(no subject)
life is moving fast. i dont seem to be using my time as well as i should be. and i mean that in regards to my personal relationships. there just arent enough hours in the day for me to do what i want to do, and what seems to get left out the most are my relationships with people. hopefully that will change when school is over. even though i just started again? i dont know. i just wish i saw more of people, is all im saying.
speaking of school--
i am working on my first paper for my education class and it is all about putting yourself into the shoes of so many different people and reflecting on what you would do in any given situation. i am totally freaked out about what i am getting myself into with teaching, but at the same time i cant wait. i dont think that i have actually ever been this passionate about something before. and dammit, i will be a great teacher. people will want to come to my class. and they will leave having learned something they didnt know about before coming in. and i will be enthusiastic, which will get them enthused about whatever it is that i am teaching. sure, i will have to learn to be strict and not let people walk all over me, but i am up for the challenge.
i went to my grandmas house today for some dinner and to do some laundry (a huge throwback to the past for her when her kids would come home for the same reasons) and she asked me what it was i was actually going to school for.
"oh, i plan to teach history."
"oh... really? you think you can handle all of those rowdy kids? i dont know robin. you just seem too nice to handle that type of environment."
i dont think so. i think everyone needs a teacher who isnt too strict, but gets the respect that they deserve from their students. and, by golly, that will be me. oh. ill show her... :D
