Why I want to be a Teacher...

So I have read this forward several times before, but this time it really hit hard. My professor showed it to us in class last night. I fought the tears for a while, but as Cassandra and Megan saw-- they came out! The quote I love was "on that very day, she quit teaching reading, writing, and arithmetic and instead began teaching children."

Tonight Elizabeth and I were talking about the community in her classroom and how she is so excited it. The thing I love about E is the encouragement I get from just listening to her talk. She is really a great teacher and someone I strive to be like when I teach.

I want teaching to be more than a job for me, I want it my career. I don't want to leave my kids at school when I walk out the door; I want to think about how I can help each student grow.

An Amazing Movie

If you are looking for a good movie to go see, check out Tyler Perry's "Why Did I Get Married?" It's great for people if you are married or single. If you know me, you know I LOVE me some Madea and Tyler Perry. He is an amazing writer and director and his movies somehow always make an impact on me. Check it out! It's great!!

Fall Break

YAY!! I'm pretty excited! Tomorrow and Tuesday are my Fall Break! I am sooooo happy! Also, I just thought I'd share some pictures of things happening recently!

The Souls Harbor Concert

Now, I'm gonna go put on a movie and not set an alarm clock for the mornin and snuggle with my cat!! Night everyone!

Absolutely Overwhelmed

I don't think I have ever been so tired in my entire life!! I am so physically exhausted I don't want to get out of bed. It's a very terrifying feeling. I feel like I am treading in the middle of the ocean and can't see the shore on any side!! I know I am not the only one feeling like this! I'm pretty sure every person in their senior year of the education program is feeling this way. I just don't know what to do to catch up!!
