starting this new semester was so much easier than the first one-- i mean, duh, i already know the school and kids, etc, but the planning process was better, too.
every day i learn how to do this just a bit better. thinking back now to my first day is amazing. i have changed so much already.
we have one day left until mid-winter break and i am soooooo ready. in fact, i told the students in one of my harder-to-manage classes "look guys, in a few days i'm going to be in seattle, snowboarding and happy, and i know you guys have plans too. let's just get through the end of this week in one piece, okay?"
thinking about going back to seattle makes me so happy-- i miss it. i miss my friends, i miss the green and the mountains and the water. i know that i'll try to be back there sooner rather than later. i am already thinking about end-of-summer plans for the pacific northwest. i have some friends doing a portland-seattle-vancouver tour that sounds kinda dreamy.
one more day. its all i can do to not just pee myself with excitement.
