I am bummed out. My teach for my adolescents class did not go well today. My part went alright I guess but my partner's part sucked and we did not co-ordinate very well. We don't get graded upon our performance in this class, but I still hate when my group does shitty. Maybe we didn't do shitty and I am being too hard on myself...probably. Who knows? I am always too hard on myself. I get worried sometimes that I'll be too hard in myself if I ever get teaching.
Why do I ever start teaching?. Well, we talked in one of my classes today about how hard it is for us history teachers for a job. In fact it is not uncommon to go jobless for years as a history teacher in the Bay Area or LA or anywhere that isn't Bakersfield or Fresno. I have been told to maybe pass the English CSET because many schools won't take you as a history teacher without it.
I am tired and don't feel like going out this weekend. I feel like I have somehow pissed off some of my friends. I don't know why I get that feeling, but I do. I wish I was more cheerful, but I am not feeling it.
