School starts today. I get my first students. I'm 90% excited, 8% nervous, and 2% scared...I think. Maybe I'm 90% scared, 8% excited, and 2% nervous. Who knows. Anyway, it's going to be a great day. I can't wait.
On a side note, was anyone else a little disappointed with the Olympic Closing Ceremony last night?

Church Search Week 2
We visited the same church again today. We thought the preaching was awesome, but there was something about the atmosphere that just didn't click with us. We may go back, but for the next few weeks, we're going to try out some other churches. Pray for us as we seek out the local body that God has for us to commune with.

Freshman Orientation
Tomorrow morning is Freshman Orientation at NMBHS. I'll finally get to meet some of my first students. I'm pretty pumped about it. It should be awesome!

It's Been A Busy, Busy Week
Well, this past week has been incredibly busy.
Last Monday, I spent a good bit of time finishing getting our house set up.
Tuesday, my new teacher orientation for Horry County Schools started. We spent the day attending classes and meeting other new teachers. It was worthwhile, but it was draining.
Wednesday, I continued my orientation by first meeting with all of the new high school math teachers for the district in the morning and with all of the new teachers at North Myrtle Beach High in the afternoon.
Thursday and Friday I actually got to work in my room at North Myrtle Beach High. It's a pretty cool room: oddly shaped, but pretty sizable. I also got my list of classes which I'll be teaching, and it's all Algebra, all the time.
This week is more of the same. There'll be some staff development classes and some time spent working in my classroom. Hopefully it will be completely ready by the end of the week. One week from tomorrow class starts.
Yesterday and today have been a nice break. Sarah and I got to spend some time together (which is always good).
Hopefully once I'm in the swing of things, I'll have more time to sit, relax, and possibly even blog. Until then, don't hold it against me.

Moving Day 2
Well, we're in Conway. Everything is in the house. Now, we just have to go through the numerous boxes we have. The important thing is that Sarah and I now live in the same city again, under the same roof! YAY!!!
