Time for a change...

Well, here it is. Yet another attempt at blogging. I feel pretty sure that I will actually have some decent material pretty soon, what with teaching college students and all. Frankly, I'm slightly freaking out at this point. We start training tomorrow morning at 9am and I basically have no idea what to expect. Training will last a week and a half, then they throw us in with the sharks. Have I mentioned that I have never had any teaching experience before? Sure. I've tutored, but this is a whole new ballgame. I'm not really concerned about the material, it's more the students. It's strange to me that my students will be basically the same age as me and in some cases, even older. I'm sure that I'm just worrying for no reason and everything will be fine.

Other than that, I'm completely settled into Bloomington now. I really think that I'm going to like it here. It seems to be just the right size. I love my apt and campus is very close (about 10min by bike). Although, the first time I rode my bike to campus, I realized exactly how out of shape I am. The second day seemed better, and I'm going to make myself do it again today, I hope. haha. As for now, I need a break from the computer. Time for a good book. Is 2pm too early for a glass of wine? Books are always better with a glass of wine. :-)
