...really, world.

I have literally spent all day designing and creating what I hope to be an utterly fabulous English Composition class. Paperless classroom, flipped, meant to be engaging and lively 'cause it's at eight in the fucking morning

I know that feeling. I'm not getting paid for teaching right now either (not until my TA contract is actually accepted, whenever the fuck that'll be.)

Mmm cake. Yay cake.

[edmondia]

Sad thing is I went into it knowing I wouldn't be paid, did it anyway, and it will do absolutely nothing for my chances of getting a full-time job. Effing higher education. >.<

It is very delicious!

[abby_sarajane]

Whoa, you can't even put it on your CV and it would help? D: That suckssss and is utterly unfair.

I bet. u.u

[edmondia]

What would it say? "I designed a comp class and it was cool" isn't really a selling point in this market.

I still have half of it left to eat! So much cake. @_@

[abby_sarajane]

Well no, but you could put it in as unpaid prep work under the education teaching [I am dumb] section of your CV. "Designed and blah blah blah a blah blah blah with these special features: blah." I dunno.

o_o That is a LOT of cake. Mmm... I should try to bake something...

[edmondia]

Eh... isn't course design kind of implied already though? IDK.

I am slowly making my way through the cake! I eat two small slices a day. I predict it will take me another three days to get through the rest of the cake.

I think so, but if you did a lot of awesomeness and did interesting and unusual things, it might be a good idea to mention it. It can't hurt anything, I think.

Yaay. XD Hahaha.

I swear, my cat takes delight in creating the most rancid-smelling poos before I have to spend any amount of time in the bathroom. Thanks, cat.

[edmondia]

I think I might hold off until I find out if it worked for the students or not. XD

Pff, I just got done cleaning the litter box after neglecting it for far too long. It's not her poop that's the problem, it's the fact that she pees like a thing that drinks an awful lot of water.

[abby_sarajane]

That's a good idea. XD

Nah, he's pretty good about that, but I swear. He usually does it when I'm about to take a nice, hot, relaxing bath and then--aughfjdshjlfs catttttt.
