School

Well, school has started and is in full swing. My students have started, and I have started as well on my 9 month internship. Matt also started school today for film editing. He has about 3 semesters left, and I will be done with my Montessori training in May. It is going to be a crazy year for the both of us!!! Matt came home today after a long day of class and talking to professors, and found out that he is probably going to get dropped from one of his classes because he is not allowed to take two editing classes at the same time...Lame because now he could be dropped from financial aide and everything because it will put him below the full time student hours. He is doing everything he can to find another class or stay in the one he has signed up for...SCC messed up on that one!!! He is doing so well with film and he is going to be an amazing film editor!!! My class was totally overwhelming on Saturday with too much information in one day!!! I am looking forward to my internship and working with the kids and actually giving lessons in the traditional Montessori way, but its going to be so much work!!! So worth it in the end though. We have the best parents and kids this year, I seriously could not ask for a better class to work with for my internship, so that is a blessing in itself. If any of you saw our class last year...you would understand why this is such a blessing and relief to us!! I actually enjoy going to work and feel as though work is my stress free zone because the class is so quiet and the kids are actually doing what they are supposed to be doing! I should probably knock on wood at this point, because now they are all going to settle in and get super comfy with us, and get fussy......
We have a few things coming up this Fall that we are looking forward to...Its actually going to be pretty busy. On Labor Day weekend Matt and I are going up to Flagstaff for the Coconino County Fair (whoooo hooo!) and to see his parents and hang out in cool weather. I am excited to just get away for the weekend. We are also super excited for Minnesota in October for Alysia (my cousin) and Dan to get married. We need a vacation so bad after everything we went through and Minnesota is going to be so nice! Especially in October where we can actually experience Fall!!! We are also trying to plan a trip to either Disneyland or Vegas, we cant decide which one because we will prob spend the same amount of money at either one, so its just basically picking where we want to go and a weekend we can actually do it where I dont have class and he doesnt have a ton of homework or projects. He is a very busy boyfriend :) As far as updates go, that is about it!! I am still trying to eat healthier and live a healthier life so I can get back to feeling really good. I am also really focusing on not stressing so much and that seems to be working well :) I love you all, Happy Tuesday!
