Here's to Trying

     Ok, so since they haven't put up the new episode of Grey's Anatomy online yet...I thought I'd write a quick post about the things I hope to try for this semester. I hope to try to keep this up even though my time in EDM has been spent. This semester I can only hope to keep up! With other education classes and just my regular classes, I can tell that I'm going to have to take these moments just to catch my breath.
     I start field experience next week, and I'm beyond excited. I'm looking forward to spending time at BC Rain High School, and hopefully UMS Wright. It's definitely going to be a HUGE difference from the time I spent in high school. I went to a majority white school with 76 other people in my graduating class. Can we say small town? Oh well, I welcome the change! It's going to be a lot of fun. I'm going to try to be more outgoing. I have a real problem with not being as outgoing as I should be when I meet new people. That is going to have to change! I'm going to try not to procrastinate (it won't happen, but hey it can go on the list for looks). Teachers' give us outlines of what we're going to do for a reason, I should problem pay more attention to that. Especially now that I'm thinking that I have 2 tests, and a paper due next week...
     So, here's to making more lists (and remembering where I put them), here's to talking to new people, and basically here's to trying. :)

In this picture I was definitely trying to do what some of the boys on our youth trip did...and a friend of mine's dad, that is hang up side down from a pull up bar. I failed...epically : )

Extremely Late! :)

So the fall semester has ended, but I felt bad that I never could get my self reflection video up. However, this picture sums up my video. I put it just in case any new EDM 310 students stumble across my blog. Good luck with the semester!!
