stressed, hungry, and esctatic!

Well, I know I haven't wrote in quite a long time, however it has been with good reason. I typically don't blog. I write like Esme`, paper and pen, in a notebook, for my eyes only. It is something that gives me comfort and solace in a world that is full of corruption and injustice, especially in the education system!
Anywho, I secretly found out my placements for Student Teaching in January, and let me just say that I am ecstatic, however I am scared to death as well. I am student teaching with the man that inspired me to watch to teach history in an urban school.
Several thoughts run through my mind however.
  • Do I know enough history? This man knows everything, how can I ever compare?
  • Will our relationship as student/teacher be weird as we become colleagues?
  • Will the students at my former H.S. respect me or expect me to be buddy/buddy with them because I know some of their older brothers and sisters?
  • How can I prepare in the few weeks I have off from classes, however I have no time off from work!
