The West Wing 30 Day Challenge (Day 3)
Day 3: Favorite Episode
This one is hard for me because I can easily find something I love in each episode (at least for the first few seasons). I have to say my favorite is Galileo. I love President Bartlett’s nerdiness and gets to show off in this episode. I’m also a huge fan of space facts and travel… hence my theme for tumblr :)
Here is a previous post I made about...

The West Wing 30 Day Challenge (Day 2)
Day 2- My least favorite character is easily Mandy. Every time she appears in an episode (thank goodness she wasn’t in many!) I would swear and say “shut up, Mandy!” Thank you Kayla for agreeing with me! I wasn’t too found of the VP Hoynes but I think I respect him more than Mandy.

Saturday was the worst day for me in a while. I quit my job at Build-a-bear and literally cried the entire day. I knew I was going to quit that day but I didn’t plan on it going that badly.
Flash to today: a frantic parent comes in to Sylvan and asks me if I could help her children who are struggling in Geometry. Long story short- I told her I could tutor them from their home for less...

The West Wing 30 Day Challenge
Day 1: My favorite character???
I love all of the characters but my favorite is CJ. I grew to love her even more as the show progressed. She is strong, tall and confident and willing to jump off a cliff for the president. She loves gold fish and can do the Jackal. She is my role model.

30 day challenges, here I come!
1st- I’m going to do West Wing
Starting with the 1st of March, I’m going to start the Hunger Games one. (I need some time to absorb what I just read)
Lastly, I’m going to do Doctor Who. I think this one will be the most difficult for me because I love everything about this show! (Not saying I don’t love everything about West Wing…...

Day One: Favorite Character
Haymitch Abernathy
I love Haymitch. There, I said it. Most people pick Katniss, Prim, Rue, Gale, or Peeta. But not I. I love how honest he is and how he never bullshits you. Add that with the fact that Katniss is the only person who truly…

The thing I say most to my students... and I...
“NO!!! I am going to strangle you<if you keep getting it wrong>!”
Sometimes I leave off the last bit.
Now I remember why I prefer the company of cats.
Cats don’t have drama!
I have recently learned that having friends inevitably leads to drama. I hate it. I just don’t want friends anymore if they end up getting pissed at me or talking to me rudely.
Yes I am sensitive and emotional, but when you apologize for “hurting my feelings” make it an actual apology. Not one that blames your actions on me being passive aggressive....

Which also equals a miserable me. So instead of going to the doctor’s I’m going to drink a ton of water and hope for the best. Fingers crossed!

I'm Educating the youth...
Student: Did I get here early?
Me: Yes
Student: Am I still early?
Me: No
Student: Did I start on time?
Me: Yes.
Student: I started at 4:30?
Me: Yes
Student: Okay, so maybe I leave early... at 4:00?
Me: No, you can't go back in time. We don't have a TARDIS.
Student: Oh, I wish we did.
Me: Me too.

Blood work! Woohoo
Doctor: *Shakes my hand* How are you?
Me: *Sit down in the high chair* Okay.
Doctor: *Prepares everything* So, are you allergic to anything?
Me: No
Doctor: Needles?
Me: Would it make a difference if I said yes?
Doctor: No. It won't be too bad.
Me: Yeah, I know. *He sticks me and I wince*
Doctor: See, that didn't hurt. I didn't feel a thing.
Me: ha ha ha

My birthday!
I saw a bunch of my friends and almost all of them commented on my gross-looking biopsy… on my chest.
The day was a success because I did the following:
1. Worked out 1st thing in the morning!
2. Took down Jennifer in the hallway before our Technology class. By take down, I mean I gave her a hug, then pulled her to the ground. I tried to get up before she did and run away… but I was...

Tomorrow is my birthday!!!!
I told my moody student this and he said: “Oh?” then long pause: “How old will you be?”
I said 32. Then silence. Then I asked if he believed me.
Moody-pants: No. Hmmm, maybe? Sure.
Me: I’m really turning 22.
MP: That’s what I thought.
That was the highlight of my day.
Don't mess with me today, Raccoon.
Today, Papa Bear asked me several times if I was okay and gave me the instructions to just stand there and look pretty. He revised those instructions to be: Just stand there. That was my day. I couldn’t talk right and was having major processing issues. Thanks, migraine. Thanks, crappy blood sugar which no doubt caused my migraine.
The small blessing was that no one came into work during...
I've finally reached that age
where seeing a dad with his young child makes him incredibly sexy. I just saw a commercial with a father taking care of his sick son and all I could think was how hot the dad was. Jeeppers.

“Look at how pretty Belle is!” Yes, but you know what makes Belle great? She reads! Remember the awesome gift Beast gave her? The room with the books? What’s that called? Yes! A library! Do you have a library?
“I wish I had hair like Rapunzel.” But you’re fierce like her. This isn’t even her…
Hilarious!

My lovely Jared.
He called randomly last night and we discussed the holiday.
He said something about how he is always polite and I start laughing. And I can’t stop. I then told him that if he was trying to kill me with laughter he came very close. While I laughed until I couldn’t breath and tears were streaming down my face, he kept saying “Really? Really? It’s not that funny.” Yes...

Sometimes.
I feel awfully alone sometimes. Then I regret having these feelings because of course I’m not alone. I know I have the greatest friends for love me.
But, I still feel alone. I wish I didn’t. I wish I didn’t feel as if I need to keep my thoughts to myself.
I love my life, but sometimes I just can’t handle the loneliness.

Fatherly Advice From Brandon.
My older friend Brandon is known as “the father” of our little band of teachers-to-be. He likes to give me advice because he has been around the block a few times. At the football game last night, I decided to milk all the advice out of him just in case I didn’t see him next semester. This is what I got:
Wait until you are finished with school to have a relationship.

I’m loving being me! I am almost positive this feeling will only last for a short while. But hey, I’m going to rejoice and enjoy it!
