हेल्लो नो ओने

I have no idea what happened to my title, it just went into another language. BIZARRE!

Updates:
1) 3rd semester of teaching is over, still not 100% satisfied with this career choice but I'm stuck for now. Maybe in a few years...law school? sociology? Who knows?
2) I gave up coffee and most everything caffiene.
3) Yesterday it was 74 degrees, today it's about 39 and rainy. Yet another reason why I'm not a fan of Texas.


And that's all I got. I decided to update even though no one reads this and it's really only here to serve as a backup to my own memory.


We are going to southern Illinois tomorrow afternoon/night; driving ten hours in a rented mini van with 5 adults and one two and a half year old. Huspaz!

See you in another month or two.

English class has nothing to do with writing

"Are we going to learn anything about how to improve our writing skills, if not this class is pointless."
And this is what I get from a student today as we are doing our grammar lesson. What did our grammar lesson consist of you ask? Types of sentences, natural and inverted sentence structure and fragments....but of course knowing how to do these things won't help you with your writing.

Ugh.

My nephew

Is WAY cuter than yours...He even has a sweet grill, how many 2 year olds can say that they rival the styles of popular rap artists like Lil Wayne? Not that any 2 year old would want to, but still he's got style or swagga as my 7th graders would say.

Retard

Jeff just called another girl delicious...not pretty or yeah she's cute, but delicious. Honestly, who does that?


School is going well, but I don't want to be a teacher anymore. It bores me and I find myself wanting to go back to school more and more everyday. Pretty sure I'm applying in January and starting in the spring/summer of next year. More education + better job= happier Amanda.


The End.


"Back in Itasca I used to pick my nose and put the boogers on the wall, so whoever bought that house had to clean a whole wall full of boogers." said by my wonderful brother, Andrew.

BAAAH I'm back

I'm married.
I own a house.
I own a dog.
I like crafts.
I love shoes.



The end.

Check that link out it is AMAZING!!!!

It's been a while

I've been freakishly busy with work, wedding plans, discipline issues with students, my injured ego, and ooooooooooh yeah buying a house...that I haven't had time to update in FOREVER!

Almost all the wedding plans are set in stone, with a few minor details still unpolished, so that makes me feel a lot better. I know that it's only a matter of time where I'm bombarded with more details and decisions to make, but that's not for another month or two.

Work, well....work kind of sucks at the moment. I thought I was doing well and keeping on top of things but with three classes to plan for and teach....I'm starting to wear myself out. I feel tired and broken after everyday; I think that I need to start reevaluated what I can and cannot do. I hate thinking that I can't do something, but I'm not sure what to do about it. I need therapy ... haha

All that above is my injured ego....I don't think of myself as the person I wanted to be at this point in my life. I don't feel good about the things I say or do half the time, but sometimes they get me to where I need to be....ugh I feel like Huck Finn.

AAAAAAAAAAAND Jeff and I bought a house in Princeton. I'll post pictures when we get things pretty or maybe if we just get some furniture.


That's it for now...

Hahahahaha

Here is a photo of people in the Northeast during the crazy winter storm that happened over the weekend.


Now here is the description of the photo: Owen Burke, left, and Ephrata Wood, hold on to a tarp to drape around a stage they are installing during a windy snow storm outside the U.S. Capitol in Washington, on Monday, March 2, 2009. The men were installing the stage for a global warming rally of college students happening later in the day.(AP Photo/Jacquelyn Martin)
