Who Knew?

So it's been a very crazy couple of weeks. Just non-stop assignments and meetings and more assignments and drama drama DRAMA! But this next week should be pretty good. I'm hoping to actually accomplish something other than the bare minimum in class, I'd like to actually get some assignments finished then be able to get ahead with some other assignments...we'll see if that happens. So part of my extra crazy week involved the fact that we had a community meeting in Arroyo Grande tonight and no matter how hard we tried our class just could not convince our professor how we should conduct this meeting. It turned out much better than I ever would have thought, however, it was not very useful for us since we did not receive much/any feedback from the community. So, maybe someday our professor will actually listen to our ideas and we might actually gain some insight from the community and we might actually get to use the skills we've learned in other classes. Okay bitterness vented, I'm done. More on topic, I taught my first college level course today. What a thrill! Who knew I would be teaching college courses someday...well, I certainly didn't! And I know a lot of other people probably feel the same way, especially my family. I usually hate talking in front of people, but it was so much fun to teach today! It's mainly because of the topic, I'm teaching a computer software to undergrads for the next week and a half. It's a nice break from the usual life I lead. For the first time in my life I actually would consider being a teacher (I absolutely never would have EVER thought I would want or even consider being a teacher). I think it must be because the students are college students, not children or high schoolers. But to become a professor would require a PhD, and I know Brad doesn't want me doing any more school. Oh well, I guess I will stick to my two weeks of teaching. Maybe I can be a community college teacher, do they need PhDs? More options to look into in case the economy continues to suck for planners. But for now I will just go to bed and try to sleep through the annoying chirping coming from one of 4 smoke detectors...which have all been disconnected from batteries and the wall...yet they're still chirping. I have since put one in my car, one back on the ceiling and two are laying on the counter. Hopefully out place doesn't burn down tonight.
