The Friday Five
I couldn't resist answering these. That, and I have time to do it.
1. Who was your favorite teacher? I had a particularly gifted run through the public school system, and had a lot of good teachers. That said, I think Ms. Fielder, my kindergarten teacher would have to be my favorite. She started this whole crazy mess off, and oddly enough, besides my Dad, she's the only one of my teachers that I'm still in frequent contact with.
2. Why was that teacher so special? She was the first. And she taught me how to read (mostly). And I still talk to her.
3. Do you think teachers get paid enough? As a child of two teachers, no. Not for the amount of work they really do.
4. Do you have a favorite year of school? Not that I can think of. I have a least favorite year, does that count?
5. If you could travel back in time and tell yourself something now that would have helped you get through school, what would you say? Don't do so much senior year of high school. I would have done better my first couple of years of undergrad if I hadn't been so burnt out.
