Eye of the Tiger
9 Jul
Totally in need of a sweet pump up song right now. I am running on 4.5 hours of sleep and haven’t stopped since 5am this morning. Woke up, speed dressed, speed ate, speed reviewed my lesson plan on the bus ride to the school, speed fixed up our classroom and student binders, TAUGHT A CLASS, sat through workshops until 4pm, speed graded student exit exams on the bus ride home, speed ate dinner, lesson planning for tomorrow since then.
This is my only break. Must return to finish preparing tomorrow’s lesson. Maybe I can get more sleep tonight but I doubt it.
This is my pump up jam for when I am out for a run and feeling tired. Once this song starts playing, I crank it up a few notches. Hopefully I can get just as motivated while lesson planning.
Eye of the Tiger by Survivor. PS – Probably the worst video ever
And if you are not able to watch the video, listen here:

Oh how was teaching my first class ever? Well, it didn’t go nearly the way I had imagined it but I really like the kids in my class. I just have to figure out a way to convince them that not only math is awesome, but taking a summer math class is awesome too. Any suggestions welcome
