about time

so i move into my new apartment in less than 48 hours. there are a lot of "new" things about it, indeed. new table and chairs. new futon. new dishes. new pots and pans. here's something else new: no class. i really have graduated. well that's certainly strange isn't it? new job: not really a job, because i am not getting paid for it (oh no, i am paying out of state, graduate tuition for 9 hours, don't even get me started) but a job in the sense that i will be teaching (ish, observing for some part) a full day of school 5 days a week. does everyone else feel like me when they get to this point? that they have absolutely no stinkin idea what they're doing? i sure hope so, because otherwise i would feel pretty lame. i'm not SCARED, confidence isn't really the problem. it's more like i just really am at a loss for figuring out what it is i am actually supposed to do. hopefully, someone will show me. i think i will break this blog out of the dust for the purpose of tracking the teaching days and my emotions that go along with it- since i'm still not entirely sure that this is exactly what i want to do. i'm counting on the student teaching to help me figure that out.

i really should think about brushing up on the Spanish, since that IS what i'm going to be teaching...
