Last night marked the beginning of the end of the semester. That's the only good thing about school starting again. There are technically only 7 weeks left of school. Whew!

Last night was a boring night. While I appreciate the material and I do find it useful, I can't stand the way the instructor presents it to us. It's amazing how hypocritical people can be. My instructor professes ensuring that the learning environment is interesting and fun, but I guess that only pertains to when you're teaching children not when you're teaching adults. This bothers me because teaching adults should be just as interesting and fun only with different materials. It would seem that the other CD instructors that I've come in contact with understand that and use their knowledge and experience with children and incorporate that into their instruction with adults. I appreciate that because it helps me to understand that maintaining an environment that is stimulating will aid ANYONE in learning the material! Keep my attention and I will learn! Keep my attention and I will want to come back! Keep my attention and I will be excited to learn!

Anyway, in other news, Berek had a long night the night before last. He didn't get home until 4 in the morning because he had a project that needed to be out a.s.a.p. It was a lonely evening, but nothing a good book couldn't cure. It was when it was time to sleep though that I laid awake because I was worried. I don't like it when he has to drive home that late/early! It makes for a disastrous combination when you think of the loonies that wind up on the road at those times of day. *sigh* So it didn't make things better when I kept snapping at him for his tardiness. I did apologize to him because I was being unreasonable. Fortunately for him, he did stay home yesterday considering he worked two days in one! So although he couldn't rest, he did relax and get some things done that he needed to get done.

Last night Berek made a roast and I cooked some lentils. It was a good dinner and we just talked and caught up on each other's day. It was nice. Then I went to bed and caught a great night of sleep!
