Update on the classes

Hi all.
Randy said I should blog every day.
Today I'm giving you an update on my classes.
1. Democracy and the American Dream
The teacher for this class is pretty nice. She canceled classes one week because she was sick so the lectures have been moving very quickly while she tried to catch up. I've gotten full points on all my reading responses so far. We have a fairly long take home exam due Wednesday that is a huge part of our grade, so wish me luck on that.
2. Spanish III
My teacher for this class is goofy. He doesn't care much about the actual work we do (its all assigned and organized by his boss, not him) but hes really great at teaching the class and explaining everything. In fact, I got a 95.5 on my first test! There are only 3 tests and a final exam in that class, so each one is worth a lot!! There's also an oral presentation, but I don't give mine until December.
3. Idealization and Satire
Luckily, I'm taking this class with my friend Michelle. I don't understand any of it. Neither does she. Some people in that class are majoring in Latin or The Renaissance or crazy stuff like that and totally understand everything. The professor, however is very nice and understands that most people can't name more than a few Greek philosophers or Renaissance poets off the top of their heads. I'm always lost in the discussions... but I got an A on my first paper and he said my conclusion was "excellent."
4. Foundations of Special Education
I obviously love this class because it is the most applicable to what I will be doing. However, I've felt a little behind at some points because everyone else is a Junior and sometimes they draw on their student teaching experiences or other education classes, and I can not do that yet. I still enjoy the lecture and discussions and today I got back our first test! I was so nervous but I made a 94!

Well, that is all. As you can see, I'm staying on top of my work and studying so far.
This weekend will be pretty exciting- I'm going with the Murphys to visit Allison at college on Friday. Sarah M, Dasha and I are going to an Avett Brothers concert this Friday. Then on Sunday, I'm working at a special event at the gym. I've never worked at an even before but we have to dress nice and we get $10/ hour!!!!
