Yes! I am having chocolate cake for breakfast! "DAD IS GREAT! GIVE US THE CHOCOLATE CAKE!" For those of you who don't know that quote, go listen to Bill Cosby--Himself. It's a classic.
So. Why am I having chocolate cake for breakfast, you ask? Actually, Andrew insisted that I have something more breakfast-y first, so I'm having life cereal, and then chocolate cake. Well, Daddy woke me up this morning telling me that we were going to pay my tuition. So I ran out of the house without breakfast. We didn't get tuition payed because the university no longer accepts VISA, but I did get a locker in the WSC that is going to be great.
Coming back home, I was hungry, and the first thing I saw was chocolate cake. As Cosby says: "Children have the ability to see through...and find the wrong thing." So...voila! Chocolate cake for breakfast!
PS: Please keep our family's financial situation in your prayers. Thank you!

Hack Hack Hack
Yes, it's coughing time again! For those of you who know me, that's about half of the year. ;D I'm in the dry hack stage now, so I'm once again chain-sucking on cough drops. Does anyone know if that Zicam stuff really works?
On the up side, I'm about 5 days into my 2 or so week break. It's been really nice. I got to go home for a couple of days, which was GREAT! I love being able to hug Mommy good night, there's something special about it. Catherine was really excited to have me there, and liked to lay on my lap. Unfortunately, that means she has developed a cold, too. Sorry, Baby!
G-ma, G-pa, Andrew and I went up to SLC for the day yesterday. We rode the express bus there, and I found out my bus pass gets me on without even having to pay any extra! Woohoo! However, bus pass prices are increasing this Fall, so I won't be able to afford one any more (bummer). Anyway, we went around to a bunch of sites, and ate lunch at the Lion House (yum)!

Today, I'm going to go to my BFF's house for a sleepover. I'm bringing many, many cough drops so hopefully it won't be too bad for her. We're going to tie dye stuff...if I can find anything to tie dye. I don't have many things for that. ;D Anyway, it's going to be fun!
Oh! In other fun news...Janette passed her roading test for her driver's licence! I can't believe she's a legal driver already...she seems waaay too young. Or maybe I'm way too old. XD Either way, she was really worried about this so I'm very glad she did well. I kept telling her she would, but you know her! Runs in the family, I guess.

C'est La Vie!
I've been memorizing this Japanese song called "C'est la vie" for...oh, about 24 hours now. So far I have 1 1/2 verses down, and one verson of the chorus. But I can't get it out of my head! And when I start thinking the melody, I start trying to think of the words...it's driving me BONKERS! I can't concentrate on much of anything for any period of time.
The problem is, I really want to memorize this song, I love it! So I'm going to keep torturing myself because I don't want to forget what I've already memorized...wow.
Anyway, only about 5 more days of school. Isn't that crazy? I'm really nervous about my cohort coming up in Fall. I'm way out in the Jordan school district. So that means during my cohort I'll be getting up at 6, staying at the school until 4, then driving like mad to get to work at 5, work from 5-8, then go home and do homework. I'm really scared! I've never planned lessons or taught much...I sure hope they teach you how to do that before they just throw you in with 15-20-30 school children.
I'm really looking forward to this 2-week break coming up. As long as I don't have this song stuck in my head!
Atsui kimici wa C'est la vie
Watashi ga watashi de iru kagiri.
C'est la vie! Antata o aisituduketai....
