Only 5 more days!

It's almost Spring Break! I'm really excited even though I have zero plans outside of laying out and working out. I am happy that I'll have time to relax and get revved up for the last 6 weeks of school. Yes, hard to believe, but after spring break there will only be SIX weeks of school.

After all the stress about switching jobs in March I've been really surprised at how much I'm enjoying teaching my new kindergardeners. Not only is it fun (albeit stressful) but I am regaining some faith in myself as a teacher. After last year I wasn't sure if I even wanted to continue teaching, but at this school the atmosphere is so different. I actually feel like I can make a difference in these children's lives, I feel that I'm a good teacher and know what I'm doing, and I don't dread going to school in the morning. In fact, I look forward to each day, and each day flies by! In retrospect I think I'm glad they asked me to take over the class, even if it has been a little more crazy than the rest of my year.

With that said, I'm looking forward to teaching at PACE next year. I am excited about the coaching jobs I'll be doing and think coaching at camps this summer will be really fun. I'm so glad Christy put in a good word for me with the lower school principal!

This week Jason Mok came to town for E&Y training...as some of you know these are very exciting weeks! We went to a Hawks game on Monday night with some free tickets from a friend. It was a slow game but still nice to hang out with him and Dan. Then Thursday night we went to Taco Mac with him, and Sarah came too. I love that girl and I'm not sure why it seems that at times it's such a long between seeing her. Anyways, it was definitely the most interesting Taco Mac evening I've ever had. I'll leave it at a very drunk lady made the night interesting...and ended with her dancing on a table,falling off and breaking tons of glasses, and then being kicked out.

Not too much else is new. Travis and I are going to ride our bikes for the first time since fall today. It's been raining all week and the weather is still a little overcast, but at least it's not raining! I am ready to get out and start enjoying my bike.
