Wooooooooohoooooooooooooooooooooooooo!!!!
Well that feels good.
For those of you new to the Term III assignment...it's kind of a big deal. And it means, aside from a few scattered things, that I'm done with the fall semester.
TEP is a 10-month program, divided into 5 terms - one in the summer, two in the fall, two in the spring. As the overall program was described to me, the summer is tough, the fall is intense, and the spring is busy but smooth. So to be able to say that I'm done with the fall is prettttty exciting!
And classes are done, so I'm kinda sorta on vacation now. Excellent! But I'm not quite ready to relax yet.
In no particular order, here's 10 things on deck for me before the new year:

In no particular order, here's 10 things on deck for me before the new year:
- A couple more odds and ends assignments - a brief reflection for math and a short paper for Teaching Diverse Learners.
- My last day in my fall student teaching classroom (postponed from Thursday when my teacher was out), and my first visit to my spring classroom.
- Cooking - like the kind where it takes a long time and I'm really enthusiastic about the finished products - a whole bunch. And doing those other things I enjoy doing when I have time to do them - guitar, board games, maybe some writing.
- Exams - one to get certified for elementary grades in PA, and the other so that I can add on Social Studies secondary certification once I'm certified.
- Finding some way to start working exercise back into my life (I do martial arts, but the school I train at is going through renovations the next few weeks).
- Watching lots of movies - I don't go to a lot of movies in theaters, but this month I want to see Inside Llewyn Davis, American Hustle, The Hobbit, The Wolf of Wall Street, Anchorman 2, Dallas Buyers Club (and I'd also go see Oldboy, Philomena, Nebraska, All is Lost, Her, August: Osage County, or probably Thor). I won't actually see most of these, but I'm pretty amazed how many movies there are that I'm legitimately interested in. And I'm not even looking at Netflix yet...
- Earning some money - I freelance edit/proofread for a research company I used to work for, and although I haven't taken any work with them since the summer, they've got a report coming up for me this week.
- Cleaning. Cleaning everything I haven't cleaned in months. AKA cleaning everything.
- Probably a couple days in Virginia, with my mother, her dog (Zola) and her cat (Trouble)
- And, of course...blogging!
Prepare yourself.
