School, how is school?

School is...busy. I'm taking less credits then last semester, but I seem to be way busier! For one thing, student teaching preparations are taking over my life! Between interviews, meetings, writing a resume and autobiography and just plain stressing over it, I don't have a lot of time left over.

The good news is that I found out I can student teach for both of my majors in just one semester! Most likely, even in one school district! Yay!

The bad news is that it is a lot of work to get ready for student teaching! Like I said, I have meetings and interviews and all of this stuff to work on!

Other then that, school hasn't been too bad; just a bit difficult without having a car! Oh well...back to my resume and autobiography!

First Day of School

I experienced my last "first day of school" of my college career yesterday. It was a long one! I had 3 morning classes and then a night class. I think this semester will be easier and go by faster then last semester, so that is nice!

My biggest problem right now is being utterly bored because of a lack of things to do! I'm almost hoping for some easy homework just so that I don't just sit around anymore!

This morning I had my "Teaching Elementary Physical Education" class. We ran around and played games in the gym. I have to say, after sitting around all of break, that hour winded me and made my legs a bit sore! Oh well, I need some exercise!

Break is almost over...

So, I start school tomorrow. For some reason, I am really dreading it! I was surprised tonight when I wasn't very excited! I guess I'll just have to see how tomorrow goes and figure it out from there...

Bad day...

So, I had a bad day not too long ago. The biggest thing was my car breaking down. When I say breaking down, I mean it is now scrap metal. It was no longer driveable. So for now, I am stuck with no car. This is really bad because I use my car to visit Andrew, my family, run errands, and get to teaching opportunities. It officially blows!

Andrew came to get me that night to bring me to the Cities. When we got there, I realized that something had been sitting on top of my bag and it had sprayed an entire can of hairspray out, getting all over a lot of my clothes.

We all have days like these. I got over it thankfully!

School is starting soon

So, school starts on Monday. Am I excited? Yes and no...

Yes: I have been doing absolutely nothing for an entire month. I am ready for something to do! I am also anxious because this is my last semester of classes. I don't want to be an adult and get a job! So I will enjoy this while it lasts!

No: Going back to school means back to big projects, papers, and lesson plans. It is hard to go back to school knowing all the work that is ahead of me. Going back to school also means I have less freedom. It is nice to get up, make breakfast, watch Sesame Street and then do whatever I choose during the day!

Oh well, Monday is coming...

Nothing is happening

So, I haven't written in a while, but that would be because I have done almost nothing! I spent three days at a hockey tournament for my brother. They ended up as consolation champs and they played awesome! Then I headed up to see Andrew. We FINALLY got to have Christmas! His parents bought me some really great gifts.

Andrew got me tickets to "The Beauty and the Beast" at the Ordway theater. It was amazing! I have loved that movie ever since I was little, so seeing it on stage was amazing! I'm always so glad that I have an awesome boyfriend who knows exactly what to get me for Christmas!

Now I'm back at home with one more week to bum around and hang out. Right now, it is -15 degrees outside and actually, growing up in Minnesota, it isn't that bad because there is no wind right now! But it doesn't mean I'm going to make a trip outside anytime soon!
