. In my opinion, it is the mindset of the PK’s that is the worst and deadly, I have contemplated suicide and acted on it.  However, I am in the process of healing from it and becoming a better person. They may say that us “PK’s” are some of the worse kids’ but we just like everyone else are normal and struggle with the everyday aspects of finding ourselves and I Ruth Black am finding myself!
