I am now in the High school for my last rotation. When I found out that I would be in the high school the longest I was a little dissapointed becasue I really wanted to teach elentary school music. But the experience is so much better than I thought it would be. I'm at Central and its a blast. The teacher I am with is really cool, she was at south my freshman year....Laura Fahning=amazing. I'm in a choir setting, which I've never been in before, and middle school drama club doesn't count as choir. I've "reunited" ith so many people that I went to middle school with...its cool because they know who I am, and I have no idea who they are...which kind of shows that I was really cocky in middle school and only cared about singing/drama/and swimming. She plays the piano amazingly and she can sing on top of that....I want to be her. If I am as good a teacher as her, my life will be complete. It is so fun. I look forward to going. I have to get up earlier becasue its high school and I don't have time to go in the afternoon. I don't even care that I have to get up early. The only bad thing is, I feel like the students are judging me, and looking minutely at what I'm wearing...so I'm always worried if I look frumpy..or if my hair looks ok. I am learning so much, and its wicked fun. I've finally realized why I am in the major I am...which is good, becasue I was really unhappy my first two quarters. Also the central kids think I'm a whole lot older than what I am...but there really isn't that much of and age difference. A girl today told me that I was mature and lucky to know what I wanted to do in college and when I grow up. I had to laugh though because I really don't ever know what I'm doing. I'm also excited becasue Ms. Fahning likes the viola and asked me if I would play in the pit sometime...which they have an awesome one with an elevator...Sadly I kind of wished I would have went there for music and things. I haven't even heard their orchestra, but there chori is good...and so is their "elite" group...Mr. Johnson )the one that was at south) has the band...I just really like it! I'm also happy about school for the first time...woo for that!
I also started running again becasue I saw a girl I used to swim with and I became really body concoius...not good... I've ran for the past few nights and did some sits ups and some push ups...yeah I only did about 10 of those...thats how out of shape I am. I also ran with my doggy today...that was fun, until he started to lag behind...but it only happened when I had just came back on my street. THis week has been really good...except for piano...so I will not be in class next year and will taking lessons from someone at otterbein...I can't handle Dr. Solido for another quarter, she gets really frustrated with me and makes me feel like an idiot in class. I had never gotten a b on a piano quiz until I got her...eehhhh...she makes me nervous.
I hope everyones rest of the week goes well!
