3 March 2011

My life is finally shaping up quite a bit. Suicidal tendencies are slowly fading, which is definitely a huge plus. I'm doing my homework,and I've gone to all my classes this week. I'm also doing the reading for classes, and reading the newspaper. I've also been doing yoga at least once a day for at least 10 minutes. I've been feeling a lot better about myself too. I think that's partially from the exercise, the medicine, and going to all my classes, and doing all my homework. I'm currently working on a paper for English over the book The Red Badge of Courage by Stephen Crane. It was a magnificent book, that definitely met up to all of my expectations. The paper is about whether or not we think that the main character, Henry has grown psychologically. I am taking the stand point that yes, Henry started to grow psychologically, however, when he returned to his comrades, he regressed back into his self-centered mind frame. I have lots of textual evidence for this opinion, and I'm very excited to begin working on this paper.
My TDP class will be ending soon. We only meet two more times, and we only have one more assignment. I have done all of the assignments except one, which was only worth five points. It's also a pass or fail course, so there is no way I could fail. Even if I skip the last assignment. We only have to receive 35 points out of 50. So far, I have received probably 40 points. I'll know by Monday. She has yet to grade 2 assignments, although one of them isn't due until Sunday night. I am very excited to pass this class. It won't affect my GPA at all, which is disappointing, but it's a gen ed down for my degree, something I am excited about. Changing my major to education was a brilliant idea. I cannot wait to begin taking more TDP classes, and learning more about teaching and history. I definitely feel like this fits me wonderfully, and it's a career I will deeply enjoy, and will find deeply rewarding as well. I am finally very excited for the future, which once again seems to hold lots of possibilities!(:
