All I really have to say right now is...

...being a teacher is really, really hard sometimes.


(edit @ 4:10 PM) and I'm also going to hopefully make a massive post sometime this week.

Oh man...

To put it simply, I can say that things have been better. Its Tuesday - I've got to make it to Thursday afternoon. I have a half day on Thursday and a full day off Friday, which is nice. These past few days have been the hardest I've faced in all of college, I think. I've felt like I've bombed three consecutive lessons, and out of nowhere my cooperating teacher has been pretty cold with me. Our working relationship is strictly that - a working relationship. Very professional: I can count the times we've talked about things besides school/lessons/teaching/etc on one hand. On top of that, I essentially have to plan two curricular units by Monday. This is no small feat.

I'm actually grading papers now though so maybe I will add to this later...
