Oy vay. Life has been so friggin stressful and hectic lately. I havent had time to do anything lately. But anyways, since I'm procrastinating doing homework, i figured i'd update about my classes/schedule since i haven't done that yet.
Mondays:
8:30-10:30: Observation in the Child Lab for my 236 class. It's alright. Ive only done it once so far. I basically sit in the half day preschool room and watch for whatever i'm looking for tht week
11:00-11:50: HDFS 201 - my diversity class. It's.....meh. I don't have a final, which is a good thing, but i do have a semester long project, "i will build bridges" where i have to pick an oppressed minority group and write about it/go to an event where they're the majority and i'm the minority.
12:00-4:00: work
Tuesdays:
8:00-8:50: HDFS 223 - curiculuum class. I like it. It's going to be hard bc I have to do a lot of crafts, etc. Basically i'm going to make a lot of stuff that i can use in the classroom when i graduate. In this class im learning how to run/plan my class room activities
9:00-11:00: I work in the full day preschool room as my HDFS 221 class. I LOVE IT. It's so much fun!!! I love the kids. Two of the kids in the room have Down Syndrome, and i'm in love with them.
11:00-2:00: Free time!!! The few precious time i have to do work while on campus. i'll end up having lunch with Jimmy when he's free
2:00-3:15: HDFS 220 - i dont actually know what this class is really about. We're learning general information about working in the classroom. it's alright. easy.
3:30 - 4:45: HDFS 232 - Early and Middle Childhood development. Basically its a continuation of my 231 class i took last semester. Same set up as well. Huge paper at the end. Two reflections due each week. Quizes every 3 or 4 classes. I like it
Wednesday:
9:00-9:50: HDFS 236, my observation class. It's pretty easy, we just talk about our observations and hand in our assignments. I love the prof. She's also my 223 prof. <3
11:11:50: HDFS 201
12:00-4:00: Work
Thursday:
8:00-8:50: HDFS 223
9:00-11:00: Lab for my 223 class. It's going to be fun/a pain. I have to make a persona doll, and when i say make, i mean, MAKE. The clothing, the hair, etc. and i have to make an about me book to go along with the doll. I also have to do a bulletin board about dad's. Very creative shit
11:00-1:30: work
2:00-3:15: HDFS 220
3:15-4:45: HDFS 232
Friday:
10:00-10:50: discussion for 201
12:00-4:00: work
Tuesdays and Thurs are so busy and non stop. As of right now i dont work Tuesdays, but she might ask me to work certain days. I'm really exhausted. I feel like I go non stop. I wake up at 5:45 on Mondays, 6:00 on Tuesday - Thursday and on Friday I get to sleep in a little later: 8:00. And when this semester is done, it wont matter bc I'm taking summer classes. And as of right now, i'll probably end up going to grad school as well. I decided that i'm going to work in a preschool. I think that's what i wanna do. So i'm probably going to get my masters. I dont know, we'll see once i talk to my advisor.
Umm....other than that, things have been going pretty okay. Only one month, 7 days until my birthday. i'm excited about that.
:-)
Okay that's it for now. Back to work.
