So Monday and Friday we had practicum in Maroa. I taught on Monday, and it was seriously not my best day. It has taken me this long to get back on my sleep schedule after Fall break, i'm just now back on it, but then I wasn't. I hadn't prepared at all. And it isn't all my fault, because we hadn't been there so long I had no idea how far they were, so I didn't know what to work on or how much to. It was kind of awkward doing so. But, what can you do. Friday I didn't teach so it didn't matter that much. Monday we get new music since their concert is on Tuesday! So I'm excited for that. Finally new music.
Tuesday I was going to go to observe my cooperating teacher. But I didn't. I woke up early, and I just was like "I can't do this today". I gave the excuse that I overslept my alarm, and I did to an extent; I woke up at 6:30, and then was like "No I can't do this, I have a sinus headache again, and I'm just so tired" so I went back to bed and woke up at like 9. It won't happen again, and I can afford a day's rest.
That's it for this week. Tune in next week for more!

Finally, and update.
Well, not really... I'll be updating tomorrow after I get back from observing my cooperating teacher.

Ahhh
I'm finding more and more lately that I just want to get out of here and start student teaching. I mean, I'm sick of going to classes. The only classes I really enjoy this semester are Choir (duh), Tudor Voices (duh again), Practicum (which is like pre-student teaching), and Form and Analysis (because I'm a theory geek). I don't want to do the ethno project, exceptional child is at NIGHT for 2 1/2 hours... ah well. I can see the light at the end of the tunnel... me getting a good job with good pay and great benefits.
And a wife.
And a wife.

Millikin has done it to me again...
So yeah. I have 39 observation hours recorded in the school of education. I should have like 89. We need 100 to student teach. I have 20 coming for observation for student teaching, and more from practicum, but it still would be nice to have those other hours on there... grrr.....
