One final down

Today, since I had finished all my other homework over the weekend and on Monday, I decided to write-out my take-home final in my Inclusion class.  It took three hours, and when I was done, I couldn’t move my left arm at all!  My hand was cramping so much from three hours of writing, and my elbow was inflamed from tennis.  I took some Motrin to try to calm the swelling down.

In class this evening, the teacher noted that “someone” had already turned in their final and had set the bar very high – I got a perfect score, yeah, and some very kind comments like: “exceptional,” “profound,” and “inspirational.”  It’s hard to do much better than that!  When I get my take home final for Health on Thursday, I’ll finish it up quickly as well.  After that, it’s one group presentation on Tuesday and then I’m done!  I’ve turned in everything else already.

Yeah, I got a call from the district today.  I have an interview on Friday for substitute teaching.  I consider this a very good thing, since this district is supposedly not hiring.  If I can get in, then I can gain some valuable teaching experience, and meet many of the teachers who I hope will become my peers.
