Summer Reading List

So do you remember from childhood when your mom would take you to the library in summer and you would get like a reading list of books for your age and reading level and a "cool" book mark. Yes, well those days are over and I don't really mind. I never read but 2-3 books on that list all summer. I am NOT a reader. Even if I find a decent book that I mostly like it takes me forever to read, I am a slow reader and picky. I only like really interesting things that grab your attention right off the bat. That being said, I have read 4 books already this summer and it is just the end of June. =] I'll tell you what I've read and try to make a list of more, to keep this reading going.

Brisingr- the third book in the Inheritance cycle(eragon, eldest, brisingr, inheritance). It's about dragons and magic and I did not think I would like it. My sister had me start reading and I loved them. (you will notice, my sister is quite the reader and suggests all the books I read) I have to wait until November or something for the 4th book. I was like half way through this book but I just don't have time when I am at school to read as much as I do during the summer.

The Northern Lights Series-
(suggested by sister) These are all really great romance-ships/captains/pirates-christian-immigration-farming-community-family-friendship-marriage-babies-death-etc.kinda books (lol just listed main themes or w/e) I really liked them. the catch... it is pretty much a chick flick minus cinematography = a book. lol def chick flick books.
The Captain's Bride- so good!!
Deep Harbor- fabulous!!
Midnight Sun- awesome!!

now, book list. what to read next? suggestions are welcome!!
.....         ...   .........   ???

Today 4-29-2011

In case you wanted to know here is an overview of my day:
Last day of class for my junior year. finals left then i'm done. very exciting. =]
so let's see... today, i went to class. worked on homework. ate lunch went to a meeting w/ a prof. painted outside. ate dinner. went to work... yep so interesting huh. aren't you glad you now know. 

other peices of my day... 1. my feet hurt. lol i have almost flat feet. nearly no arch and so shoes with any sort of arch hurt my feet. i wore my vans today. i don't usually wear them. for some reason after like 2 hours my feet were killing me. oh duh, they have a big arch (well to my feet it was big) haha sooo i changed into chucks =] 
2. I tried a new braided hair do. hahaha didn't work so well. my hair is a bit frizzy right now. need a trim and a deep condition then maybe try again. lol


thats really all ---

I'm Sorry.

To all my former teachers, I apologize. I do not claim to be an amazing or perfect teacher. I have yet to even student teach. But, as I learn more about teaching I am critiquing you. Every lesson you taught and differentiated, or not. Every disciplinary problem you took care of or didn't. Every project, every test... I am sorry for all the critiquing but just think of it as really you are teaching me, what to do or what not to. and I thank you for that. So really I suppose this is both an apology and a thank you. take it as you will.
Regardless I applaud you all and hope to be half what you are...(ok really I hope to be twice what you are. but that isn't the expression. and that only applies to some)

-peace-

nothing insight just informing you of the lameness of IN

       I got a week in Cleveland (spring break) and I can't wait to be back. I detest Indiana right now because I want to be home so bad. However, when I was driving back to school IN greeted me with a lovely sunset, that was nice. But not sufficient to cover the rest of the lameness.... most of all, Tswift playing 90% of the time in the bathroom... really?? people like her enough to listen to her constantly?? I mean it isn't even a mixed country CD or something, I could dig that. other lame things about Anderson: Food, lack of Hood, lack of good shopping close, lack of my family, lots of work, little time. yep lame I know.

yesterday, all my troubles seemed so far away...
oh I believe in yesterday.

Is leather coming back?

I wore my $5 pleather jacket from Marc's (that is like a big lots/Deals for all my non Buckeye friends). It is beautiful outside so I wanted to wear a light jacket. I got to class and sat down. Two more girls walk in with leather jackets on. A guy behind me says, "Is leather coming back?" and the girl next to him (no leather jacket on) says I guess so. haha I wanted to say, did you guys not see the January issue of INSTYLE? however I wasn't sure if that was the right issue so I said nothing. Really though, I don't think a leather jacket is ever not "in", how can it come back if it was never out.

I was at a party, and I saw a guy with a leather jacket, and I thought, 'That's cool'. Then I saw a guy with a leather vest and I thought, 'That's not cool'. It was then that I realized what coolness is all about... leather sleeves.
