writers block
I am currently working on my application to a teaching fellows org in the big easy and I am stumped on those stupid questions about why you want to be a teacher blah blah. I keep writing and erasing the same generic responses.
Obvs, the answer for distraction inspiration is Tumblr.
But speaking of teaching, I haven’t told you guys how AMAZE my spring placement is. I feel blessed blessed...

Currently in placement.
Currently watching Obama’s speeches to learn about persuasion.
CURRENTLY LISTENING TO REDNECK MIDDLE SCHOOLERS BE MOUTH PIECES FOR THEIR REDNECK PARENTS.
Not blaming them. Blaming their ignorant parents. Not a perfect prez by any means, don’t get me wrong, but if I hear one more time “All he does is pay for lazy bums to do nothing.”

an emo post brought to you by a long week
Thoughts:
-Advice provided by the Internet is the worst kind of advice.
-I can’t wait to see Thomas tonight, even if it is only for a quick second in between his trips to NY and NC.
-If I couldn’t go home to my parent’s this weekend, I really might lose my mind. But seriously.
-TGIF could not get here any faster.
-I’m sleepy.
/end whining. FOR NOW.

things I am excited for
-Thomas leaves for New York tomorrow. I already can’t wait for him to come home Wednesday night.
-I can’t wait for next weekend, when Nala and I go home to my parent’s house for a few days. I haven’t been home in a while (for me), and with wedding stresses, school stresses, and life stresses, NOTHING will feel better than curling up in my old bed in my old bedroom and...

Thursday was gross.
Student teaching all day is hard you guys. Especially when your placement is 30 minutes away (35 if you include a Starbucks trip). ESPECIALLY when you have to be there at 7:40 AM. I’m at a really good school and my host teacher is awesome and the kids are baby angels, so I’m trying to be posi, but no denying my days are long and exhausting.
And today the week kind of caught up with...

My students totally GET me.
7th grader: Even though Justin Timberlake is a lot older than me, I can still dream about him, right.
Me: So, so right.

high five for FRIDAY
I’m linking up with Lauren From My Grey Desk today for her High Five for Friday link party.
1. Dead Sea Spa Care.
This is gross, but in the winter rings REALLY irritate my skin. And my beautiful engagement ring is marred by the flaky red skin around it. I’ve tried EVERYTHING to remedy this problem, and out of desperation, I picked this stuff up in Folly Beach. Ever since using...

accomplishing goals!
For the first time, ever, I had a week that was light on the school and light on the work. So, since this is truly kismet and will probably never happen again, I made a point to go to at least one different group fitness class everyday. My school has a gawgeous new gym with a variety of classes Monday - Thursday, so why not drag my butt up there and try a new one everyday?
And the great thing...
