go gigi! knock their socks off!!!!
i can offer some advice for the teaching event.... BE YOURSELF! take some deep breaths before you start. your heart may may be pounding and you may panic and think 'what-the-heck-did-i-get-myself-into?' but i can GUARANTEE you that as soon as you start talking the feeling will pass and your bubbly self will shine through. you are so friendly and you are passionate about what you do ~ and the students pick up on that.
i still get nervous when i have to do those classes of 50 people at ckc, but it is SO MUCH FUN to do!
good luck to you. i KNOW you will be awesome!
big supportive hugs, patty :-)
