super awesome day (for one of the first times this semester, so sorry if this post is braggy).

(1) i totally rocked my christopher columbus lesson plan presentation this morning! i was really nervous because it’s my first time writing a lesson plan, and my first time “teaching” one. but i felt pretty at ease throughout the lesson, the same sort of feeling i have when i explain gym games or craft projects at work. for my overall grade on the lesson i got an A, which is really awesome.

and to top it all off, my professor talked to me afterwards and said my lesson plan was “exceptionally well-done.” he asked me where i went last year, i said that i wasn’t a transfer, and he was surprised. apparently other schools start working on lesson plans freshman year, so when they transfer here they are ahead in that area. he actually said my lesson plan was teacher- or student teacher-level. that’s fresh.

(2) i finally figured out the calc proof i’ve been working on since last monday! a two page long proof, finished a half an hour before i had to leave for class. man, that was one glorious proof, once i figured it out.

(3) the chuck season premiere was tonight! for my and your reference, my shows for this year are as follows: the office, 30 rock, pushing daisies, house, bones, ncis, and chuck. so the only premieres i have left are pushing daisies on wednesday and 30 rock on october 30th. six hours of tv a week. phew!

(4) i think i’m going to spend tomorrow afternoon tagging my pre-wordpress and textpattern posts. but there are 781 of said posts, so it may take a few days. wish me luck!
