So now I have 20 credit hours. 3 lit classes, 2 of which are in foreign languages, 2 language classes, and 2 credits of tutoring and mentoring. I find it a little hard to believe that I'm going to be considered a mentor for these new college students, but I'm going to give it a shot anyway. Plus, it'll look good on my JET application, which I'll be able to get in a week or so. I'm not sure how Bunnyman's gonna feel about me being gone for a whole year, no weekend pickup, no conversations every day. He takes it hard when I'm half an hour away. Who knows how he'll take it when I'm several timezones and oceans away. Still, this all hinges on whether or not I get accepted. I really have it in my head that this is what I want to do after I graduate.
Today I had two classes, not a big deal. Until this ended up being supplemented with an hour and a half of showing Japanese students how to say "arrrr" like a pirate. Then another hour of talking about learning methods and how history majors are likely to become either teachers or managers at a Starbucks. My day left me quickly. I hope I'm able to maintain this level of involvement without sinking into a rut like I did before. Granted, with the tutoring program, I'll have other people depending on me. That's usually a good kick in the ass.
My senior year, I decide to become a real college student. We'll see how long this lasts.
I have reading to do. Ta.
