I can go with the flow...

Well, this is my second installment, and it's about damn time. To be fair though, I've been pretty damn busy. I just started my teaching internship in January, so basically I'm a teacher without the pay, and I'm still working part-time at Sears. Needless to say my schedule has been a little hectic. Even now I should be correcting some assignments but I just can't force myself to sit down and do it.

The internship itself is going pretty good; it has its ups and downs. My cooperating teacher treats me pretty good one minute, then treats me like crap the next. To be honest, I'm not really enjoying myself. I know, I know, I shouldn't be enjoying myself, I should be doing my best to learn the teaching art, be serious, and become the best teacher I can be, but if this is the occupation that I am going to have for the rest of my life I would like to get some enjoyment out of it. Oh well, maybe I'll get used to it. Maybe when I get out into substituting I'll be fine. I certainly hope so, cuz this is what I'm going to be doing for a very long time.

As for everything else, well Kate and I are doing great. I couldn't ask for anything better. My writing has gone down hill after a short spurt, but I did manage to enter a story into the Arts and Letters competition. If I win, I will get 750 bones, and will be published. Wee! Also, I've been non-stop feeding my DVD collection, now reaching the significant number of 115. Sheesh, so much money!

Currents:
Watching: Chappelle Show season 2, Titus season 1 &2, Batman Begins, and Austin Powers: Goldmember. (New acquisitions).

Listening: The Tragically Hip - Yer Favorites

Reading: David Foster Wallace - Oblivion

Playing: Smackdown vs. Raw 2006

Eating: East Side Mario's Pizza

Wishing: I could get published, and become a famous author! :P

Anyway, I must go do some school work (yay!), but this entry was longer than the other so I'm getting there. All I need now is to up the frequency.

Peace out,
Your friendly neighbourhood ogre,
Jondre the Giant.
