Lesson Learned?

Hopefully I have learned my lesson.
Hopefully I will never try to plan out Thanksgiving for almost 20 people and do the majority of the cooking.
I think I've learned my lesson but one can never be too careful.

Everyone had fun yesterday and I received many compliments on my cooking it was a gathering of my friends. I don't know what I would do without them. It wasn't everyone and some of the important people couldn't make it. I'm going to miss everyone so much when I leave.

Possibilities?

So I'm not sure that I will get into the MAT program here at SMCM. I'll have fulfilled all the requirements by the time I graduate but I still may not make it. Even if I do make it I may not stay here. There are other options, other possibilities I could pursue. Teach for America has always been a possibility in the back of my mind and my mother found another potential work source for me in The New Teacher Project. Both work with innercity schools with students who are struggling to learn. I'd be working with high risk, high needs students. I'm just not sure what I'm ready for. Things will have to be sorted out soon though. I graduate in May.

Politics

I don't like talking about politics but because a teacher's life is ruled and run by politics now-a-days I feel as though I should have some say in what goes on and the changes that are or are not being made. That being said, I am not jumping to conclusions, I'm going to sit back and see how this develops, then I'll get involved. As of right now I'll wait and see.

Congratulations to Senator Obama on a race well won, good luck in the next four years.

Also to my fellow republicans, get your heads out of your butts, seriously, stop being racists and man up.
