Time for a brief update!

This semester has completely flown by!! Not to say that I haven't been busier than ever, because I definitely have! The last few weeks have been overwhelming with my first placement coming to a close, assessment portfolios, a birthday and then starting a new placement. Last week was my last week in sixth grade and I miss is sooooooo soooooo much. I never thought I would say that, but I seriously do. I had to go cry in the bathroom Tuesday when I saw my sixth graders and realized they were no longer mine. I love my third grade class, but it's hard to get used to new kids after so long. I think I will like third grade, but nothing will compare to that sixth grade class! Well enough about that!

Spring Break is less than 20 hours away :) I have an interview with a principal over the break but that will be after I get back from a much needed beach trip!!!! :) Graduation is 49 days away and I will say I have the worst case of senioritis EVER!

Geaux Tigers - hopefully we'll be seeing them in the final four then the championship game and then we can call them National Champs :)

I passed the Praxis 2!!! I found out this morning I could call and pay extra to find my scores out today. So I did. Best $30 I ever spent :)

Now I have to focus on finishing the semester.

the weekends keep FLYING past :/

That would not be such a bad thing if the weeks were passing equally as fast. This week I am teaching Reading and Language Arts. I am kind of nervous about teaching from 8- 12... It's the longest I will have ever taught. Tonight I am doing the usual.. heading to the library to print everything for the week and drinking a mountain dew. I was able to get a lot accomplished today, but I didn't go to church. I had to go to Meridian yesterday for a wedding so I decided to stay here this morning and do some stuff at the apartment-like wash clothes since I had NO clean pants. This week is going to be pretty busy, but I guess I better get used to that. I need to practice time management since the days do not appear to be getting any longer. I just need about 3 more hours in the afternoon.. but oh well. Well that's just an update.

It's COLD!

It is freezing today! and tomorrow is supposed to be even colder :/ I am cooking gumbo for dinner tonight! I have been wanting it for a while! I am also cooking peach cobbler.

This week seems to be passing by sooooo slowly. Next week is probably going to fly by since I will actually be teaching. It get quite boring observing all day. I observed the third grade class today that I will have at the end of the semester. They are so cute and so sweet... or at least they were today!

Now it's back to life and lesson plans :)

Day 1 has come and gone...

So it was a little crazy, but in a good way. I like my class. They didn't eat me alive, yet... that will come tomorrow. Well I have officially become an old lady. It's almost 9 and I am about to get in bed - after Bromance goes off.

It's over!

At least for now! Or hopefully for good! I will get my scores back in four weeks. I do not feel good about it, but I do not feel bad either. It was hard... that's basically it. Now I have to move on to student teaching!
