So I said to myself, "Self?" I said, "Next snow day you're going to make a vid." That was before di_br made her mindblowing MirrorMask vid and ana_br did the unthinkable and made a One Tree Hill vid that I loved (having never seen the show)! After spending two hours clipping THE FIRST EPISODE of Heroes, I've decided that since I only marginally liked the ( Read more... )

Wow, I've been back for awhile, but I just didn't feel like posting, I guess. NYC was unbelievable. xash13x should kick me in the head for not enjoying it more and being downright rude to her for much of the trip. Our students were amazing- taking in the culture and excitement of the city. Our other chaperones were hellish- petty, bitter, ( Read more... )

People of New York City: Lock up your children!

Tomorrow, xash13x and I are going to NYC for the weekend. With 40 students. Our role is that of chaparones, which basically means we get a free, all expenses paid trip. The group of students we're taking is nearly a perfect group to travel with, as they are nice blend of theatre kids, goth kids, and the ( Read more... )

Thanks to everyone for the well-wishes. I did indeed surpass the score needed on the MAT yesterday.

( Test day fun! )

Today, I MOWED THE LAWN again. As in "greenery growing from the ground". Sheesh. Tomorrow, I'm taking the MAT (Miller Analogies Test) for grad school. Apparently, it doesn't matter that I already have a master's degree and took the GRE (a MUCH more difficult test). I took the online sample test administered by the testing body and scored 40% ( Read more... )

After a fun weekend with xash13x and her man, I set about finding stolen vids and clips, of which there were many. vid_our_ground is going to prove to be a huge asset in protecting our ideas and hard work.

I had my last class of the semester yesterday, and since I was in his town, I had an overwhelming urge to see bigbenalpha, so I did just that. Classwise, I have a 95 going ( Read more... )

The icon says it all. I'm taking a mental health day today, also known as a PLU to the school system. Every damned Spring, I do this. I get extremely irritable and hateful. I've felt this coming for a few weeks now, but it has to stop. I'm hoping the long weekend will "cure" me.

On a lighter note: I haven't watched CSI in a long time, but ( Read more... )

Oh, that's the sound of CRUNCH TIME! I have an assignment due by noon, and as always, I haven't started it. Actually, I have started it, I just haven't started writing it. Lucky for me, we have another snowday!

We had a snowday Monday and I had to attend the state ACT conference yesterday in Charleston (a big thank you to the ever wonderful indiecowboy ( Read more... )

In the past two days I have decided on a house (one called Lake House because it overlooks a lake), been accepted to Marshall University's School Counseling program to get my second master's, driven to Greensboro and back* after finding my tax documents from 2002 (with only minor scrapes and bruises), and am fully ready to get my loan ( Read more... )

As it turns out, I got the job I bid on. I'll now be counseling at my old high school. How very Buffy of me, eh ( Read more... )
