I am alive!
Travis noted that no one posts on here anymore. True dat. Hi Trav. I miss you too.
Right now I'm working in the box office of Colby's theater. I'm doing the job that a sign could do- telling people that the tickets for this weekend's show are going to be given away at the door.
The sad part?
There's a sign that says that, too. Teehee. This job is easy. I'm listening to bad satellite radio (aka a lot of Radio Disney) and wondering why my workload is sooooo light this week. And I'm happy that "Sexyback" just came on.
Life is v.v. good. Wes is so nice and I don't know why he's dating me. I have a stomachache from the beef stew I had at dinner. The biscuits were yummy.
Thanksgiving Break was v.v. good. Perfect balance of friend-time v. family-time except the complete lack of Sal-time. I got to watch some Melee, go in Ry's hot tub, and play a lot of super-competetive games of Pictionary. Not much has changed :) But missed Carla...Carla? Are you there? We think you're dead and we're all VERY sad about it.
I can't believe it's almost December.
Today I taught my 4th graders how to make thermometers with green water. It's kind of ridiculous that I'm doing a whole science unit with 4th graders for my campus job.
For anyone who hasn't heard the best 4th grade story of this year:
The Teacher: Ok, does anyone know what a molecule is?
Unruly Student: If I had to guess, I'd say a potion that makes you go wacky!
Teacher: (explains what a molecule is)
Unruly Student: Oh yeah. Yeah. I've seen that in a movie once.
HAHAHA. I had to walk away because I was about to laugh SO HARD. That's awesome. The class is SO MUCH BETTER than it was last year. All the kids seem so much younger. And so far no one's gotten gum in their hair that I've had to get out with peanut butter.
What's a good easy Christmas- excuse me, Holiday-treat that I can bring in for the kids that can't be smashed on the wall like the glass ornaments I so lovingly personalized for each kid last year? Hmmm... I would do cookies or something, but that's expensive (since you have to buy whole bottles of things you never think of buying, like vanilla extract and stuff) and they're into this new HEALTHY FOOD THING at school. Which actually makes for some very delicious class parties. And the transormation of one student into a cheese-iac.
Cheese IS really good.
My creative writing teacher thinks that my writing is really good. That's awesome. I feel like my identity crisis is beginning to resolve itself.
This is such a mash of thoughts. I doubt that ANYONE is reading this. Oh well.
This weekend we're running a dance for world Aids day called "Dance your Pants On". I like the image that it evokes. It was going to be "Dance your Pants Off" but some people thought that ....hmmm it's world aids day. Maybe not.
I felt sorta bummed the other night because John went all the way to England to see a friend but for some reason we can't get in touch and we live in the same town, ten minutes away. Plus I'm listening to an A Capella version of "Zoot Suit Riot" and remembering high school semis.
Wes and I watched "Spirited Away" the other night. It was SO GOOD. See it.
Peas out.
