Thursday

(cooking on Tuesday)

This morning (Thursday) the thermometer said that it was about 29 degrees Fahrenheit. I think it is over 40 now.

I met my advisor yesterday. (I've seen her before; she has substituted for my regular Child Development teacher before. But yesterday I met her as my advisor specifically.) Hopefully next Tuesday I can meet with her to discuss next semester more.

I am going to a two-year college right now, but yesterday I also got to talk to people about transferring to extension programs of 4-year (or more) colleges/universities to complete a degree here in the area in Elementary Ed. I liked one of the ladies I talked to.

On Tuesday, I finally unpacked boxes from PR. (This of course should not be taken to imply that I didn't put some of the things into other boxes.) That was an accomplishment (the fact that it took me until mid-October to do this should help you understand).

And I got my desk cleaned off beautifully (but the dresser beside it is full of papers).

Ready for winter?

Today I went shopping for snow boots and a winter coat. I hope that the winter coat is warm enough to be worth buying. (I have an old winter coat.) The boots are nice. (I don't have old winter boots.)

The leaves have been falling. I picked these off the ground at my college. Now I am pressing them for you, Jen...

Today I had a job interview. The interview went well.

An interesting question is now in my mind. What is my favorite age group? Because I said it was around ages 8 - 12. I was thinking of kids I worked with last year. She started talking about fourth grade kids. I don't think I was thinking about "normal" hearing 4th graders. I like them, too, but that wasn't what I meant. How would you say what I meant? And what level DO I like? I like different things about different ages and levels and abilities. DO I have a favorite age, or not?

Child Development is interesting. I should do more homework and/or go to bed soon. :)

Homework

It is Tuesday again. Actually, Tuesday is drawing to a close. Today I have slept, watched a silly video with my brothers, and done some homework.

I really was doing music homework at one point. But when I tried to take a picture of myself doing music homework... It is at best inefficient and at worst shouldn't really count as time spent doing homework.

So taking a picture of yourself while doing homework may not work very well. But how about asking your brother to take a picture of you while you study?

Okay, so I knew he was taking a picture, and that shouldn't count as true study time either. But I did work on reading the book afterwards! (I needed to; the 10 question test/quiz is tomorrow.)

And then my brother took a picture that I didn't pretend to ignore the camera on. He likes to take pictures. Apparently I like to smile.

Tomorrow is Wednesday. I like Wednesday relatively well. Lord willing, I get to help with kids. That's a nice variation.

Tuesday again

I went on a walk with my brothers, and one of them took the picture of me. You can see some yellow leaves. Winter is approaching. I took the picture of the road to help you see why potholes are a taste of home for me. :)
Priscilla is my favorite cat. I missed her sometimes in PR.
Sunday, I went to church and then drove to my college to see an opera. I got there early and ate lunch in the car. I enjoyed watching the birds. This one looked like he considered himself a parking lot security worker.


I'm not sure what I want to say. The week has gotten off to a rough start (Monday and today). So that's when you pray, huh. Maybe you might want to avoid going to a church with a sermon on Paul and Silas when they got put in jail and sang there (Acts 16)? :) Okay. I praise God anyway, even though I'm sad today. :)

P.S. I'm still figuring out how this blog works. I think I changed it so now you can comment without being a member?
