It's Going to Be a Bright...

...Bright Sunshiny Day!

It's been a little while since you first heard from me. I've been a little busy running a hall, programing, being an awesome barista, and an even better student. I've also been sick since last Wednesday with everything from a virus, upper respiratory infection, and an ear infection. But life must move on!

Since we last talked, I've gotten to talk to so many high school students who want to be science teachers, math teachers, Spanish teachers, art teachers, and mostly social studies and history teachers. Now is a great time! UNC Asheville is the right place! The high school students that I met at Mayfield Community College were excited about the possibility of attending UNC Asheville and becoming a student at our asthetically pleasing campus. Moreover, the students at the Departemental Fair at our Open House were even more excited because they had prospects on coming to UNC Asheville, and they were scoping out their options. They were the most excited.

Everyday I look at CNN with the economy going in circles and people losing their jobs and jobs being cut, now is the time to almost guarantee a job once you graduate. I think about it everyday and how what I do will help me be a good educator one day. Running a hall and creating a bulletin board and programing is somewhat like having a 24 hr classroom.
