Passion to Create


What a fun and frustrating week this past one was for me. I have been trying to come up with a brilliant ... wow them... project for my Advanced group to do this coming saturday. It all revolves around Paint... and how deeply committed I am to staying one step ahead of them!

Pride.
how funny that painting can simplify my greatest weakness.

I am trying to reduce the amount of things on my plate, and yet I fell into the trap of pridefully pursuing the painting perfection... that will pertain to their preferance for my teaching performance.

what a predicament.

oooh.. randy will love that.

anyway
i am now Painfully aware that i am going to have to present a more realistic and still good teaching, that will also reveal that I have tried all I have seen done with paint, and they can now just try it too. Which is just going to be fine.

I am glad to have the realization that I am not ever going to be a perfect proffessor, and that it is really ok that I am just me.
