What a week!

So the first week of school is behind me now and I can say I feel pretty positive about this year. Unfortunately, I still have no air conditioning. I got excited on Monday morning because I heard it running outside the door of my room but when I opened the door it was just pooooooouring hot air in. I guess he "thought" he fixed it. I've been told that a ticket has been put in to have my air looked at again, but I know a teacher at my school who went two year without air. I think I'll have to do something about it before it goes on that long. I actually have gotten a parent on my side and she has said she will go to the board for me if she has to.

Anyway, right now I have 15 students, but I anticipate more creeping in until Labor Day. That always seems to be what happens. I have a great little group this year. They have some good personalities. I also have a really LOW group this year. Aside from maybe 3 or 4 really bright students, I'm going to have an up hill battle ahead of me. That's ok though, because I they all right now seem to have awesome attitudes. If we can all remain positive I think great things can happen. I plan on taking some picture with my class just as soon as it cools off. Hehe.

In the meantime, I have also been working my butt of getting ready for my Jazzercise audition. Ann (my instructor) has been really great and has let me start teaching some routines during class. I actually taught 4 in a row on Saturday. The more that I do it, the more comfortable I am with being in front of people dancing, talking on a mic, and queing the moves. It's quite a challenge, but I'm getting there. Yesterday I ordered my Jazzercise top and exercise pants that I'm going to wear to the audition. Ann and I both though it would be a good idea to wear the logo to show that I'm interested. Here are pictures of what I ordered.
I liked this hot pink top because of the back, the logo really stands out, and it matches the pink on my workout shoes. Also I have a really great sports bra that will be totally hidden by the razor back straps in the back.
Here are the capri's I ordered. They are wide leg and flare which are my favorite kind. Hopefully this will help my efforts!!! I can't wait to get my order in the mail!

Anyway, thanks to all who have been encouraging me through this audition process. You guys have been amazing. Just taking the time out to mention that I'm doing a good job is helping me become more and more confident.

Well, between school, grad school, jazzercise practice and just life in general things are kind of crazy. But I'm trying to take every moment I can to just breath. I will try to post more this week and update everyone on how things are going. Hope everyone has a great week!

Happy Blogging!
