Bittersweet

Today was the last day of classes which is a relief but also sad.

Sad? When have I ever been sad that a semester is over?

Never. Although this semester was different,

I actually enjoyed it!

I made new friends,

I enjoyed learning what I was learning,

I loved my classes,

the workload was bearable

and on and on.

Mostly why I enjoyed this semester so much

was because of the people I met and the teachers that impacted my life greatly.

Also because it excited me for what I want to do; to teach.

This semester was one of many firsts:

I wrote my first children's book,

I was in my first play,

(This is my drama class that performed "Bartholomew and the Oobleck ")

I wrote my first lesson plan... and a million more.

I got my first A on a math test.

I recorded my first singing album,

(ok not really, I just had to record myself singing for music which wasn't pretty).

I wrote my first song and made it into a book,

It was my first semester that I got an A on majority of my tests minus math.

I taught PE in an elementary school for the first time

I was called Mrs. Brinton for the first time,

(really just Mrs. B by my PE students)

and you get the point....

This is a picture of some of my dear friends I made this semester.

we went to get ice cream at Macey's for Juliets b-day.

Anyway, I really enjoyed this semester and am sad it's over,

but it will be good to move on.

p.s. as you can tell this is mostly a Tawni blog that involves Robert.
