Subject: Rough week...
It seems like things are just kind of piling on top of one another.
I had another student teaching breakdown on Wednesday. Not good... I don't know why those 1-on-1 meetings stress me out so much... actually, I think I know exactly why. But anyway... breakdowns due to student teaching = 2 total. Awesome.
The thing that is bothering me the most is that an old friend of mine from high school, Tyler, got into a serious car accident this week and he's in a coma. I haven't talked to him in about a year, but he is still a good kid and someone that I would recognize and chat with if I ran into him. I have never been this worried about someone since... well SHS remembers the summer of 2001. It sucked, and this feels the exact same way. Anyway, things aren't going so well with him, so a couple of my other old friends from high school and I are going to the hospital on Saturday to see him. Of course, they probably won't even let us see him, but it's the thoughts that matter. Please pray for Tyler and his family...
On that note, this weekend is going to be rough. My HDFS 204 teacher is the antichrist and her exam is going to be horrible. I am not looking forward to the studying. Plus I have to read and write stuff for student teaching (the work REALLY never ends) and go see Tyler at the hospital and have a long fraternity meeting on Sunday night and have a big snow storm... DO YOU SEE WHERE THIS IS GOING?! Everything is snowballing and it's getting stressful around here.
Let's be positive for a minute...
I am really enjoying my time in the classroom student teaching, though. The children are AMAZING- I love them so much and they really bring soo much happiness to me. I can't wait to dedicate my life to young children. I enjoy Chris, Robin, and especially Michelle (cause she's crazy!) in the room, and it's just a really "good time" for those who love kids. I feel like I am coming out of my shell a little more, which makes me so happy. And the observations are coming easier, it seems the children are just doing things that I need to see. It's great... but it really is so much work.
On that note, let's take a deep cleansing breath... and please please pray for Tyler...
