I had my first two days of classes this week and my first reaction to them was just how different the classes already seem from my community college. I have always been a crazy perfectionist and moving away, changing my major at the last minute and stressing myself out about everything and anything for a whole week has given me nothing but a major headache.
This might sound childish, but growing up and figuring out what you want to do with the rest of your life is not as easy as it seems. Although I may have gotten stressed and a little discouraged this week I also set myself up for challenges that I am ready to face and do my best to be successful in all my classes. I'm a strong believer that the way you look at something is the way it will be for you....so I choose to look at all my classes positively.
Even though my teacher has NOOOO sense of humor (THATS A JOKE!!) My P.P. of Ed. class looks challenging and interesting. I'm interested to see what I learn this year about education in America and to observe the children at Arts High seems like an awesome experience.

Sometimes when we change the course of our lives, we find ourselves in a panic; sometimes we find ourselves with new energy and hope. I'm glad to see that you are trying to embrace the change with open arms.
I also encourage you to think about how your classes here are different from what you've experienced in the past. I think that will help you to explore your own beliefs about becoming a teacher.
As for my sense of humor, it's only as enjoyable and useful as a teaching tool if my students get it.
Welcome to the show!
