Yesterday I went to Rocks and Ropes . Climbing up walls is sooo much fun! I'm tempted to purchase a membership. It was also really really scary cause i'm afraid of heights and I have control issues. Maybe this will help with both of those things. Cause letting go of a wall and letting someone else control how you get down is quite frightening.
I should be asleep right now but I'm having trouble doing that again so instead i'm working on packing, did some dishes, made rice and beans, and am trying to read the Intro to Excitable Speech.
Yesterday's class went pretty well. The students were able to sustain a convo about the questions presented for about 30 minutes which worked out great for providing time for the "clarifications" part of the class. Also we managed to get about 10 people to activly participate instead of 3-4 which is a nice improvement. One of my students is a white chrisitan frat boy who is forcing me to examine my own biases. I tend to equate people like him with close minded idiots (i know, i know, not cool but I'm working on it) and he is actually quite smart and open to new ideas.
