Over this Christmas break I have gotten totally spoiled by getting to stay a week at a time in Omaha with Nick. Today I had to return home in order to prepare to take my second Special Ed. Praxis (which, after passing, I will be totally certified to teach k-12 sp. ed!) and because I think the family was getting anxious to see me. However, I returned home to Mom nagging me about this and that which didn't make leaving Nick any easier! It makes me wonder if after Nick and I are married if she will be the same way (nagging) when we come back to visit......I think part of it has to do with still having the sense of being my "boss" while I am here home. Sigh.
I do love being up in Omaha.....It gives me a sense of actually being an adult and being my own master ;)
Monday it's back to school for me for my final semester! I'm not exactly looking forward to student teaching, but the idea of graduating in May really tickles me :) The woman I am doing my student teaching under this semester is going to be a good on to have supervising me. I don't officially go into the high school classroom until February 2nd as I have a 3 week "senior seminar" on campus until then. I am on the fences about whether or not I am excited to do my student teaching. On one hand, it will make the time go by faster and will keep me busy...but on the other hand I almost feel like doing my student teaching in English is not really going to benefit me in the long run because if I do pass both sp. ed praxis tests then I will be persuing that as my career. I am also just not sure if I am confident enough in my abilities and knowledge to teach English because it's been so long since I have been in a high school english classroom and I just feel out of the loop, and almost uninspired. Sad, eh? Maybe it won't be as bad as I am making it out to be.............I can hope, at least :P
