you know you are an education major WHEN..any of the following events take place on your first day of class:
1. you play any version of a name game.
2. you sing a song. together. as a class.
3. your professor reads you a picture book. [authors and titles may vary]
4. you make a name tent.
5. you're asked to decorate your name tent.
6. you accomplish nothing beyond butcher paper lists of nice things you would like to learn.
7. you go around in a circle and state your name, major, minor, hometown, hopes, dreams, aspirations, and interesting facts about yourself. [i usually go with my record number of sneezes or my broken arm story.]
8. your textbooks include 5th grade chapter books.
[insert loud laughter from anyone who has never experienced these first days as an education major.]
i also forgot how incredibly cold it is in cedar falls. on campus. when the wind blows.
and unlike the past couple of years, no two of my classes are in the same building back to back. in the process of walking from one to the other today, i lost my face and my legs. pretty great.
hoping these last first days are memorable as a well known routine is established once more.
p.s. the events listed above are not subject to a one time occurence and actually happen quite frequently throughout the semester.

Haha! Wow. Ya know, those things sound easy and funny, but when you couple it with your workload, it really makes up for the lack of hard core study material enacted on the first day. I'm glad you have room to party like that. Education majors deserve it.
HAHA! o my. i laughed so hard. because everything is SO very true! the funniest things always happen to you, so i would ask that you keep that up to provide the rest of us with some good entertainment.
(i hope your hair is higher than the fu today.)
