I started today by parking my car at the garage.\u00a0 They’ll be putting in a new master cylinder later today.\u00a0 Next stop was putting up tables and chairs at church for an event.\u00a0 While there, I also met the pastor we’re interviewing this week.\u00a0 He seemed nice.\u00a0 I had a couple of hours free when I got home so I did some homework, but I didn’t get to the projects that are due next week.\u00a0 I guess I’ll tackle them over the weekend.\u00a0 At 1PM, my car was ready so I biked to the shop and got my car.\u00a0 Not long after that, I went to NHU to talk to my student teacher placement person.\u00a0 She was half an hour late (a miscommunication on scheduling), but we did meet.\u00a0 It turns out that one of my classes is only two units, not three, so I’m one unit short of being able to student teach in January.\u00a0 Bummer!\u00a0 She’ll try to sneak me in anyway, but I don’t know that she can.\u00a0 She has a perfect master teacher for me, she says, though he is in the South Bay, far, far away from me.\u00a0 Oh well, it’s only six weeks.\u00a0 The six weeks after that, she’s going to try to get me into the school right by my house (actually, she had just come from there and had just placed her first student teacher there; sort of funny then that we both drove half an hour from the same location to meet up!).\u00a0 Since she asked, I gave her the names of the top teachers in that school.\u00a0 Having kids at that school, and a wife just across the street at the middle school really helps.\u00a0 My adviser did tell me that it is vital that I start substituting at the high school, if I am to have any chance of being a student teacher there.\u00a0 I’m working on it!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
