Smart kids and Wedding!
So I was looking forward to this weekend so much, just to end up sick. It started out well, on Friday morning my friend and fellow math major Orfa and I went to a Montessori school in Malvern with one of our favorite math professors, Dr. Molli Jones. Her son goes there. It was so awesome and the kids were so smart! We observed a class that was full of second graders through fifth graders. I didn’t understand how that worked out at first, but after seeing it first hand I was amazed! We were mostly interested in the methods the students used to learn math, and while watching them work in small groups or independently, they explained to us exactly what they were doing. I was stunned to find a forth grader taking the square root of a number in the hundreds and a third grader solving a long division problem in the millions!
Saturday was the worst day of my sickness. I felt terrible and cold all day. I went to my friends wedding, and of course, like any other girl, I cried. It was a beautiful ceremony and she looked like a princess!! No wait, she looked like a queen! I went to the reception, but left early because I didn’t feel well.
Last night was super fun because it was my first rehearsal in a while for Godspell, and all of the philosophers were there! It was so fun, and I had forgotten how much I love the stage in my few months away. I also took head shots of Ken, who plays Jesus because he wont be there tonight for the official headshot night. Of course some of the other principals got involved in headshots last night. Theatre people are such hams! (and I include myself in that too!! Tee-hee.)
So besides crazy homework-ness, that is what I have been up to. Sorry I didn’t write on Sunday like I normally do, but I totally forgot because I was in bed sick all day! Check back next week, I’m sure I will have something interesting to talk about then too!!
