As of today I have passed all three mass state teaching tests =) I can officially do student teaching now and become a teacher =)

Yeah i'm pretty much the most excited person alive right now...

Friday I find out if I have passed my MTEL's... the Massachusetts Test for Education Licensure. I have never been more nervous in my whole life. Basically my whole future hangs in the balance at this very moment. If I pass, I do student teaching next semester, I become an elementary school teacher and then I go on to get my masters in special ( Read more... )

Is there really such thing as a "good guy"? Men in their 20's seem to only want 2 things: sex and alcohol.
They prove time and time again that you just can't trust them. For instance: I was dating a guy named Steve. He seemed to have everything all together, he seemed to be a good decent guy. He had his flaws and I wasn't blind to them but his humor ( Read more... )

Wow I can't believe another year has gone by. It went by so fast. This was a great year. 
Here is some of the big things that have happened this year:

*I can drink legally
*I lived on my own in another country
*I met a lot of new friends

i've grown up:
*i'm not a shy, sheltered little girl anymore
*i'm much more assertive and confident

I seem to have a problem:

I am a magnetic force attracting men who are jerks. They seem like a nice guy; showering me with affection, treating me like a princess, even telling me he loves me. Then, SWOOSH... the rug is pulled out from under me and he disappears into thin air, no explanation, no phone call.

Now i'm just let with: "why?" Do I have the ( Read more... )

I am surprised my mom has lived this long without having a heart attack. An awful thing to say I know but she is so tense and so stressed all the time, borrowing from Ferris Beuler: she is so tight, if you stuck a lump of coal inside her, you'd get a diamond.

She tells me I need to find a job at school. I say ok no problem, I want to get one anyways ( Read more... )

I haven't blogged in a very long while. England is absolutely, positively the best experience of my life thus far. The culture, the places, the things to see: its all absolutely amazing.

I love that I can wake up, go right outside my apartment complex and catch a bus which will bring me to a tube where i can go anywhere.

I even love all the cars: ( Read more... )

London is incredible!! I've only been here 2 full days (its 10PM here, 5 pm Mass time) and I have already learned so much. Such as:

*look both ways twice because pedestrians don't have the right of way and you will get hit if you don't watch!
*the end of a line on the underground is called a cockfauster (makes me laugh every time!)
* hard cider has 8 ( Read more... )

I'm going to England today! The plane leaves at 7 pm and I get there at 6 am tomorrow morning = )

I don't think i've ever been more scared, anxious but overall excited
