Sadly, I have no money. And no jobs further. Well, I sort of had a job and I’m going to get some money from it at some point, but I’ve been waiting since mid-October for my next check. It’s sad. And I should be all happy and celebrating because I just finished taking my comprehensive examination, a requirement for passing the Grad School Education program. And I think I passed. But alas, so quickly I let go of the glory?

No! By gone! As I write this I remember the words of my mother, spoken early this morning, and she said to cultivate gratitude in every step of your life. For it can drastically change a life, make a child realize they like school, make a sick person better. Yes indeed. I am thankful for cats, my dog, my boyfriend, thankful for food (and credit cards to pay for it, hellish as they/that may be) and I’m very happy for my friends getting engaged.

I guess life isn’t so bad after all. The snow will be a nice change if it does happen. Maybe I can join a snow shoveling crew…dun dun dun dun (noise of dread and bad tasteless humor)

(by the way, if you’re bored like i am, go to here and read this cute picture book: “The Other Side” by Istvan Banyai on Michael Salamon’s blog)

i have a study guide and i’m going over stuff, but i should have been doing this for months. i just don’t know. i have to pass this test. so i’m procrastinating to write about it. of course. i didn’t really study for the French exam, but that was different. this is a lot of theory and hoo-hah that i just don’t remember. some of it applies to me so i remember that, but the other stuff does not interest me. oh well, i guess it’s good to have it all somewhere.

so i’m putting it on another blog site i have to hopefully become rich and famous from someday. i’m not rich right now. but last night i did eat a nice rich crab-filled salmon. it was delicious. and it was with some girl friends and then it turned into a big party.

also, my best friend is engaged. and a good friend and cousin of mine as well. so many engagements like boom boom woh! it’s very exciting, but also reminds me a need to really think about that whole thing, relationships, whether i want or don’t want what from who ha!

other stuff. mostly happiness about being done. so happy.

Had enough of that I guess. I am still a lil’ o.o.c. spectacular. Or so I like to think.

I found out about two relevant engagements within an hour of each other- and then I talked to a friend from high school who told me about a third, that I, nor anyone I know of had known about. yes I can keep secrets and I intend to on that one until I hear of it from someone else. But woh! Throw some whats on the whos?

I guess I wish I was sleeping right now. I. also gotta go b-b-q. Meaning the VCR is not only not set up, but where is it? It may have disappeared in the move. And good ol’ technology teacher says ‘bring a VHS for taping yourself because those are the most universal means’ or something like that.

You know, it’s all dollars to donuts up in this D. Dollars to donuts? Yes. A girl in my class actually used that. I was so caught off guard that I fail to remember the context, thusly having no idea how to properly use it myself, but make way for dollops to dancers or something way worse than that.

Who wants to go to AC?! I mean the shore. For sure. For short. A short period of time.

My wireless is suck right now. I guess I should just go to bed. But I got a text message from my new roommate that said ‘sick in bed. talk tomorrow’ to I guess explain why she didn’t move in today. It will in fact be great and or very interesting times to have more roommates.

And my bestest friend is coming on Tuesday which shall be sweet.

Finally, I watched a movie. I can’t say the title of it until I write about it. But boy was it good. And yes, I am this vague in real life too, always, to everyone, about everything.

And that is why I can’t write good lesson plans. Or what not. It tastes good though, life.

alive! i made it! i got a great grade on my test (B+) which is really an A, basically. But not at all. Hey. It’s cool though. It’s making me use capitals, which I think are kind of a waste of time. but i was soooo excited. and i did alright in my ‘microteach’, but only because i talked about TV. TV is a good topic, especially when it’s supposed to be for middle-school-aged students.

i think everything is in fact going to work out. besides work next week (i need off because my best friend is coming to town!), and! i have not ‘worked out’ in forever. at least i’d like to ride my bike more but i’m scared because i never asked if i could store it in the garage i’m storing it in and then they shut it so i’m scared. i guess i could carry it up the stairs each time? no. not really.

i’m tirered moreso than usual, even though i went to bed by like 1am AWESOME! i’m so F proud of myself for doing better and putting in a real effort towards school this time. it’s kind of gross how much better i feel, it’s like i’m actually doing work and caring because i realize how important it is for me? after this class, a test or two in the fall, and then student teaching!

in other news, i will not discuss my l’oventures on the internet. it’s against God’s will. well. my will. and probably anyone involved on the other end. let’s just say i don’t get around, but i don’t cover a lot of ground with it either. i don’t have time for this.

i’m working. lots. today. and it’s okay, cuz it’s all gonna change. i think it’ll be great. and i love you. so much. like pb ‘n j. (actually i don’t like that all that much)

tired! i had some fun this weekend. i went to the june fete and went on a few rides. i used my new camera. all the way until the battery died.

good times.

wish me luck. please. i have to go nap so i can wake up and study more.

my life is definitely way more interesting then what i just wrote sounds, but i can’t convey that right now, seeing as how i must be studying every second i’m alive.

bye!
