I am sitting here in awe of these last 3 1/2 years in Charlotte. As cliché as it sounds, it's amazing how fast time goes by. I only have 4 more Mondays of student teaching left. I've gotten my cap and gown and have taken my senior pictures. I'm tying up strings here and there as my time in Charlotte is coming to an end. It's crazy.
I've started getting my résumé together for potential future jobs and sifting through the DPI website for job openings. I'm beginning to mentally sort through my things that I can go ahead and take home before I officially move-out of my dorm for the last time in December. Things are getting real, y'all.
Student teaching has been a crazy, emotional, and rewarding learning experience. I've learned so much about myself in these last 2 1/2 months and I know these last few weeks are going to carry a lot of weight. I have grown very attached to my little 4th grade babies and my Cooperating Teacher has been extremely helpful and supportive! She has gone the extra mile to make sure I have everything I need and I could write a book with all the awesome advice she has given me. Literally, I should've been writing it all down for future reference. I'm so grateful for my student teaching placement! I'm wrapping up another chapter of my life and it's coming to a close: College is over in 34 short days.
*QUICK SUBJECT CHANGE TO PREVENT FURTHER SADNESS*
As usual, my BFF and forever roomie, Laura took my senior pictures! They say you meet your best friends in college and I would have to agree with "they." I'm crazy grateful for her (best)friendship and she is in almost every one of my college memories. If you're a Charlotte friend and need professional pictures taken, she is the one for you! Lar always does such a wonderful job and I think my mom has about 47 of her pictures framed around the house? Give or take.
Back to reality I go, just wanted to pop-in for a tiny update.
