I taught for the first time!
Today was my first ever time actually teaching students in a classroom at an actual school. Before y'all go crazy, I am on placement so I didn't just randomly walk into a classroom and hijack the place. I'm meant to be here, honest. And to be quite truthful, it wasn't fantastic but it also wasn't [...]
i want to possibly try something.
Recently, I've been thinking of possibly adding an 'education' series on my blog. Like, posts talking about the conferences I've been to, the learning that I'm currently doing, etc. If I haven't already told y'all, I'm a pre-service teacher! So, I felt like maybe I should do mini posts that talk about issues in education, [...]
the impermanence of your permanence.
it’s easier to say that you’re dead, instead of just, you left and never looked back. how ironic that the prospect of your death would be easier to handle than watching you walk away so casually, (a voluntary abandonment). it's easier to say that you're dead rather than remember how my mother's tears created permanent [...]

This Week In Books

I'm going to be completely honest with you...I am still reading the Dragon Kin series by G.A. Aiken and still loving it! But, [...]
Top 6 Series: ADULT FICTION EDITION
Why do I do this to myself? It is just too bloody hard, goddamn it. Ok, so I wrote my “Top 6 Series: YA EDITION” and people seemed to enjoy it - I have no idea why, but I appreciate it y’all! So I’m back! And I thought I might delve into the abyss that [...]
anna short for anxiety
I had an anxiety attack today. At work, while serving customers. My chest was a cage, my heart a prisoner gunning for escape. Boom. Boom. Boom. Boom. It scared me this time. I thought I was going to collapse right there while selling Christmas stamps. What a way to go, eh? The room [...]
