I am so EXCITED right now!!! :) Just got my acceptance letter for BYU-Idaho. I thought I was going to have to wait in agony for a few more weeks but luckily not! I've been pretty stressed lately trying to think about everything I still need to do but this just made my day! I almost got up and started jumping up and down but I didn't. Happy to know where I'm going and that its the place that I really want to go. I know everything else will fall into place. I'll miss people but I know this is the right thing and can't wait!!!
I was just saying today how I've never really liked school and this year isn't any better. I really like my internship and don't miss days that I go there. I know teaching is what I want to do, also. I've liked 4th and 5th grade I start 8th grade tomorrow. We'll see how that turns out. I just want to know I made a difference in other peoples life and not just a class someone couldn't wait to be done with. I appreciated my elementary and middle school teachers more. I think they actually had a variety of ways to teach instead of doing the same thing everyday and not mixing it up. Taking Teacher Academy has made me think a lot about teachers. Typically I would like the classes with the subjects I like or if I liked a teacher but I didn't actually think about if that teacher was a good teacher or not.. My class has made a big list of what makes a good teacher good and I've really learned a lot this year that I never even thought about. Kindof looking forward to college in a way and what it will bring even though I don't really like school now.
