rather than getting into complex educational topics, i choose to post my nail color of the moment.

i painted them pink, purple, and dark blue so it faded into the darker colors and topped it off with gold shatter. kinda cool.

i am going to change the color tomorrow night, i hate chipped polish, and i have to keep my nails painted to keep me from biting which is the worst nervous habit ever.

plus, i kinda like having something colorful to look at while i daydream.



i am so on the fence about teaching. i love it one minute, and the next my mind goes immediately to grad school. columbia has an amazing OT program, but then i have two more years where i can't work, so i will keep it in mind and maybe switch my focus to behavioral management or something of the sort since i don't think administration would be my thing. resource teachers have a ton of flexibility as far as curriculum and they really help students a lot and get them to grade level performance, and they decide what they do... this is the best part of teaching because you can really get to know each student and help them as much as they need.

who knows... it will be an exciting year for sure.

i have an issue with wanting to make every teacher's room more beautiful and functional though.... hmmmmm. should i offer to help????

these are what you put on when:

1. you experience the coldest classroom ever and literally shiver for 8 hrs. this is my student teaching placement. have no fear, i will go tomorrow prepared to the max. i refuse to be cold in arizona as this makes zero sense.

2. you receive soul-crushing news and you hope that in the end love conquers all...

i really was having a great day minus being cold.

Kids say so much funny stuff...


Watching this 11 year old boy right now, his lil sis is already in bed.


He reminds me so much of (e:Paul) sometimes... He loves the computer and he's such a geek... But clever and witty.


Anyway, he's playing this game, minecraft, and apparently there are these 'creeper' things and he made his voice real low and yells out:


'yo creeper, wazzup man?!'



Sounds like something I would say...



Kids are the best.

i need new music.... i have a very long commute for the next year and i want to fill my ipod with fun, upbeat, happy, music...

i like, pop, r&b, dance, ya know.

any good suggestions... put em here!

Everytime I question something, I ask myself: "what would honeybadger do?"


Wwhbd?



Then it all becomes clear as day.



P.s. It's about 80 degrees here today...
