AAAAAAAAAAAARGH!

And today shall henceforth be known as the Day of Disaster, for all of time. And it shall be commemorated yearly on the first of May, by myself running around in little circles, waving my arms and screaming. What is this disaster you speak of, I hear you ask? Suffice to say I lost some stuff. Fairly important stuff at that.

So hey, I had a pretty shocking day today, and have spent most of the evening in tears. But I had a shower and a Red Bull, and you know what? I taught a kickass Word Building lesson today. Totally kickass. And things can mostly be replaced.

Tops Again

Like pretty much anyone, I go through cycles of confidence. After my third lead-in day at prac, I was sure I was going to be the crappiest teacher in the world. I was no good with kids, I can't teach, etc, etc.
Today is the opposite. Had to do a Sunday School thing on the fly, and survived (with Joel's help) - I'm going to be an excellent teacher, hooray. But that could just be the adrenaline speaking.

Our student pastor did a children's talk with shoes this morning, that I immediately wanted to steal. I'd love to do it as a team talk with my sister, actually. Between us we could come up with a reasonably entertaining variety of shoes...
