El Ed Majors

Some things I've learned about El Ed Majors:
--They are permanently behind
--They love it when you put stickers on their midterms...and if those stickers happen to be scratch-n-sniff...there goes the evening!
--They walk around using words like "positive reinforcement"
--They're classes are the ones where grades truly don't really matter
--If there is a 3 hour class, there will always be treats
--Markers, crayons and scissors are required class material (bonus for smelly markers or crayons)
--No matter what it is, if it smells like lemon, grape, cherry, etc. it is that much better
--They're the only ones who get up for class at 6 and try to put it in a good light

Busy, busy, BUSY!

This is the first time I really am looking forward to the weekend simply because it gives me more time to do homework. And I don't actually get that much time, because I work on Saturday! I feel like there is NO way I am ever going to keep abreast of everything, much less ahead.

I am hungry. I really need to remember to bring food to class these days, because I'm in class over meals.

Do I like Ike?

6 am: *yawn* I've been up since 3 this morning...tracking hurricane Ike. Daniel and Wendy are living in Houston now, and we're all praying for their and little Spencer's safety. We're a little worried, because we're hearing reports of fire and tornados as well as flooding and such.

Today is Janette's Homecoming dance, and she is very excited. We're all excited for her, too. Later today I'll probably be going with her when she gets her hair done. I hope I'm not too tired for that.

As well as tracking Ike, to keep myself occupied, I've been doing homework for my "Blended" classes (part online, part in class). It's ridiculous how much they expect you to get done in such a short time. For example, in my multicultural class they want me to get about 10 assignments done in one day, in and around work and things, and the gabmail they want us to use isn't even working, and their emails are wrong...Really silly.

Update: We just got a text from Daniel saying they are okay but power is out.
