fun.

So, I finished the first week of Winter term!! I have 2 thoughts: Fun's over. The fun's just beginning. It's my first term taking 4 classes, so it's going to be a busy term. At the same time, I'm FINALLLLLLY in the CFS program!!! I transferred to PSU two and a half years ago with the plan to be in the CFS program.


It's been a crazy ride getting here, but I am starting to see the light at the end of the tunnel! Now the decision is whether or not to add an El Ed minor. It's an additional 4 classes. I thought I'd be done by Fall 2011 but it might end up being longer than that.. still working out the kinks. Depends on whether or not I want to rush to graduate, or add an El Ed minor and slow down. And, the two 5 credit Practicums have 150 volunteer hours each!!! In ten weeks :/ So I don't want to crowd my schedule when I take those Practicums. Anyhoo... should be a fun term.

Abbi

school.

So... school started today. I didn't read any of my ed books during the break, but I had a great break anyways!! I read Three Cups of Tea Young Reader's Ed and I got a lot of great ideas for the classroom!


I settled down on my school schedule today.. which has been stressful. I'm taking Family Theories, Intro to CFS, Math for Elementary School Teachers and Earth & Space Science for Middle School Teachers (because the elementary school teacher one was closed). I haven't taken science in 6 years. I was reading requirements for the graduate program and it said students with a lack of math and science are not as strong of candidates, so I thought I should add one in.

I had a great New Years Eve. I made a scrapbook of the year. It was great to remember the good memories of the year because I had a difficult year with my seizures. I did a lot of wonderful things in 2010. Went to Belize, Bend, and Chipotle a lot!!

Happy New Year! Be kind and love.
