get better soon! 26639. wabbit - 12/8/2011 4:33:47 AM Yikes, JaH, I hope you're feeling better.
Arky and iiibbb, be forewarned...this could be you! 26640. iiibbb - 12/9/2011 5:25:37 PM Ahh fuck those guys
;) 26641. Ms. No - 12/13/2011 6:30:46 AM I just sent off my final paper for my Masters' classes and a bigger pile of crap I've never written in my life. I hope to god neither of my professors actually reads the thing.
But it is done and I am finished until I take my orals in January.
I'm both immensely relieved and horribly ashamed at this moment. 26642. Ms. No - 12/13/2011 6:31:53 AM BTW, it's not a thesis, it's just a paper combining information learned and researched for two classes - one on Education Law and one on Urban Education. 26643. arkymalarky - 12/13/2011 6:34:49 AM Congrats on getting done! I'm so glad to be past all that. I love school but not with an overloaded work schedule. I don't know how you've stayed sane. 26644. arkymalarky - 12/13/2011 6:36:45 AM And education programs are getting worse every year. It's depressing what's happening to the system. 26645. Ms. No - 12/13/2011 6:47:16 AM I very nearly haven't --- stayed sane, that is. I had to take a week of release time because I was having panic attacks in my sleep.
Of course I was at school every day working on curriculum and lesson planning, but just to not have to be with the Freshmen for a week, and then following with a week off at Thanksgiving, kept me from literally walking off the job. 26646. arkymalarky - 12/13/2011 7:18:36 AM I hope next semester is better. I feel for you with your schedule and situation. 26647. arkymalarky - 12/13/2011 7:19:43 AM If I can help in any way or if you ever want to talk, holler at me. 26648. vonKreedon - 12/13/2011 5:21:04 PM Hey Cos - Congrats and way to hang in there. We need passionate, creative, dedicated teachers more than we need anything else. Thanks for you and Arky being there. 26649. arkymalarky - 12/13/2011 7:57:36 PM The system is driving them out, unfortunately, VK. 26650. iiibbb - 12/13/2011 8:34:49 PM Congrats Ms No good luck.
26651. arkymalarky - 12/16/2011 6:50:25 AM Another game suggestion for iphone or droid: quell. A solo casual game. I LOVE it. 26652. PsychProf - 12/16/2011 3:38:14 PM "I hope to god neither of my professors actually reads the thing. "
It is no wonder our MA-Education system, at all levels, is such a disaster. Straight A's and degrees for all, knowledge and performance be damned.
26653. iiibbb - 12/16/2011 4:34:43 PM The main source of mistakes in my dissertation were caused by a complete reformatting demanded by my committee the day of my defense and a week to get all materials to the graduate school. 26654. iiibbb - 12/17/2011 4:00:31 AM Bless my MiL's heart...
My wife bought B a book about X-mas and Chanukah called "my two holidays". Her mom said it made her want to vomit. My wife even let's fly with a few anti-Christian sentiments every so often. Mostly because talking about religion offends their sensibilities.
I've never said a peep about my Christian background to them and only support my son being Jewish. They are oblivious to the comments they occasionally make stinging a bit.
Ah well.
