How Time Flies....

It's been awhile since I've done an actual blog post on here. I have another blog (which also hasn't been updated in awhile) which is meant to chronicle my Adventures in Special Education. Lots of things have happened over the summer and into the fall and I'll attempt to log them here:

• I found out I would no longer have a job with the Mukilteo School District this fall. I found this out in February, which made what came next a lot easier.

• I applied and was accepted to the University of Washington program in Special Education: High Incidence. This is basically (for me) a program in which I will receive my Special Education endorsement and is geared toward teaching those with learning disabilities. It's pretty much what I did in the Bronx, but this time I may have a clue what I'm doing!

• Mandy and Darren got married!! I spent six weeks in Jersey leading up to the wedding. It was awesome - a totally perfect day. 82 and sunny, not too humid (for Jersey, in August), and everything ran smoothly. Mandy looked incredible in her dress, Darren looked nervous (but he loosened up), and the reception hall was a-maz-ing! We had a lot of fun. It's weird, though, now Mandy doesn't have the same last name as me. Oh well, I'm just happy they are finally married. Congrats you two!! Now, get started on those little nieces and nephews!!

• I started school at the end of September. So far, I am three weeks in and it's a heck of a lot harder than NYU. However, that's a good thing. I always thought that NYU was a bit overrated and the program was a bit dumbed down, so this is refreshing. Of course, it could also be that I've been out of school for four years - the longest I've been out of school since I was a toddler. Oh well, I'm learning a lot and I'm enjoying it quite a bit. Only three and a half more quarters to go!

That's about it. I'm heading off to class in a few minutes, last one for the week. I really enjoy my Fridays off. So do the dogs, who take the opportunity to snuggle and sleep on my bed. Life is good.

• 19:01 Grad school is quite a bit more challenging the second time around (in a good way). What does that say about NYU? Can I get my money back? #
