Surprising Awake...

Evening...Blog.

I don't know if anyone reads this anymore. Tumblr seems to be the next big thing...I suppose that someday I will jump on board. I bearly have time to edit or breathe so I can't imagine it will be anytime soon. Lately life is like this.

6:30 AM Get the hell up
7:30 AM Drive to Work (Better hope you Ate, ironed and made yourself presentable)
8:00 AM- 3:ish PM Teach, laugh, staple things, make copies, organize the scary book shelves of future mentor teacher, smile, interact with 5 year old boys who love you, laugh, bathroom, give a spelling test, interact with 10 year boys that love you (eeek). Struggle throught a math lesson, YELL at kid standing on table, read stories, teach choir, cut out stuff for art teacher, being encoraging to boys and girls of all ages, go to library and sit on floor like I'm a kid. Eat lunch, laugh more, color, talk to teachers (many who were interns) DROP DEAD.

4:00-8:00 T and Th (Six on Monday) Sit in boring lectures.

Rest of day and weekends: Lesson plans, Lesson plans, online homework, online homework, unit plans, Native Americans, Disney Math lab, Butterfly life cycle play, Orgainic Food presentation, Lesson plans. Jon time. Story work.

It's crazy, sometimes I would rather be doing anything else at nine oclock at night and I'm always tired. But there is nothing else I'd rather do. Well I'd like to write more obviously. But there will be time. The kids make me happy. And the millions of lesson plans are at least fun to do. A nice change of pace from all the reading of the classics I did last year.

It's hard to believe it's already the middle of November. In someways it's bittersweet. Though I'm coming back next year, it won't be like this. They are all going to grow. Some will head to middle school. I'm getting attached. I NEVER WANT TO GO BACK TO BIG Y.

Seriously, I will be a camp counselor, nanny, tutor. Hell anything involving children. Please, I don't want to look at a Gold Coin ever AGAIN.

Merry Happy

Hey just a quick update.

Haven't had my internship or school in over a week. I think everyone, including my father will be happy when this storm is behind us.

But the time off has been great because I'm now working on my second draft of my current project. I have broken a record with this one! I've finished half a dozen or less rough drafts, but nothing has gotten this far. It's tedious, but in the long run it will be worth it. I'm going back and doing things that I wasn't even thinking about when I busted it out the first time. My main character has more background story, and it's more detailed. Though I'm only on my second chapter. I'm happy to say that chapter one has been split into two chapters and I know of at least three new ones that I wanted to do from the get go. After I finish this (I imagine it won't be for sometime) I will take another mini hiatus before I do the final work draft. That will probably be more like polishing and what not. Copyright? Then I can start telling you what this is all about! Trust me, I want to SO BAD.
