Have You Lost Your Mind? Why No I Haven't.

Hello Blogland,
Today I am jumping on my soap box per usual but it should hopefully be a little entertaining. Last night I was at a gathering of members of my pledge class when one of the girls parents dropped by for a little visit.  Upon determining The Redhead's brother was playing football against the school I am student teaching at Red's momasked me if I had lost my mind.  I replied as politely as possible with "Ma'm what do you mean have I lost my mind?"  She replied "well education is a terrible field to be in and my goodness that school is quite terrifying" First off, no I have not lost my mind I am absolutely obsessed and in love with teaching.  Now do not mistake that I love all of my students, in fact that is the oppossite several of them are about to drive me over the edge but for the most part I love each of them dearly.  So no I have not lost my mind by jumping into the wide world of education. And let's get serious the school Im at is legit like not that bad. Iactually love it. and with that being said. We all need to have more faith in education... after all its bringing us the accomplishments of tomorrow.
