A Learning Experience...Literally.
I'm here.
For the last (nearly) two weeks, I have been a resident of Las Vegas, Nevada.
I do believe this is where the inhabitants of the Bad Place go to cool down...
Just kidding...kind of.
I have begun my student teaching at Basic High School in Henderson. Classes start at 7:10 a.m. I have to be there at 6:50...I didn't know there was a 5:30 in the morning...
Two days in class with students and so far, so good.
I don't really know how I feel about being here. I kind of feel like it's all just a dream...that might be from the waking up so early...
I am teaching Theatre as well as Journalism...I definitely have a better feel for the Journalism. I think it's a bit more of a linear subject which makes it easier to teach. Well, for me anyway.
Both of my cooperating teachers are fantastic. They are both pumped about the topic and their enthusiasm shows in their teaching.
I'm still terrified of teaching. But, with a little practice and preparation, I think I will survive the next 3 months... 12 and a half weeks...86 days...not that I'm counting down or anything...

Not always knowing where I'm going, but never, ever lost.

Theatre and Journalism? You are awesome at both! I know you will get broken in soon. It will just take a little time to get into the flow of everything.
At least you are moving forward with your life... right now I am just waiting for my life to start again. I leave for Utah tomorrow... new chapters are scary.
It's scary, but you will be better for it! Did you know that there is a 4:30am too? And it's when you wake up, not when you go to sleep.
