So, yeah, haven't written in this thing in awhile. Brief catch up: Graduated from UNC in May with my math degree, got into the MAT program, and have spent the last several months adjusting to my new role as a graduate student. That brings us to now. I'm loving grad school, the education classes are a nice change from all that math in undergrad ( Read more... )

42 days until graduation! Haha!! That's the coolest ever. And it's been forever since I've posted here, but I've just been so busy. Life is good, I'm loving it!! Peace out!

Alright, y'all, I'll keep this short and sweet: Happy New Year, Everybody!!!!!!!! :-D

Wow, went way too long without posting in this thing. Then again, nothing has really changed much. Trying to do the whole grad school application thing. Fun stuff, lemme tell ya. Just as annoying as original college applications, only now there's this whole, 'oh yeah, I need this to actually have a teaching license - bummer' thing going on. ( Read more... )

I just have to say, I love college. My roommate and I just went out into the hallway and played football with a roll of paper towels. It was crazy. We just tossed them back and forth and acted like a quarterback and receiver and just basically acted goofy. Thank goodness no one came down the hall and saw us, because that would’ve been mildly ( Read more... )

So, after one week of classes, here's what I've found. Coaching rocks. I love it. I love my girls. They're great girls, even if they do sometimes think they're 'privileged', they are so much fun to coach and be around. And my observation rocks, the teacher is a former UNC TF who is teaching AP Calc BC, which is SO much fun to watch! And, the ( Read more... )

First day of classes is over with. And I'm exhausted. I don't think I would be nearly this tired if it weren't for the fact that I have been coaching all week and we had a match last night and a tri-match tonight. And I've got class on top of that. It's been a blast, don't get me wrong. The coaching thing rocks. I like the girls, I love the ( Read more... )

So, I'm back in Chapel Hill. We got everything moved in this morning. We woke Kacie up, too, which was kinda not cool, but kinda funny. Harassing the roommate is always fun, especially when I haven't had the chance to since May. Move-in wasn't bad, especially since we were moving in at around 8 o'clock. No one else really wants to be up that ( Read more... )

So, there's only a few days until I have to head back down the hill to school. And I'm excited, but I'm also kinda bummed. I do this every year. I'm bummed until I get there and get moved in, then I'm alright. It's just knowing that I've gotta drive all that way and do the whole move-in thing that bums me out. But, Kacie's birthday is Tuesday ( Read more... )

Holy crap, I just finished my Junior Enrichment for Teaching Fellows, and I did Outward Bound. It was insane. It was cool, but it was insane. I never knew I could hurt that much, and I never knew I could smell that bad. I mean, seriously, before the first day was over, I was in pain, and I reeked. We were backpacking with 40+ pound packs, and ( Read more... )
