running with scissors

Dear school, I will learn to love you and embrace these 3 months and give the best that I can as a practicum teacher. Tomorrow is D-Day (should've been today but the headmaster wasn't in), and I will try to get up early and go to you and report for duty on time. I will try not to be so nervous and just smile my way through. But not too much smiling though, as the students will think I'm crazy. I will learn to love my students as well and be nice  to them, but at the same time instill the right amount of firmness.  I will put Mr. Ron Clark and Mr. Frank McCourt and also my mentor as my role models. I will..

Am too nervous to write any further. I wish my fellow trainee teachers the best and may we survive this ordeal with all of our body parts still attached! (heh heh)
