A Good Weekend on Campus

30 January 2012 ~ Comments Off

Spending time with quality friends is the reason why I go back to SAU to visit.

Last weekend, I had to leave Spring Arbor University for home to start student teaching on Monday. One week later and I am on week two of my experience in the classroom. From the way things looked in the first two days of student teaching, I never thought I would see the weekend. I love student teaching, but the schedule has made each day feel much longer than it really is and creates the illusion that the week consists of many more hours than originally planned.

Since the week has been filled with so much to do in the classroom, a much needed rest is sometimes appropriate. While I am finding myself more intrigued by what I am experiencing at South Meadows Elementary School, it is good to have something to do outside of the busy experience. This past weekend, my outside adventure was a trip back to Spring Arbor University. There, I truly felt rested and a sense of comfort away from student teaching life.

During my short stay at Spring Arbor, I caught up with friends, played ultimate frisbee in Dunckel Gym, played Dutch blitz, and rested. I stayed on campus from Friday afternoon until Saturday night, and every minute was spent enjoying the weekend as I had hoped. Now, as week two of student teaching has begun, I hope I can continue to find more opportunities to visit Spring Arbor.

May next weekend offer another opportunity to visit,
