I started doing homework for the first time in more than a decade this morning. It felt weird. I pretty much did the minimum required because based on the initial class, it appeared that we would be revisiting everything in group discussions. I was right – we did. Still, the teacher told us that we will soon have a test on the information we covered in class and on the material we read for homework. In the interest of getting a good grade, perhaps I should re-read the articles and actually dig into the classroom requirements/standards for health. Those standards are several pages long. The test will be sometime next week.
In the afternoon today, I walked to my wife’s classroom so we could then drive together to Mission College. For some reason, I thought that her school was only half a mile away. It is 0.8 of a mile. A subtle difference I know, but I had only given myself 10 minutes to get there (I walk a 21 minute mile typically). I had to walk pretty fast just to get there only a little late. My legs didn’t work anymore by the time I got there.
We drove to Mission with another teacher, and we took a brief tour of the place. While there, I also talked to my professor again and filled-out paperwork so I could get paid for my lecture. The new buildings on campus are stunning, especially the Hospitality Management wing. Their large teaching kitchen had me drooling. I want to take a class there! When I got home and told my son about the room, he said the same thing. Heck, he’s willing to take a class now, even before getting out of High School!
