A Typical Day

A typical day for me (Monday, Wednesday, & Friday anyways) begins at 8 a.m. I have my first class at 9 a.m., which is Jesus the Christ with Sr. Marielle Frigge. It is the last class I am taking to fulfill my RSP (religion) courses. It is a pretty tough course that is usually just meant for RSP majors, but with the extra help from Sr. Marielle, I'm doing just fine...I really enjoy the course. I then have a break at 10...which is usually filled with a nap or doing some last minute homework.

At 11 a.m., I have my Advanced Composition course with Dr. Jan Hausmann. I am getting my English minor, so this class is to help fulfill that minor. Not surprisingly, it is a class that mainly entails writing. We have journals every week as well as bigger essays...and also daily reading. I usually go to lunch then right after this class. I then spend the rest of my lunch break checking e-mails and relaxing until 1 p.m., which is when my next class begins.

At 1 p.m., I have my Middle School/Secondary Reading in the Content Areas course. Mary Miller teaches the class, and it consists of junior secondary education majors. We basically learn about many different teaching strategies and how to incorporate reading into the different content areas. I am a Secondary Education and History major...and this class is to help fulfill the Secondary Education major.

I then go to work-study from 2-3. I do work-study for the Faculty Secretary, Pam Schaefer. I do things like copying, faxing, doing the mail, typing, putting up bulletin boards, etc. Afterwards, I go to volleyball practice around 3:45-5:30 or 6...and then head to supper right after that. After supper, I spend the rest of my night doing homework! I'll explain what my Tuesdays and Thursdays consist of a later time.
