Easter

Okay, I obvioulsy have broken my "I will try to post everyday rule" but things have been really busy around here of late. Tim and I have been planning our Easter extravaganza and we have been getting the house ready for guests. Not only that, but the semester has been winding down a bit and work kind of just stats to pile up. Add a trip to Mexico into the equation, and stress just goes through the roof!!!

Okay topic... " I like to____ for many reassons." I like to meet new people for many reasons. I am a social butterfly. I believe that the more people you know, the merrier. I like to meet new people because I don't think that anyone can ever have too many friends. It is also nice to meet new people so that you can gain new perspectives and learn new things. I find that the more I learn from others, the better off I am. I like hearing different viewpoints, and I consider myself never set in my ways.

Yeah okay, not such an exciting post, but, I am going down the list.

I will be gone for a little while because I am heading to Mexcio on Monday for a school trip. I am excited to see another country and experience a new culture. It will be hard to leave Tim and the kids but eight days is not so bad. I am sure that Tim will be able to take care of things while I am gone, however I know that it will try his patience a little, but he needs it. I will post pictures.

Have you ever wodered about....

Have you ever wondered what the purpose of day light savings is? I have a really tough time adjusting to time changes. I don't really understand why we even need them. It is nice to have that extra hour of sunlight in the evening but I sure do suffer for it the next morning. I have never been much of a morning person. I am more of a night owl. It seems that I don't fully wake up till the evenings anyway. Its kind of always been that way for me. So, to take an hour of sleep away from me is highly unfair.
I kind of liked the six months on, six months off thing. I also make it a habbit to remember that when it is general conference weekend, you set your clocks foward one hour. I guess I don't need to remember that anymore. Tim and I gave talks in sacrament this morning and if Dad hadn't called to remind us about the time change, then I don't think we would have made it. Luckily for us, a lot of other people forgot about the time change and we only had a chapel that was about half full. It made the stress of standing in front of a lot of people and speaking for 15 minutes a lot easier.

A new experiment

Today, I was in my Language Arts methods class when my professor gave me a fantastic idea. She started to explain how important it is to have your students keep journals. She also stressed how imparitive it was for teachers to be role models and have one as well. I inquired if on-line blogging would count as journal and she said absolutly, so I am hoping to start up my on-line blogging again! I think that this will be a lot of fun to start and hopefuly very beneficial to my future students. It may even encourage them to start an on line blog as well.
My professor also gave us a list of topics that we could use for our students when they run out of ideas. It is a huge list front and back so my goal is to use those topics and post once daily on a specific theme. I hope to incoporate photos, attachments, music, art, poetry, lesson plans or whatever else comes to mind. I think that this will be exciting and hopefuly it will give people a chance to understand me on a much deeper level. Anyway, have fun reading. Don't feel like you need to post a comment or anything unless you really want to.
