Blech

Well, so much has happened since the last post. Hardly any good either. Boo.

Had a huge falling out with a friend...not something easily bounced back from either.

While that seems to have taken up a lot of my thinking this past week, especially the past few days, I have been very productive in school. I wrote 4 papers in 5 hours tonight. Pretty, productive huh?

In my Jane Austen class, we have finished Emma, and are moving on to Northanger Abbey, it's short so I might like it better! Haha. I've actually debated whether I should download an audio version to listen to while I read. I've heard that helps with comprehension.

I should be getting my placement for my Practicum soon too. I may actually get placed in an English class, which I think will be good since I had a methods class in Social Studies, and not English.

Also, I'm going to try to get into contact with a few schools about teaching summer school. Wish me luck!

That's about the end of my news, it's been a rough week. BUT, this morning I found a quote that has inspired a lot of optimism: "When we wish for a life free from difficulties, remind us that oaks grow strong under contrary winds and diamonds are made from pressure."
