5th Symphony

First day of Spring Semester 2011 is complete! I'm so glad I only have class two days a week even though I'll love my classes (with the exception of math which is pretty much the same as it was last semester).

Today's agenda started with working the ECE club booth. That took 2 hours out of my life and wasn't that bad. I caught up with some people and finished a book. Pretty successful.

Second came math for elementary teachers 2. I think I'll like the second section better than the first because it's a lot more geometry and I love geometry. Pssh I got this.

Third was children's lit. My professor looks like what Miranda Cosgrove will look like in about 40 years...it's kind of freaky. But she's pretty awesome. Everything to her is "enchanting". While we were going around the room talking about what we want to do, the girl next to me says she wants to be a librarian. When I said I worked at a library she practically hugged me. New best friend! I didn't know this was a service learning class which means we'll be doing stuff out in the community. In this case it's reading to children at the center on campus. Those hours will add up to the ones I earned in biology last semester so I'll get to be special and wear a medal at graduation.

Fourth was student teaching seminar. HOLY CRAP does my professor have a shit ton of energy. I was pretty energetic myself but you can only have so much enthusiasm when your "tuna salad" sandwich ended up being "chicken salad" sandwich and you've had a killer headache since math. Love the class though. There's a woman in there who has been teaching for 27 years so she's been giving a ton of stories and stuff to help us out. My professor is in love with Megan and I since we're officers of the ECE club. I asked her if she wanted to be a co-adviser and she almost fell over. I'll be placed at the children's learning center on campus with the head coordinator of the center. We have a dinner where we meet with our teacher in February and discuss when we'll be in the classroom. I'm so excited! :B
