Dear Future Students,

In just about one month, I will be in your classroom, spending 7 hours each day with you, Monday through Friday. I know I will learn so much from this experience, and I cannot wait to begin this new journey with you all! I've spent 7 semesters sitting in classrooms, learning about how to be a successful teacher. Now, I finally get to practice and apply what I have learned.

Like I said, I am beyond excited to begin our journey together. However, you should know that I am also extremely nervous. I do not know what you will all think of me. Of course, I hope you like me. I am worried that it may be a difficult adjustment for some of you. I am worried that some of you may have behavior problems, and that I will not know what to do if you act out, misbehave, or shut down. I am worried that I may not be able to figure out a different way to teach you something if you do not understand it. Above all, I am worried that some days, I may let you down. I never, ever want to let you down.

I know there will be some rough days where I will end up in tears in my bedroom, questioning where I went wrong, what I could've done better/different, or what even happened. I also know there will be many unforgettable, amazing, happy days where I feel successful and confident in my teaching abilities. I can't wait to see you have that "aha" moment and witness the incredible moment where I see my hard work pay off as you grasp a concept.

Even though I may only be with you for a relatively short time, I want to make it the absolute best that it can be, both for myself, and more importantly, for all of you. I promise to work as hard as I possibly can for you. I promise to never give up, even when I become frustrated. I promise to always give 110%, even if I am tired, sick, stressed, nervous, or upset. No matter what difficulties we may come across, know that I see potential in each and every one of you. I believe in you. I know you are capable of great things. I hope to have as profound of an impact on your lives as I know you're about to have on mine.

Love,

Your Future Student Teacher

If I have learned one thing in my lifetime, it is that friends are a privilege. No one is required to give you their company and yet there is some sort of shared connection that keeps you together. And from that friendship, you may even find yourself lucky enough to have a few more friends, thus forming a group. Here are just a few signs that prove your current friend group is the ultimate friend group.

When it comes to television, there’s very few sets of on-screen siblings that a lot of us can relate to. Only those who have grown up with siblings knows what it feels like to fight, prank, and love a sibling. Ross and Monica Geller were definitely overbearing and overshared some things through the series of "Friends," but they captured perfectly what real siblings feel in real life. Some of their antics were funny, some were a little weird but all of them are completely relatable to brothers and sisters everywhere.

Every kid in college and/or high school dreams of summer the moment they walk through the door on the first day back in September. It becomes harder and harder to focus in classes and while doing assignments as the days get closer. The winter has been lagging, the days are short and dark, and no one is quite themselves due to lack of energy and sunlight. Let's face it: life is ten times better in the summertime.
