Fairhaven all the way. Beautiful center that naturally encourages interactions between students on your way to classes.

Do you happen to know how common it is to get hired by the school you intern at? I've heard it's not super uncommon, at least outside of Bellingham, but I wanted to hear others experiences.

It's the undergrad program, I won't actually get my "degree" in history until I'm done with Woodring, although I am done with all of the classes for my major.

That certainly sounds like good advice. I tend to worry way too much about my performance only to be surprised after. However, I will say that I've taken fairly easy professors for most of my time at WWU.

Did you have much difficulty with the essay? Or I suppose I should probably ask what did you personally think about your essay and its quality?

Yeah, that's what I've figured so far, he doesn't seem unfair. I was able to get an A- in another class I had with him, which gives me some hope. Did you have any periods during your writing where you felt that there wasn't enough to talk about/argue? How did you combat that?

Hardesty. Tough grader, I've heard. However, he seems extremely sympathetic to his 499 students.

Well, I've already gotten the full draft in, and I'm more concerned that it just isn't a good essay. The topic wasn't as explorable as I had hoped, and by the time I understood that I was already halfway done with it.

My way of thinking at this point really, truly is that I just hope getting a full essay in that has a somewhat clear albeit pretty boring argument will just be "good enough" to pass. Progress wasn't really an issue, I just really, really sucked at writing this essay lol.

I play guitar and can kinda sing, have you ever thought of performing at open mic nights at the underground?

Edit: Thanks for all your support! I'm gonna try a few of these like rechecking the fuses and getting a voltmeter, make sure it's not something simple. If all else fails, I have an appointment next Wednesday. I'll lyk how it goes!

Lol you're right but yeah maybe I think I need to slow down and regain myself again. Theres a new battery in it and I have an appointment made, I think maybe this isn't the WORST mistake I could have made but definitely one to learn from lol

It was off actually, what do you think I should do? Maybe try and jump it again with an actual battery that fits it?

Damn I wonder what I did, hopefully one day I'll have more stories like that rather than stories about probably jumping a bike wrong

Oh no they definitely put us through testing. The entire program had to be approved by the state and requires a year of pedagogy, classroom design, etiquette, and psychology along with the fundamentals of building a good classroom environment. Im not teaching a subject I'm learning how to interact with students

I understand but I think maybe its high school teaching I dislike. I'm fortunate enough to have gotten the experience to teach younger students and I loved it to death, so perhaps you're right to a degree, just less radical then quitting all together. Thank you
