I went to school today and people kept asking me if I should actually be there. By lunchtime that had mostly worn off and some people said I was looking better than this morning. Hurrah!
I'm quite excited about school right now. There are only 4 and a bit weeks until the 'seniors' are GONE!! and then only 4 more weeks after that (dance dance dance).
That isn't why I'm excited. That is just a happy side note.
I am excited because my fourth formers are doing GENETICS AND HUMAN REPRODUCTION!!! Finally I get to teach the favourite stuff I did in my anatomy degree. I did 200 and 300 level papers in Human Reproduction and Development and I LOVED THEM! Soo cool. I mean I get to teach pleb Bio and Chem all the time, but somehow not as cool as it is going to be telling them about retrograde ejaculation! Bwahahahaha! They are also quite excited because "...hehe....sex...hehe..." and we get to do PUBERTY as well. Unless they get pulled out of it. I don't think anyone in my classes parents are going to do that. I've already had students ask me if they get to have a Question Box. Awesome! I have quite a good rapport with my little (altho some seem to have grown since last term) fourth formers. I just know they are going to ask the best (worst?) questions and I will finally get to use my TCol Health training also.
First we are doing Genetics tho. Which I am also doing with my Y11s. Should go write some notes now... or eat something... or have a nap... still a bit sick.
