Last weekend actually marked my graduation from Marian University. It was definitely a huge mix of emotions throughout the weekend. Friday night was our school of education pinning ceremony, where our cohort of student teachers got to celebrate our accomplishments. I felt so blessed that so much of my family was able to make it to this night! I felt like I had a cheering section in the chapel! The ceremony was short...which is perfectly fine with me! And the guy who gave the speech from our class even made mention to our classes inside joke about "what's a crayon?"...my blog's namesake! (It's a long story!) I was able to take many pictures with my family and friends that came with and we all headed out for pizza and drinks at Joe's fox hut afterward. It was a lot of fun getting all of the family together and I enjoyed celebrating this goal of mine that has finally been achieved!
Saturday was the actual graduation ceremony, and I think I would have been a little more emotional had it not been SO HOT outside! It might not have been so bad, but we were all wearing black caps and gowns! (The only positive to that was that I didn't get very much sunburn!) Mostly I was just thankful for the ceremony to be over so I could take off my gown.
After more pictures and the ceremony my family headed home to get ready to go to Wisconsin Dells for the night. We packed up the van and headed towards the Wilderness! It was a fun night filled with water slides, a nice dinner, and falling asleep somewhat early!
Now I am back in the classroom until the end of the school year...I am glad to be able to finish out the year with my students and see how teachers typically end their year. Still no movement on the job front...lots of applications in but still no word on any interviews...but this is what I am keeping in mind...
That's all I know for now!
