Update 2014-Grownup?

Wow how time flies when you have reached your career and are getting through by flying....by the seat of your pants. Yeap that is right, since I have written last I reached my goal of teaching secondary education. Matter of fact, my goal was to teach math and help with the theater at my old high school.... with my old teachers. And well I am doing it. About 8 months ago, while I was a counselor for EFY, I received a call from my old high school saying they wanted to higher me. At the time I was nervous about teaching the math and putting solid roots down with my big girl job but excited I reached my goal so quickly. I started off thinking I was ready for classroom management and boy was I wrong. I have never had a problem with relating to teenagers and being able to connect with the adolescent age. So I stupidly did not take the advice about starting off strict and then relax as the year goes by. If any of you who are reading this are student teaching right now or studying to be a teacher don't make the same mistake I made. I am paying for that mistake horribly right now.

I love the theatre part of it all though. Right now we are doing UIL and we have already advanced at zone and district. Our previous shows we did were Paganini and Frankenstein. Great experiences being an assistant director.

Anyways, other updates in my life is both of my sisters have moved back home to Texas with their kids and are divorced or separated from their husbands. I'm glad they are here and I get to spend time with my neices and nephew...and of course my sisters. I also upgraded apartments and since my old roommate got married I got a new roommate and 2 cats. And I got a new car. Needless to say with my job, car, and apartment I feel like I am a true grown up.
