First Day of Second Placement

2003-03-19T01:55:05Z

Well today was an interesting day. I started at West Middlesex. At first it made me a little nervous but by the end of the day my coop was starting to warm up to me. It was starting to get a little more relaxed. A sigh of relief from me. My first graders are so cute. It is a big change though. Overall the first day experience was a positive one and it is nice to have some other grove city student teachers in the building.
After student teaching katie and i had decided to go to the gym. I should have realized that that would no happen. Instead we went to Barnes and Nobles. It was a fun trip. When I got in the car i got my birthday present. IT WAS FABULOUS!!!!!! I got this purse I have been drowling over for a good 6 months. I am so excited to use it and I got a book. The book is surviving your 20s. I would definitely recommend it. Again... best birthday present ever!!! I am so excited about the purse.
At B&N, we browsed the book selections, got iced mochas and ended up siting by this HOT boy who smelled SOOOOOO GOOD. You just had to sit their and smell the air. YUMMY!!! Oh lord he smelled good. Then on the way home this carful of boys drove up beside us and started yelling things and honking. Why this happened I am not completely sure. It was quit honestly a little scary. How come I attract weird idiotic boys???? I do not attract normal nice boys but weeeeeeeeird ones. It is the story of my life!
On a side note my birthday weekend was nice and low key. I went to lunch with my dad, dinner and shopping with my mom and then drew and i watched Swimfan and Almost Famous. Swimfan was interesting. I don't know if it is one I would see again and again but overall I liked it. I had already seen Almost Famous. Drew wanted to see it because he has an odd obsession with Kate Hudson. He has decided he wants to marry her for a year or two just to use her. Also, he is not going to buy her an engagement ring but instead propose with a bag of fruit snacks. How could a girl refuse that??? HAHAHAHA
Well I need to go clean my fountain out. It has been lovely!

Library...

2003-03-11T23:23:47Z

Ok today i have had way too much time in the library for my own good. I am in the middle of working a 2 hour shift. Before that I was here from 2:30-5... and from 11:30-12:45. For me who has barely been in the library all semester, it is a long time.
Earlier some girl was talking to her friend about how she has all of this work to do. She went on and on about how she doesn't have time for anything and how she is just trying to keep up. She went through what she had to do for the rest of the frickin year... was that at all necessary! Ok here is my advice... maybe if u didn't talk to much about what u had to do and actually did it u would be better off. Smart aren't I!!!!
Besides being at the library, I went out to lunch with Jess, Karen and Sarah. It was nice but I am getting a little sick of eating out. I think it is because I can feel my ass getting bigger!!! Also today I got stood up by eric.. *insert anger* We we suppose to do something at 11 but he was MIA. Stupid Eric!!! Well that is all my attention span can allow for right now.

2003-03-06T00:24:46Z

I am almost done with my first placement. I can't believe it has been 7 weeks. I remember it was just yesterday that I started and had my first meeting. Wow... time really does move on... funny how things work.
Today I went to Cell 1 to get my phone fixed. I walk in all innocent and shit... I walk up to the first person avaliable and look up to see Jason rakoci. Now for those of you who do not know who this is, it is the cutest boy on the face of the earth and Katie has been drowling over him for years... (not that I haven't but it has been less time) He currently has a Moby thing going for him because he has no hair. I am not sure if it works for him or not but none the less he is still cute. Well the efficient little thing fixed my phone. It is sooo nice. Now i can talk on my cell phone from the comfort of my room and people can hear me. LOVE IT...
On a completely unrelated note... I have a bone to pick with Disney. It has to do with Beauty and the Beast. DO they completely forget that at the end of Beauty and the Beast that the Beast turns back into a MAN!!! Why then do they insist to keep coming out with new movies where the Beast is still a beast????? I know they probably have their reasons but they are not good enough. He is now a PRINCE people... get it through your head.

school...

2003-02-25T23:09:08Z

Ok student teaching is starting to get a little tiresome. I really enjoy it but it can get old on days with people constantly watching you and constantly telling you what you need to change or what you are doing bad. I really like it but sometimes it just gives me a headache.
I just realized that I need to start looking for a job for a. this summer (since drew's idea of working for clint is kind not plausable) and b. my life. It is kind of daunting. I am going to try to begin my search tonight :) Well i gotta go do work. This is just my little update :)

My thoughts...

2003-02-21T22:49:07Z

I have been trying to let my computer let me sign on to livejournal for the past two days. Finally it let me again. I have some thoughts to share with everyone.

1. This thought dates back to last Monday. My mommy took me to panera bread :) It was suppose to be a nice little lunch. The little bitches at Panera bread fucked up my order. First I said can i have chicken noodle soup in a regular bowl. The lady thought that I said bread bowl so she rung it up as such. Then after paying and looking that the receipt we realized the mistake. So we went back and told her. She said that she thought i said bread bowl and then looked at me and said... "you said you wanted a bread bowl..." ahhh no bitch i didn't!!! Then she grudgingly gave us our money back. Then we go to pick up our order and the lady at the things was like here u can just have the bread bowl since it is already made and i will have to throw it away anyway. I responded by saying huh... she said that it was ok just take the bread bowl. May i note that I DON'T LIKE BREAD BOWLS!!!! I said no that I wanted it in a regular bowl. The lady was just like WHAT???? Let me repeat I want a normal bowl. She glared at me and gave me a normal soup bowl. As I was leaving she said... Well I hope someone likes chicken noodle soup in a breadbowl... SINCE WE HAVE ONE NOW!!! She looked directly at me while saying it. ARGHHHH... I understand that they want to get rid of it but they could have not tried to force it down my throat!!!

2. My second thought. Why do I get stuck in the classroom full of children who puke????? On Wednesday another children threw up in my class!!! Then he replied that he was alright and he could stay in school. Uhhhhh NO!!! This is the second child to throw up while I am teaching. Should I take this as a hint?

3. Thought three... well it was going to be something else but I suddenly have something to share. I just dumped a bottle of water on myself while at work, while a tour walked by :) Lucky me... now i sit here with my jeans soaking wet because i am a klutz...

4. On thursday I got my hair highlighted. Well I am sitting their correcting papers when a man comes it. He lookes at me and was like i remember my high school days, doing homework, studying, being at home, etc. He then goes on to ask me what grade I am in and what I am studying. Then someone called him so he had to leave. I wanted to say that I AM 21 ALMOST DONE WITH COLLEGE!!!! I realize i look young for my age but must i keep getting confused for a high school student.

Well that is all i have to say for now. I am getting tired of writing. I am sure i will have more to add at a seperate point in time... oh before i go. Here is some sad news... the wrap around has a girlfriend :( I swear i attract those with girlfriends and those who do not like girls :(.... Eh such is life... I have been saying such is life a lot or you will have that... they are my new phrases. Ok i am going to go read :)

hello all....

2003-02-16T16:03:30Z

Well the weekend is starting to near its end but at least tomorrow I don't have to go to school!!! This weekend has been fun. On Friday I went to see DareDevil. It was an interesting movie to say the least. I thought it was funny and was yelled at because i kept laughing ;) This was the fun part of my night. The rest of my Friday night involved getting food, working, and turning in paper work. On a side note I got my commuter parking pass. This made me happy :) On Saturday I got up so at 1030ish drew and i could go shopping for work clothes for him. He wanted my wonderful fashion advice. Afterwards we went to eat. I tried an interesting vegetable stuffed pizza deal. I liked it!!! Finally in our afternoon of fun we went to the furniture store. Drew is amused by the fact that the furniture store is 36 months, no payments, no interest. So that is 3 years of furniture without paying for the furniture. I swear the lady thought we were a cute engaged couple looking for furniture for our furture dwelling place. She was looking at out with that awwwwww look. No mam we are not engaged we are just to WEIRD people looking at furniture!!!! Later that night I went to go see How to loose a guy in 10 days. THE MOVIE IS SOOOO FUNNY!!! I really liked it. There was some other stuff that happened during the day but I am sure u don't need a play by play of my life.
eh i am out of thoughts for the time being. I am going to go lay down again and perhaps sleep.

Katie

2003-02-06T01:39:04Z

a little quote from my mom about my life now: "all you do now is travel in bags!!!".... hmmmmmmmmm.... i see her point but that can be taken in a few ways!!!

It has been a while!!!

2003-02-05T02:56:40Z

it has been a while since i have had time to write. i noticed it has been a week, when i was checking the link on my profile because eric said it wasn't working. student teaching is not a lot of work planning wise it is the paper work that is killing me. also, as a quick side note for this entry i am going on strike against capitals. it takes to much time to hold that little shift key... yes i am lazy.
here is a quick overview of what i have been up to:
wednesday and thursday... basically i went to school, came back did work, went to bed... the same old same old.
friday... went to school then went to gcc. while at gcc i had to go help with castle building. it was fun and most of the time was spend b.s.ing with eric and my girls. You know how it is reliving old memories... then after castle building erin, mandy, eric, jess, mac and i went to benjamins to have a little belated birthday celebration for jess. i was just happy to eat. i got back at around 11... and drew and i had our weekly bonding time. aka we sat and watched tv for an hour and caught up with what the other was doing.
saturday... had formals.. then at night i went out with mandy, erin and john to celebrate mandy's birthday :) nuff said there... nothing more to add...
sunday... formals again, went to the grocery store with my mom... went to bed early.
monday... back to my weekly teaching schedule, then went to gcc for practicum. After that we had table pounding, chapel and our ketler rec party. GOOD LUCK CHRIS, MELODY AND HEATHER!!!!
today... my goal for student teaching is now to make one of the wrap arounds my new friend.

Now comes the humor aspect of my journal. When my fourth graders were asked what they could do to end child labor... i got some interesting responses but by far my favorite was as follows:
* boil some water
* call the hospital
* get an adult
* help them with breathing
For some reason I thought this answer was the funniest thing ever!!!! it was cute in a way.
As another side note i had campus security... those little bitches will not give me my commuter parking pass and it is starting to piss me off a little. I just want to park in commuter!!!!!
alright well i have exceeded my alotted time for typing in my live journal but oh well... time for bed!

Well I am officially done with my first week of student teaching. It went well. I am really happy with everything. It, at least so far, hasn't turned out as a horror. My teacher is really cool. Well one week donw, six weeks left... for this placement at least.
Well right now I am at work. This is fine I am going to make a total of like 10 dollars tonight... whatever. The freaky part is that no one is here. Just me and the dust. Fuuuuuun. Oh wait what is that I spot. 1 person. Now my dear boy... WHY THE HELL ARE YOU HERE??????? Anyway back to why I started this fun little narrative. The silence and my tiredness is going to do me in. I am sooooo sleepy right now. I want to lay my head down on the desk and just sleep. Which we all know that i have been known to do before.
One may ask why I am tired. Well my friends that is what student teaching does to you. It makes you tired... ALL THE TIME!!! a. you get no sleep.. and that sleep you do get is very off kilter... b. you are constantly under the microscope.... c. see a and b again they are both very good reasons.
Well i am sick of writing... so that is it for now!

A 4th Graders view on land

2003-01-23T02:53:17Z

Ok so we all know that I am now student teaching. Well I am in my real placement... not that Head Start wasn't real but you know. Today i had my little 4th grades write on why land is important. Some of the responses were interesting to say the least. Some include:
1. We need land because without it we would drown.
2. we need land to sleep... if we went to sleep and there was no land we would die.
3. we need land to raise chickens.
4. we need land so we don't get eaten by sharks.
5. we need land so we don't get tired of swimming.

There are more but these are the ones I remember!!! Well it is my bed time.. i would write more but i have been distracted by aol conversations. Night

Hatred...

2003-01-19T14:22:52Z

Last night I was excited because I could get 9 hours of sleep. Fate laughed at me because at 7:30 I woke up to an odd beeping noise. After about 5 minutes I thought it was the fire detector. I took out the battery but it was still beeping. A normal person would think oh it is something else... not me. I get out a new battery and put it in. Still beeping. I call my mom after 10 more minutes and express my hatred for the beeping. Now 30 minutes into my endeavor there is still a beeping. So I listen to the fire detector and think that maybe the beeping is not coming from there. I go and listen to the carbon monoxide detector and realize that is where the beeping is coming from. My mom tells me to get the other detector from downstairs and plug it in. Sooooo I go downstairs get that detector, come back up and then plug that one in. Once we realized that there wasn't a health risk from carbon monoxide I worked on finding the battery to the defective detector. This took like 5 minutes where in the process i took the entire detector off the wall. About 45-50 minutes after the process had started it was now quiet. It is amazing how nice silence can be. This is why i was awake to early today!!!
It has been a while since I have had time to write. A lot has happened... nothing to extreme just a lot of nice little things. Let me quickly review the highlights since last time I wrote.
Thursday:
My last early childhood student teaching meeting. It was exciting. I again got to see our retarded new building that is lacking either heat or light at any given time. Niiiiiice. Then since I had to go to the outlets, I took Drew and Mike with me. We made a pitt stop at Wendy's the dinner place of choice. After this I went to the paper factory to get pencils for my head start class and mike had to go to Reebok to return something. While he was returning drew and i watched basketball reviews on espn... without sound. Fuuuuun. Well that is about all of the fun of that day.
Friday:
My last day of early childhood student teaching. It is funny how quickly it went by!!! I will miss these little kids. I want to take them home with me... especially one little boy. I think that would be bad though. After student teaching I went out with Erin, Mandy and Heather. We went to Bravo... I loooove that resturant. No i love the bread at that place. The bread and that heavenly olive oil bread dippy stuff. I seriously would kill for that olive oil. It is the best stuff ever. Then we all went back to Erin's to spend the night and exchange gifts. I got a rock garden (WHICH I HAVE WANTED FOREVER) and a zen garden. Both are very fun for me. I love the sound of the trickling water. It is soooo calming :) :) :) :) Finally I got one. I love my roommate :) Then we did the usual look through cosmo (where mandy was fascinated by some of the information ;)) and watched tv. I slept through most of Lilo and Stich which is sad because I wanted to see it but I was so tired that I couldn't keep my eyes open.
Saturday:
I came home, after a quick stop at Best Buy... well I had to force myself to leave best buy because i wanted to buy the whole store. Later in the evening, Mandy, Erin, Drew and I went to see Ricky's band at the coffee grinder... Drew was truely introduced to Western PA culture with that trip. Come to think of it he was even introduced to eastern ohio culture when he missed the exit to my house and ended up in ohio. It was a scenic little side trip!!! It was fun. Then after a quick stop at Theta Chi we came back to myhouse. We watched the Melsi video and by then it was around 12:00. So everyone slowly gathered their things and left.

Overall it was a very fun weekend. Just what I needed after a long week teaching and an upcoming long week teaching. I have a feeling I am going to be living for weekends. Such is life. I love all of my friends :)

Real Quick

2003-01-16T02:02:52Z

I decided to make a short update to let everyone know about my thrilling life. I have been following my now usual schedule of getting up, going to teach, running errons, coming home to do work pretty much everyday this week. My one outing was to grove city where i saw a bunch of my friends including jess, mandy, sarah and drew. The girls I ate with and drew i tracked down to see if he had pictures of snow.
On a side note in the past three days I have been asked which child is mine in head start, what grade I am in, if i am planning on going back to school in the spring, if i am ever planning on being a teacher and how do i like being a high school volunteer... Yes i know i look young but pllleaaaasssse!!! a. i do not have any children b. i am almost done with school so yes i am going to finish it and c. i am 21 and not in high school anymore. :-p
It has been a thrilling week so far. Always an adventure. These past two weeks have gone by so quickly. I am getting a little sick of seeing my room though because I have been in it A LOT. Well timmmme for bed.

Today was a delightful day. My mom and I went to church at noon. While there I again saw little Clint. I am not sure if I have told any one about little clint... for those of you who do not know little clint is this boy who is probably 13 and looks JUST LIKE CLINT!! it is sooooo scary.
Ok so we have a new priest at my church. He is a tad on the slow side... but that isn't bad. the bad thing is that his sermons are soooo confusing. I think about 5 minutes into I turned to my mom and was like I am sooo lost... she replied, I haven't followed him since he started speaking. He starts off strong and ends strong but the middle is just so CONFUSING.
My final church moment was I broke the kneeler. I have no idea what happened but it definately detached from the seat. My mom and I should not be allowed into churches. Last week she almost sets it on fire this week I destroy a kneeler.
Earlier I went to visit my dad at his store. One the way home I went to Target. Ok I realized that i absolutely LOOOOVE that store. I think it is the best place on earth. i am going to decorate my home in everything from target. I want my towels, shower curtain, pillows, sheets, etc. all from target. I will be the person who will have my register there... not somewhere nice and upscale. They were having a lot of sales, so I got some cool stuff :)
Right now I am watching Outbreak. It is about this airbourne virus that kills people within two days. After watching this I am never going out in public again. It freaks me out so much, yet I cannot turn it off. Yeah I am not normal... :/

Headache

2003-01-12T14:05:10Z

Don't you hate when you wake up with a headache. I think i slept wrong last night because i had this ponytail in my head. My neck or something got twisted. Ouch! Anyway it is not a good start to the day when you waking up not feeling refreshed because of a pounding behind your eyes... well some tylenol will cure that.
Last night I think was not a good night for anyone. The steelers lost and some other things happened to some of my friends that I will not mention on here. Needless to say it was a sad night in the area. On the positive side Melsi called last night :) and left me with an interesting thought. Besides talking to people on the phone, which let me tell you I felt so popular because I hardly ever get phone calls, I got some of my work done. I have lesson plans for my three week science unit done up to week three day two. I still have a little over a week to work on it. I will have it done or die trying.
Also, I think I am starting to become a little bit of a recluse. I need to work on that. It is starting to worry me a little. Ever since I got home. :/ I am not sure if it is from the cold. My house is just so warm and i haaaaate being cold so i don't want to leave the warm. If that is it I get that from my grandma. Well I am going to go brush my teeth, put my contacts in... you know the usual morning activities.

Today

2003-01-11T23:06:28Z

This morning I woke up at my usual 6:30am but instead of teaching I got to go take a PRAXIS test. Woo Hoo!!! Little did I know that my proctor would be a detail nazi. Since not everyone was there we had to WAIT until 8:15 to begin our test. We won't mention the fact that it was 45 minutes of sitting there doing nothing at 730 in the morning... I know this is a rule and all but most people don't pay attention to it. They will just let them catch up when they come in. Well NONE of these people showed up so we started to fill in the answer sheet (like name, address and such) at 815 and finally at 830 i started my test. Well at least it is over.
My other thrill of the day was when Katie and I went to Borders (our hang out) and then to Taco Bell for dinner. We did the usual at Borders... get magazines, read them, and then leave. I also made a fool out of myself by talking to loud and saying something embarrassing!!! I have a tendency to shit, fuck, damn or some other word WAY TOO LOUD!!!

I don't have anything witty to say here

2003-01-11T02:50:58Z

Today was a usual day. I went to student teaching. Today though I actually got to teach. I lead the morning meeting, the circle time and fish circle time. Circle time was a lesson type deal and my supervisor observed me. She said I did a good job just to watch my language. I said sheeps on accident and used the terms these ones and guys. Big no nos in teaching!!! Overall the day went well. It was a little nerve wracking but all worked out in the end. And still want to take each of those children home with me
After teaching I went to the bank and the grocery store. I love the grocery store. It is so much fun to walk down the aisles and look at all the food. Hmmmm I wonder if i was ever analyzed what that would mean.
Anyho... after all that I came home and sat down for a while. Then I took a short trip to visit Katie and Rowan. Rowan is soooooo cute and has gotten so big :) She is adorable... even when she is in a bad mood. For all of those who don't know Rowan is Katie's niece and is a year old. The last time I saw her was in July or August. I love kids :) Also during my visit we attempted... or rather Katie since all I did was read the directions... made latte. MMMMMMMM coffee... not my usual mocha but still very good all the same. I hear a vast improvement over her first attempt.. thank god.
On a side note I think my new sleeping schedule is putting me out of wack. I am so use to staying up until 12 or 1 and now i have to be in bed at 10-1030. I feel like I am missing hours of the day. It is slightly disturbing and is throwing me off kilter.
The rest of my night has been wasted away doing either work or talking on IM. I studied a little bit for my test tomorrow morning at 730. It is my last PRAXIS test and tomorrow I am going to feel the need to celebrate, which I plan on doing one way or another. Not a eventful evening but I decided at like 6ish that I did not feel like leaving my house. It has been most relaxful (yeah this isn't a word... i know). Everyone should try this at one point of another!!!! I highly recommend it... not often but once and awhile. It takes awhile to get over the boredom phase but u do eventually and enter relaxing period!!! Well off to bed I again must get up early but I am getting use to it.
