I feel like I haven't done anything creative in quite some time. For those of you who don't know, I've had the privilege of teaching a 6th grade writing class once a week for the past two months. We're doing a 12 day poetry unit. I always encourage them to do everything in their power to make their writing unique from everyone else's. I always try in incorporate unconventional things into my lessons so that my students will have every opportunity to be exposed to the creative works of others. I teach all of these ways to be creative and yet I feel like my own creativity has been stifled. I'm just not nearly as motivated to do creative projects for myself as I was in high school. Back then I was unstoppable. Have I lost my muse? Have I grown up? Is this what happens when you get older? If it is, I want no part of it.

Andy and I watched the movie, "Sex Drive", the other night. It was seriously hilarious! I highly recommend it to fans of stupid-humor like "Dude Where's My Car?" and "Harold and Kumar Go to White Castle". I was tickled for days.

We had a massive amount of snow the other day. I was happy for the missed school day. However, what was once an abundance of glorious, shimmering white, is now a muddled, icey mix of sand and ick. It was quite nice while it lasted, but I really do not appreciate the aftermath.

Andy and I are leaving for Florida in a little under two weeks. Since it's my senior year of college and I've never gone away for spring break, I figured that it's pretty much now or never. We're going down with Natalie, my bff from 1st grade, and her boyfriend, Allen. It should prove to be a very exciting trip. I'm greatly looking forward to the break from both school and work.

Well, enough of this! I have a significant amount of work to accomplish before class tonight.
