Tomorrow I am going to be a teacher, or at least I am going to put on my teacher hat and try to dance the jig. On absolutely no authority other than that I made it through undergrad, I am going to waltz into Burton hall room 229 and the Armory room who knows what and pretend that I have something to offer these people who are paying good money to sit in Burton hall room 229 and the Armory room who knows what. Two classes, 30 or more students, and me. I know that people who actually do know what they are doing chose me to do this job. They even decided to give me money. I just have to suck it up and know that even though I don't have three degrees that say so, I do know how to write. Let's just hope that they don't see through my act tomorrow.
While I deeply wish that I could be starting class at OBU on Wednesday, I know in my head that it is good to move on. Also, I'm really glad that although it isn't at OBU, I get to go to class this week! Such a nerdy sentiment, I know. It's just that I've never felt more myself than sitting in a classroom. I just wish I could be doing it with all of my best friends.

miss ashley, i bet if i would have had a teacher like you during my 4 years at OU i would have loved the class! what are you teaching by the way? Good luck this week, youre going to do so well!
You are going to be/already are a magnificent teacher, ashley may. The students will see your genuine love for education and for what you're teaching. THAT will make them love you. I'm proud of you for doing such a scary thing... standing up in front of people only 3-4 years younger... that's hard. You are wonderful and I hope you love, love, love your classes. I love you.
hi, honey. i'm sure you performed wonderfully today! love and miss you.
Just remember...they probably think you're really old even though you're not. At least that's a plus. I LOVE YOU PROFESSOR WALKER!!!!
