Back into the Swing

How to start off....Merry Christmas? Happy New Year? Welcome to January? Hahaha it is now 2009 and the start of a new semester. Christmas was excellent as I was able to enjoy being with family and I got to be very lazy! The New Year came around and I am excited for the year but not necessarily for 2009 because I am not a huge fan of odd numbers, weird I know. Anyway I am back to the reality of school and it hit me pretty hard. This semester I am doing a student teaching in a preschool lab and it is going to be intense. Even though I know that it is a lot of work I am still very excited! I enjoy planning and working with the kids is very rewarding. This semester is really going to challenge me and force me to manage my time well. This first week I have had a lot of doubts and things that I have worried about. Then yesterday I went to a devotional given by President Thomas S. Monson and it was exactly what I needed to hear. I am now planning on incorporating Formula W into my life. "Work will win when wishy washy wishing won't!" Overall though I am happy and trying to enjoy every moment of my life as a college student. It is also worth mentioning that my roomate Jenni turns 21 this week and she is very excited! I seriously have some of the best roomates around. Well I can't guarantee I will be posting a lot this semester but I will try to post a few preschool stories because I know there will be some good ones!
