You are now reading the entry of a new teacher! That's right, I got hired! I'm teaching at the same school where I interned last year....4th grade Language Arts and Math! How cool is our God!?

Super Summer 2007

Sometimes I forget just how wonderful Super Summer is.

I get really caught up in the logistics of decorating my school room and organizing things (my passion) that I don't remember how much God moves.

Healing has happened immensely over the past 6 months. So much so that this year's Super Summer has been like a whole new experience. I don't have incredible emotional distractions nor do I feel overwhelmed by lonliness. I'm just getting to fully experience my raw life as it is affected by the Healer.

Deep, huh? ; )

Up-dizate

Dang! A lot happens in six months! : )

Well, I'm out. I am officially out of college! Praise God from whom all blessings flow!

I graduated with my Masters in Education a couple of weeks ago and the word "relieved" doesn't even begin to describe how I feel!

Now...onto finding a job. So far, the pickings are quite slim. If anyone knows of a school that needs a middle school English/Reading/Math teacher....LET ME KNOW! Kelli and I could both use the help!

As for the romance front...well...dry as ever!  I'm not really upset about that, though. I actually am so busy that a boyfriend would not even fit....that's right, Celeste...keep telling yourself that....

Instead, it's a beautiful summer night and I'm sitting here at work.....at 10:30 pm....it's actually kinda creepy now that I think about it!

Super Summer's next week. That's exciting. I do love me some Super Summer.

Then, I have 3 weeks of Seneca Lake! : ) YAY! I love that place.

Ok....I think I've sufficiently wasted your time! 'Night!

Wow!

Holy cow, it's been a long time since I've written in this thing!

Sadly, I've been sucked into the myspace world.  It's a route I didn't expect to take, but alas, I have.

I've missed my xanga, though.  I'd forgotten how utterly dark it is.  Maybe I should spruce it up.  Hmmm....

Well, here are the updates:

1. I was proposed to.  That's right.  Somebody actually wanted to marry me.  Can you believe it?  You'd better not.  It's false!  I just made that up because nothing incredibly interesting has actually happened and I needed a great eye-catching intro.  It worked though, right?

ok...for real.

1. I am in my 5th full month as an intern in a 4th grade classroom.  I love it.  Love the kids. Love my CT and LOVE teaching! : )

2. I am (once again) annoyed at the few, obscure paths that I see for my future.  Stay in Ohio for a couple of years and teach?  Move to the south (Georgia? the Carolinas?) ?  Who knows.  I keep putting off making this life-altering decision because when it comes to important things- I'm a procrastinator.

3. Pastor Ron retired and I'm super-depressed about it.  I mean, really really sad.

It's been a long time...shouldn't've left you...without a dope beat to step to...

Wow!  I haven't updated this thing in months.  Not that people even read it anymore! : )

Well, to update you, I'm just gonna go down a list:

1. I'm teaching 4th graders as a graduate intern all year.  They have my heart...be prepared to read stories about them.  They're hilarious.
2. I work a lot.  Not as much as I'd like, due to classes, but as much as possible to keep my sanity for now.
3. Grad school classes=poop. tired. poop.
4. I've started taking multi-vitamins daily.  They were necessary if I planned on getting through this year with a clean bill of health.
5. My car window was broken in about a month ago.  They didn't get my stereo...those little turds tried, though.
6. I went on a date.  Yeah, I know...that's old news.  But it was a big step for me!  It didn't work out, but it was still fun! : ) 
7. My intramural football and volleyball teams both suck.  Largely in part to me, I know.  We're 0-4 across the board.  So sad.

I wish I was more interesting, but as you can see...I'm not.  Fall Conference is this weekend and I'm looking forward to it.  God bless Seneca Lake and all its beauty.
