Tater Tots

So, Friday I borrowed some money for lunch and went and bought some tater tots. I didn't have time to eat them all before class though.

If there was only some way I could have saved them so I could be blessed with their taste later in the day!

The Deal

Okay, so here is what has been up with school. It seems like there is always something that goes wrong.

So, I have this class about teaching. As part of the class, we have to teach. So, three hours a week are spent learning about teaching and three hours are spend at U-High using our new found knowledge. We register for each part seperately.

I went to my class Monday night and learn that my teacher is Dr. Benson. Then I also find out that she is my "mentor teacher person" (the teacher I spend the three hours a week with at U-High). She tells me that I can't have the same teacher for both the class and the U-High lab and I need to drop her class.

Here is my problem. My schedule is not so flexible that I can just be like "Hey, I think I am just going to drop this class and maybe add this one..." Also, there is no way I could have know while registering that I had the same teacher and, more importantly, known it was going to be a problem. Personally, I don't think she should teach both if things like this would be a problem.

The good news is I have switched out of her class but she is still my mentor teacher person. Hopefully, we can start to get along better. Also, my new teacher is being very understanding and realizing that it isn't my fault. He is meeting with me individually to catch me up on the two weeks I missed.

The bad news is that I no longer have Tuesday nights free. That is when we have singing practice. Now I am sad and Dwight is probably more stressed. I feel really bad about all of this :(

Student

Okay so... just to let ya'll know, we will be hosting another student starting Feb 13 and this time I will keep you informed, not that any of you care.

She is from Asahikawa, Japan which is where I traveled as an exchange student. So, I haven't used any Japanese in seven years so we will see what (if anything) I remember.

It is time for lunch so I am going to eat my chicken noodle soup. Peace out....

Napoleon Dynamite

Which Napolean Dynamite Character are you? I was the tater tots....

Seriously

Let me know what you think.... It makes me think a lot about why God put us here.

New Building

The new ISU Business building is sooooooo cool. You have to take a look at it. You can read all about it here.

Enjoy!

Classes

Well, today was the first official day of classes (I don't have any on Tuesdays and Thursdays). However, I have been working on one of my internet classes all through break. I thought you guys might like to take a look at it. It is supposed to be the "future of education" but we will see. I like it. It is a lot of fun. The class is "Social Foundations of Education." You can login as a visitor. Have fun!

MY CLASS!!

Christmas is Over

So, my break is pretty much over. Tomorrow is working and Wednesday I have classes. So, I am back blogging. I think it helps keep me happy during the school year. So, while today is MLK day so it is a day off, I will make this short. Here is a verse I was reading the other night with my husband. Let me know how it makes you feel...

THE BAD NEWS IS...
(The LORD speaking here)
When you spread out your hands in prayer,
I will hide my eyes from you;
even if you offer many prayers,
I will not listen.

THE GOOD NEWS IS...
"Come now, let us reason together,"
says the LORD .
"Though your sins are like scarlet,
they shall be as white as snow;
though they are red as crimson,
they shall be like wool.
If you are willing and obedient,
you will eat the best from the land;
but if you resist and rebel,
you will be devoured by the sword."
For the mouth of the LORD has spoken.

Larry has been talking a lot about being devoted in prayer for someone but is God hearing those prayers?
