IT"S OVER!!!!! ;)

I am officially no longer a student!! I took my last test ever today!!! It felt so nice!! Now I take on the role as a teacher... which is kind of a little scary. But, better than having to study all night for test and such! Now it's on to writing lesson plans like crazy!!! 

Welcome to the Real World...

or at least the real world minus the paycheck and plus grades. Today did not go as I hoped it would. I honestly did not know what to expect about the end of the semester, but this may be what I kind of expected. Although I ultimately knew I would not have a care- free, home work free rest of the semester, I sure hoped the seminar today would prove me wrong. For the rest of the semester I have to turn in a lesson plan for everyday. Two reflections for each lesson, one on how the lesson went and things i need to change and one on the student's reaction to the lesson. and a couple other things for each lesson. In the next four weeks, I will have filled up 4 5in binders of lesson plans and other things. In a way, it's not that much... like the lesson plans will not be that bad... it's just all of the other stuff on top of getting no sleep. 

tonight i am thinking about a chicken pizza and salad as i watch food network's halloween special. i have decided i have eaten pearl street's chicken pizza enough, i can make it myself. 

GEAUX TIGERS... beat those dawgs (from ga).

This semester is downhill from here...

At least I hope so anyways. Really, I will find out Friday.

I have one more math class, one more science class, one more language arts class and then two days of finals. WHOO HOO!!

After that I will be in West Point everyday. There are pro's and con's to this. The big pro (or at least I hope, for my sanity) that I will finished with busy work. I will just have lesson plans, teaching and reflections on those two things. The big con is having to wake up by 5 am every morning. Friday we have a seminar on the things to come.. so... we will see then what the future holds.

speaking of west point.. i have to be there bright and early in the morning so it's way way past bedtime!

This weekend is state's homecoming - hopefully they win. they are playing MTSU. 

LSU plays georgia this weekend in death valley! GEAUX TIGERS  : )

New Background : )

i finally figured out how to change my background on this thing! 

today i am busy cleaning and doing homework. (which is why i had time to figure the background thing out... when i clean and do homework, i have to procrastinate a lot)

well tonight LSU plays south carolina... i sure hope they go out there and play football this week. they definitely do not have a big head after last weeks embarrassment. 

GEAUX TIGERS : )

6 Things About Me...

I was tagged by Claire .

1. I dislike chocolate, a lot! I do not like the taste of it, or the texture, or the color. And, it makes me sick. I will eat it occasionally, but if I have a choice 99.9% of the time I will never choose a chocolate dessert. 

2. I have a really hard time cheering for any other team in the SEC other than LSU. Except... I have learned to like MSU. I never will pull for them over LSU, but I will any other SEC team. For me to cheer for an SEC team, they will have to be playing another team that I hate (like USC, OU, OSU). I think it's because I have something against most of the teams in the SEC, so even if I need to pull for them, I just cannot bring myself to doing so. If Ole Miss plays one of my out of conference hate teams, it will be a very hard choice in choosing  who to pull for. That is how much I dislike Ole Miss. 

3. I never really watched too much TV in high school. Now I am obsessed. I will watch any teenage soap opera and become addicted after one episode. It's ridiculous. 

4. This may be a little too much info, but oh well I am running out of things to say. I absolutely, positively cannot stand the sound of someone peeing. Which is why I absolutely cannot go in public bathrooms. I cannot even listen to myself pee, I have to cut water on to block out the sound. 

5. I have watched the food network so much that I can tell you the little annoying things each person does. For instance, Alton Brown smacks, and he smacks a lot and loud. 

6. I saved the best for last. I am going through the process of applying for culinary school in three years. I am actually not going to do culinary school, but baking and pastry school. If all goes as planned, I will move to Houston after I finish my teaching pay back for my scholarship and get a teaching job in Houston and go to night classes for pastry school. I want to do this for myself. Maybe decorate cakes and such on the weekend. Eventually, like after I retire from teaching later on in my life, I would like to open up a kid foods restaurant. But who knows. Mom says I change these plans daily.

Well that's all.. I tag Robin . Have fun : )

LSU :(

this is sad.. lsu just lost by 30 points. i wish it would have been the other way, but not all games go your way. at least florida is ranked, so we were not beat by 30 by an unranked team. i am curious to see how far lsu drops after this game. the whole team is to blame for this fiasco. the all stank it up. our quarterback is just a freshman,so hopefully after he gets a good fill for the sec, he will be awesome.

in other news, state beat vandy today! that's exciting. 

oh well, GEAUX TIGERS.. i still love them :)

Expensive Weekend

I spent way toooooo much money this weekend, and it's early Saturday... Yesterday I went to Jackson to see some friends from Carey. I made it to Jackson before they did so I decided to stop in Old Navy. So there was my first mistake... They had a pretty good sale and I bought too much. Then I ran in Bed, Bath and Beyond and found mom a birthday present. Then we went and ate at Kiefer's. It was so so so so so so so good! I love it!!! After dinner we went to the fair... that's when the spending got a little out of hand. We all decided we were going to ride rides and 25 dollars later on tickets, I was wishing I would have passed. Then of course we had to eat some fair food. I settled on a funnel cake with caramel and a lemonade! :)

Mental Holiday was a Success!!

Taking four days off was wonderful! I feel so refreshed from the craziness of last week. So refreshed, in fact, I am having trouble getting back to reality. I needed to do a few things over the break to stay on schedule and needless to day, I did nothing. And, I am still doing nothing. Those four days flew by so fast.... 

Saturday I spent ALL day in Baton Rouge, shopping! It was nice! Mom bought me A LOT of stuff! She kept reminding me that we were not in BR to shop for me, but I would have hated to see what all I would have been bought if it was about me!!! But really, I got some much needed clothes to wear to initiations and what not. Sunday I got to hang out with Merisha and Andrew and Zoey (the cat). It was fun to hang out with my friends again! Monday, Robin and I planned our favorite outing.. PEARL STREET! and Claire crashed our party (but we didn't mind!!) I have been craving their chicken pizza for the last seven weeks. It was SOOO good!! Since Claire crashed our party, I got to see Knox! He is getting so big! He can say Mississippi River! I am still impressed! Then Tuesday I had to drive back to the real world... NOT FUN! 

The only good thing about being back is this is a short week! Today we had to put on a reading fair at the school I am at. It was fun. We have been working a lot since school started to get ready for this and I am glad it's over. 

This weekend LSU plays Florida in the swamp! I have high hopes for my tigers (as I usually do)! Each year this is the one game I hate watching. Reason #1 - No matter what Florida is ranked, they always put up a fight, which means I have 30 heart attacks during the game. Reason #2 - I HATE HATE HATE the chomp. It unnerves me. Reason #3- I like Tim Tebow. He's a good guy... I hate that we made him cry last season, but I like beating him, since he's one of the best! 

Well I need to go read my book that I have not started and am having a test on tomorrow... 

Geaux Tigers! Beat those Gators! 

terrible week = great weekend and fall break!

It's almost Friday. I made comments at the end of each week prior to this one, that these weeks are flying by. I wish I could say the same about this one. I feel like Monday was forever ago. I kept thinking today that the week was over, then I remember I still have a whole day left. I have two presentation tomorrow. One of them is a dramatic presentation. Since I have not a drop of dramatic ability, this should be interesting. 

Tomorrow about 12:30 I will headed to Natchez. It's the first time I have been home in seven weeks. Fall break is Monday and Tuesday so I am going on a mental holiday for the next four days. Well, as close to a mental holiday as I can get. Of course, I still have a lot of stuff to do, but it will not be bad. 

LSU is off this weekend... but I am still going to Baton Rouge! I have missed it dearly! I need some new LSU shirts and items!
