Insanity
Life has officially become nuts. I honestly don't feel like I have time to breathe, between school, work, and trying to get 110 hours of field observation experience in the classroom. o_O Plus I've already had two breakdowns due to stress. (But I figured I would have them.) Add to that, my depression keeps flaring up. This morning, after a lovely night of horrific nightmares, I woke up, knowing it was a "Sleeping Monster" kind of day. (Those are the days when my depression flares up.) I hate these days. I feel like I don't want to do anything, but I have to.
In spite of all that, I do have some good news. My cooperating teacher thinks I will make a good teacher. She says I'm good with kids, and that she's not worried about me actually teaching. ^_^ This makes me quite happy...if I can just get there. ^_^; And then get a job.
I'm considering doing something utterly nuts: trying to do NaNoWriMo. I know I shouldn't. It would be stupid in the extreme. My workload wouldn't allow it. But it's like a siren, calling my name. Plus it would allow me to do some writing, which I would love. *shrugs* I probably won't do it. But I want to.
In other news, I saw Wicked on Saturday night for the second time. Only this time, my mom got tickets that were close to the front. I could actually see expressions on faces, and details on costumes. I about drooled over the rich fabrics. Lovely! I loved this cast, too. I thought the actress who played Galinda and the actor who played Fieyro were exceptional. I love this play. I know it's not a good adaptation of its source material, but that doesn't bother me in this case. The novel is also very good, if rather depressing. But I love the characters in the play, and I love the way everything plays out better in the musical.
With television, I am back to loving Supernatural, especially Castiel...especially Dean/Castiel. ~_^ So pretty! And I really love their characters. They're good for each other, and not just in a slashy way. My faith in Eric Kripke has been restored, if everything I've been reading and hearing about this season is true. However, I really hope it ends this season, not because I necessarily want it to end, but because I want it to end on a high note. I don't want it to plod on past its expiration date and become bad, like certain other shows on its network. *coughs* Smallville *coughs* I want it to end on a good note, when the show is still excellent. So I'm hoping for a great *series* finale this season, not just a season finale.
