Day 1.

I don't think I've been this happy since the beginning of March.

I have never fit in so well somewhere. These crazy teachers have the same personality and humor as myself. Not to mention all of the administration (minus one female) are middle aged men who are very easy on the eyes to say the least. Needless to say, my first day was great and the kids aren't even in the classroom yet!

We had meetings all day and it was cool to be in on the School Improvement meeting as well as the Toolbox meeting which is essentially curriculum. I also attended the faculty meeting where we talked about relationships, commitments and engagement. It sounds like a marriage, I know. But I promise it was all about the kids!

Volleyball was interesting. The school's gym was ruined this summer when the water table crept up into the floor. Not even kidding. The school is located on some old farm land. Haha. It sucks that we don't have a main gym, but I will say that the auxillary gym is very nice. I got to be reunited with a bunch of NVA girls and I know the Varisty and JV coaches from NVA as well. I was also asked if I was in high school. I was a bit offended, but I do have a height disadvantage on these girls. I'm definitely looking forward to the season! We will just need to work on their lifting form. It's absolutely awful and with me being a former lifter, it really irked me to see almost all of the girls lifting wrong. Oh well.. it's a goal that can be accomplished by the end of the season!

Need sleep, but I'm so happy!
