Update!
My life in 12 items or less:
1) I am kicking butt (*forcing myself to use kid-friendly language in preparation for student teaching*) in 335. Got a 100% on my last teaching episode, and amazingly that's actually been somewhat of a trend with my grades in that class. Booyah!
2) I love all the UMS kids we teach in 335 and I'm sad that tomorrow is our last day with them.
3) I officially have my heart set on teaching middle school. <3
4) Yesterday, I got my first music-related Christmas ornament from a student. Ralph says I'll accumulate innumerous such things over my teaching career, so I figure the first one is somewhat monumental. :)
5) We rocked out on Circus Maximus last week. Way cooler than I expected (can't beat a piece that ends with a shotgun), and I got John Corigliano to sign my program.
6) I have 15 trillion things due on Thursday and only ~36 more hours in which to complete them.
7) 333 is the worst class ever and a certain professor of that class can fudge (*see, kid-friendly*) himself.
8) I don't know why I stopped taking green tea supplements... I took one again today and suddenly have abundant energy and a happy mood despite little sleep, so they are going to re-enter my life.
9) Only 6 classes, one studio performance, one jury, and one final standing between me and winter break!
10) I'm making my trumpet debut tonight at the Concert Band IIB Concert. :)
11) The dish fairy came today and it made me happy. :)
Ta da!
