A Fresh Start
Well, the end of the first week of classes is here. And it's COLD. Even without the wind chill, it was a brisk -7 degrees here in good ol' Muncie. Needless to say, walking to classes today was almost painful! The one benefit of the cold weather? My high school is on a two-hour delay tomorrow, and since I'm scheduled to be a sub, I get to sleep in! Anyway, I would just like to share with you what my semester is going to look like this spring.
First off, I'm happy to say that I'm no longer commuting from home; I have an apartment right in the village. This is probably going to prove costly as I live right next to Jimmy John's, the Pita Pit, and Scotty's...no bueno! Maybe I'll be able to gain some self-control this semester...we'll see. Anyway, back to the semester. I have a feeling I'm going to be quite busy this semester. I'm taking an Educational Psychology class, a Teaching Instrumental Music Methods course, either an Economics class or a Religious Studies class (which yet I'm not sure...still in the works), still busy with University Singers, working on campus at Pruis Hall, working as a substitute teacher back home in New Castle, and also choreographing for my high school. On top of that, my puppy Copper is up in Muncie, and let me tell you, it's like having a kid. Constant attention, whether it's playing or going outside. And with it being so cold, I hardly want to spend 30 minutes outside playing, so he has a lot of pent up energy at the moment.
I'm also getting really excited because I realize I have one more semester before student teaching, then I'm DONE. I feel like I've been at Ball State for YEARS...oh yeah, I kind of have. Oh well. It's coming to a close, and I can't wait. I'm excited for this semester and I hope it's a good one. Until next time, au revoir!
