Schoooool!

Well the past two weeks have been fun in school...Last week was a living hell week. The kids had the previous 2 weeks with CSAP, so they missed 2 out of the 5 days in the week, and they really did not do much work. So it was really hard getting them back into the swing of things, but by the end of the week they were rolling...but next week is spring break so they will be lazy after that again.

But this week we are doing this cool project that I created. It builds off of the last project I made them do, where they created their own countries. Now they have to industrialize their countries. So thy have to create a map of their countries, cities, and show how they industrialized. It is pretty interesting.

Well School is winding down I almost have only a month left...weird...Then life starts...Speaking of life, I applied to this really cool summer camp in Italy, where I would be teaching english to young Italians, It is in Northern Italy So I will be gone for about 3 - 4 months. Housing food and everything is paid for. I just need to get over there. It will work out great because i could travel a bit when I was there too, If that does not work out i applied for a manager space at the pool, so I will have a job either way, and then I will go travel in Aug - sept/oct, not sure yet. We will see. Just need to be back by my sisters weding.

As for the GF, We are doing great I not robbed her house laitly, I think she locks it now ;). But we went up and had a deep philisopical night under the stars with my budy Carl, it was good times. lol we were up there for almost 3 hours...and my car did not get broken into!!!! yay! Also went to an Aves game with Steph and her parents, it was cool! But the Aves lost :( boo! And we had a foto day jajaja where she locked her keys in the car...funny stuff :).

Well that is life in the nutshell, yay Washington DC next week!
Adios

Well I'm over half way done with my Student teaching, I'm almost ready to graduate! This is crazy! Life is really starting to role down a hill. Some noteable mentions for the last week...
THE ROBBERY! jajajaja
So I ran into Stella up in Fort Collins when I was coming home last week, and we got to talking about Steph. Notable we started talking about how she did not lock her door. And we realized we both had nothing to do during the day, so we took a group vote and voted unanimously 2 - 0 that we should go rob Steph. lol So we caravaned down to Boulder and proceded to take her computer, TV, Dresser, carpet, her hats, and camera! We had about 2 cars full of stuff, it was amazing. Then we walked back into the room, and it was just a little bit to neat...so we tore it apart! jajaja we looked as if we were professional robbers, it was amazing. So once we got her place perfect we went to the coffee shop and awaited her call...but it never came! It turned out her phone was dead so she could not call us, so she put it on the charger and went to her neighbors house and had them call the cops on us lol. about 10 minutes later we got ahold of her... and it was the saddest voice I have ever heard! "I got robbed" came from her and Stella and I were like YEA SHE GOT HER LESSON ;)...yes we are terrible...but then we were told she was waiting for the cops....and we broke our cover and told her to call them back and that we had her stuff. about 4 minutes later we were at here house and she was chassing us and punching us...
We put her stuff back in her house and fixed up her house...

Lesson of the day...lock your door! :) she learned it! jajaja other than that, Teaching is going really well. I'm loving it, only about 2 months left, it is crazy...it is all downhill from here. I also have a possible job in Italy, I'm working on the details right now...hopefully it works out!

later gaters!

Time Flys

Wow, I looked at my blog, I thought I wrote something like 3 days ago but it was almost 2 weeks! Then I was looking back at this semester! Holy Crap I have been teaching for 2 months already! I have already been doing swim team for almost 3 weeks! All I know is that my parents were right, the older you get the faster life gets...it sucks ;(, but hey the roller coaster ride is a lot of fun.

Well beyond that deep look on life, what is new with me? Well above all I think the coolest thing out of the last 2 weeks, is that I got a new computer...yes old Dell Mc Dellster was about to die, so I made an executive decision and got myself a graduation present a bit early! And yes I went to the dark side and bought a Macbook. I'm in love....this thing is like my other half that I have been missing my whole entire life. I sleep with it, I eat with it, I shower with it, and a drink with it... If you are lonely you should get one because I think it will fill that hole that you are missing in your life! ...Just no one tell Steph...I think she will get a bit Jealous ;) But I got this Sunday, and it is amazing. It is just so user friendly. I have been able to customize everything to my liking. Switing over to a new operating system and new style has not been really hard, I have picked it up pretty fast. Thing thing I find more interesting is that I seam to be able to type faster with these keyboard...which aproxamently saves me 3.4 minutes every day! yaya! lol jk jk I really have no idea on the numbers.......or do I ?

Well as for school it is going great. I had the funniest problem last week with a student, and it got blow out of praportion. It was sent all the way to the administration! jajajaja. Well long story short...dont piss of a girl when she is already mad ;). But I got it all settled today, there was no problem because she told some lies to the administration so she got in trouble jajaja. As for something cool, I went in and talked to the principal today because he observed me a couple weeks back. He said I was doing pretty good for a student teacher, but the best part was I will be able to get a letter of recomondation from him which is big, because Mr. D is a bit time principle. yaya! I'm so excited! As for class. It is going great, alot easier teaching now, and coming up with lessons. I'm having alot more fun in the classroom. It was great I realted the blockade today to the one in Episode one of Star Wars with the trade federation. Half the kids loved it...the other half thought I was a nerd...lol then I told them I was but it still was a great demonstration of a blockade! Good times.

As for passtime activities I have my first swim meet this week, we are really not prepared, but it should be good fun. We have our first team dinner on Thursday and our first swim meet. last week I went to the School play Beauty and the Beast, and I took Steph. It was grand old time. The mics sucked at the beginning but then it ended up fine by the end of the play. The kids were amazing! Then afterwords I got a great lesson on how to ride a longboard from Steph. She is an ok teacher...I say ok because I think I matched her skills in about 2 minutes...jajajaja. But hey I have had 4 or 5 students in my class who have offered to teach me more. So thanks to Steph leaving me her longboard I'm going to get some lessons from my students. As for the rest of the night we did some star hunting it was fun :). Also last weekend we had a family getogether, with photos and everything. It was great. We had Grandmas great Italian food ;) mmmmmmmm SOOOO GOOOD. The only sad thing is I have to wait till Christmas to get it again! BOOO.

Well I'm off to bed Hope you all are well
