Paul Hamm vs Sponge Bob Squarepants
i was listenin to the radio the other day after Paul Hamm won the men's gymnastic all around when they were making fun of the way he talks. Honestly, i would have never thought that kinda voice would come out of him. not sure exactly what i was expecting but DEFINITELY not that! so they compared him to sponge bob squarepants. OMG its soo hard to tell the difference! so all you online blog readers out there, tryin to DL a clip of Paul Hamm talking and of Sponge Bob Squarepants and check it out for yourself! its DAYAM funny!

drunken bear
some funny shiet. . .i heard on the radio about a black grizzley bear that got drunk in the forrest. the DJs on the radio claimed to have read it on CNN (which i couldnt find). they said a bear had opened a can of busch, didnt like it, passing on to some local beer which it liked. downing THRITY SIX (36) cans later, the bear was passed out with beer cans sorrounding him! they apparently baited him with honey, donuts and beer! FUNNY!

Suddenly its weird. . .
my first full week is ALMOST over and i can definitely tell ya that it was a toughie!! i dunno but im starting to feel like teaching at hastings is weird. . .its like being back in high school again. . but not! so many people have decided to move on to new and different places. i thought i was gonna be on eof those people too but now, i realized that i didnt do what i thought. . .weird. . .

let the chaos games commence!
so being a teacher isnt as easy as it looks!
DUH!!

some things to ponder:

• losing kids
• dealing with skippers
• perverted kids (a boy fondles himself as girls grind up on them. . .evidence? the flag waves!)
• my class is too easy!
• following instructions
• BRING ME THE DAYAM CANDY, PAPER TOWELS AND KLEENEX!
• raise your hands
• wasting time
• not wasting ENOUGH time
• assigned seats. . .in NON-alphabetical order
• SHORT lunches SUCK!
• hall sweeps
• ENDLESS PAPERWORK!
• dayam "lesson plans"

the craziness continues. . .

a birthday gift for the pain sensitive teacher
after realizing that i hadnt thought enough about my original bday gift (i have to do more planning before i commit), i ended up gettin myself a powerbook and ipod. (im a sucker for a deal!) i think im gonna learn to be a Mac enthusiast. im kinda excited! its like an underground cult! OoOoOOOoo! check that stuff out!! =)

apple martinis birthday celebration in austin. . .
so this weekend was a blast for parts of it. . . lets say three apple martinis is two and a half too many!! when you come out of the person's home stumbling, you know its gonna be a crazy nite! the shirts were a hit. . everyone was reading the two shirts "i did Justin three times. . . i did Ashton more!" hehehe FUN!!

saturday nite kinda let me in a doozey! i dunno. . .it was weird. thats all i have to say. sometimes you have to restrain yourself from who you wanan hang out with. its something i have to learn how to do!

happy birthday to ME!
happy birthday to me! happy birthday to me! happy birthday dear ME-EE! happy birthday to ME!!! FINALLY THE BIG 23! wahooo!!

today was also the first day of school. it wasnt too bad at all! it was actually fun. i hope i wasnt too nice. i got a lot of bday cards, a candle from my mentor, a lotto ticket from cynthia, some pens and a lot of well wishes! it was nice! went out to fox and hound with some of the people from work and then dinner with the family. it was a nice calm bday. lets see what happens tomorrow at work!! cant wait!

the insanity begins (or continues. . .whatever!)
one thing about my life that i never get surprise by is insanity. from people, nature, the world, EVERYTHING! amazingly it never ends! i think sometimes its hard to handle all of it alone. i think thats sometimes why i wish i had someone in my life =/

oddly enough, i saw a lousianna blue civic, similar to G's car. it was weird as hell! two girls were in it. . .it was dark so i couldnt get a good look at them. they turned at cook on bellaire. could it be his sister? some crazy stuff!!

i hate dumbasses. doesnt everyone? selfish dumbasses!! grrrr! dayam FAWKER!

shopping was nice today. im still looking for shoes but arent we all? =)

Random Musings

ONE MORE WEEK TILL MY BIRTHDAY!!
YEAH!!

i love this whole teacher thing. all this cool free stuff! hehe =)

check out Gavin DeGraw's Chemical Party. its a cool song! its basically about smoking out and having fun (which i dont do cuz im a good girl =D) but its still a catchy fun song!!

Training: Day 1
so WOW! talking about a lot of stress taken off! today in group planning, the dept planned out lessons until the middle of september. its pretty easy cruising. my room is the long computer room. not all bad, but now ive gotta figure out how im gonna decorate it and get rid of all the computer speakers in my cabinets. it was interesting meeting the rest of the department. i think its gonna be tons of fun so im excited! i really which Cathy (the other asian teacher) was my mentor, i think she was hoping to be my mentor too, ya know, two longhorns! hehe. . but instead one of the instructional specialists is gonna be my mentor. how do i feel about that? im not sure. but it'll be okay.

so first day: good! tomorrow's suppose to be pretty boring but we'll see how it goes!

general inquiry
do all guys just want sex? does instant gratification solve everything when you're in your twenties? im starting to believe that its gonna be hard to meet a guy who wants something beyond "wham, bam, maybe thank you maam!"

pessimistic?

probably not. . .its probably more realistic.

until i find mr right for me, im gonna have to get through all the horn dogs out there! haha
