Witness the dawn...

I bought two new pairs of shoes today...one pair for myself and one pair for halloween costume.

Tips and Abstractidies

My presentation roq'd! By far it was very good and the opener got lots of comments. Though Kira was running slower today than normal. On a side note I went to sit down at the keyboard, noyt knowing that my CT had moved the bench, and I fell pretty hard to the ground. So I was in pain for most of the day....then came home after the presentations...spoke to the insurance epopel about getting my new stereo, Yay! except for the deductable....oh well, still a good deal.

I have tons of stuff to do tomorrow, including looking for a new wig, hoping that my applecare will replace my power adapter, get cat food, go to the bank, do a thingie at the school and then get ready for the party on saturday. Meagan, you should go! Oh and my CT gave me her son's definition of 'Molto', big bunches of much. Very clever IMHO. Well I was on my friends livejournal cause I didn't see her today at the conference I was presenting at, apparently she is ill, and I hope she gets better. She took some of them there online tests and I took some of them too...

It has been determined that I am...


You are a MASTERMIND BADASS!

You are resourceful and talented. You get your job
done completely and quickly, with a
silky-smoothness that benefits whatever side
you choose to be on. Your overseers appreciate
the great advantages you bring to their
organization and they probably like you (unless
you don't want them to), and they will continue
to do so until you've stolen their seats of
power out from under them.

The ULTIMATE personality test
brought to you by Quizilla

I love online tests, my most recent IQ is 140, I guess that is average for people like me. Today at the exceptioanl learner conference I discovered I might be an obsessive compulsive, mentally retarded, talented and Gifted Student with ADD and Asberger's syndrome...go figure.

Krazy Kinkos

Okay, I had to make like 80 brochures for a presentation on mental retardation for one of my grad school classes. My partner and I worked on getting everything ready and we had fun talking about random things as well. Anyhow, I get the brochure done and find out no computer in the house has ink, so I go to kinkos to get it printed and copied. First, I had to buy a card with time on it to use the computers. I put the file onto Fiona (my thumbdrive) and proceeded to open the file on the computer at kinkos. The computer burped and I was unable to comply. Then I went to another computer and it was fried...I had the techie guys there all confused and they were off in la la land talking about oddball stuff. So I found out I could just hook up my lap top and print...So I did.

They did only charge me for 3 minutes on the PC and then I made like 85 copies of the tri-fold brochure. Now I just have to finish the powerpoint and I am ready to roll. Apparently the Boston Red Socks or something won the world cup or bowl or something tonight after winning like a buncha games, and they haven't won it in like 90 years. I am curious why they call it a world anything if only our country participates. Just like Miss Universe...I don't see contestants from other galaxies and planets competing, just our planet. So Perhaps Miss Earth is appropriate in that sense.

Well, only two more full moons until Christmas. Well, technically one...then we have Christmas and the day after we have a full moon and I have an odd feeling about it. I still haven't heard back from the video store where I applied...I need a job...and I need it fairly soon.

I do get to go on a trip with my CT and some students next weekend to San Fran and this saturday I am going to a costume party. I am going to revise and re-vamp my Big and Beautiful Barbie costume from a few years ago. Mom thinks I should look for a new wig, but I think it's fine.

I love my new phone (Nehalennia).

Massivication

I cried friday as I felt that I was useless and exremely stupid. When my car Zach (see earlier post) was broken into and the stereo was stolen, I was sad, but then I felt helpless and less secure when the DMV wouldn't give me a new license. So when I finally did get it after finding the old license I thought I had lost, I was rather perterbed. While having lunch with Tom and Sonya the police called and told said that they had found three of the cards from my wallet that was also taken. My Student Body card, my bank number card and last but not least, my safeway club card...thank goodness for that 3 cent discount on gas...phew!!!

Boy that was odd...I guess this program is just very stressful. I hadn'r broken down in a long time. I do enjoy teaching, and I feel that I will succeed, however I also feel that I have a lot to learn. It was an awesome show that I saw (hugs to Meagan and a shout out to Erin). Sure there were some things here and there, in this musical. I have always loved the music, and I know that it has many operatic elements but I hesitate to call it an Opera. Another comment to Meagan, I wasn't aware that there was a lot of french music in it, to me it sounded decidedly american musical theatre-ish. (I think it was BAT (brianalecthom) tee hee, his initials are BAT, well he is batty, it was he who said french music in your post). I do sympathize with you and your having to work with certain other people.

I miss performing.
I miss late nights at Shari's.
I miss singing.
I miss a lot of things.

I am a busy person and I have an academic career ahead of me. I felt good about my 4.0 and this term so far so good, but grad school is 63% harder than real life. Between the student teaching, classes, and homework there is no time. Yet I need to find a part time job, so I applied at a local video store. I haven't heard back as of yet but i hope I get it. I need a way to be able to buy ink and stuff for school.

Frankly I don't know what the future holds entirely. I know that if I stay on this track I will have the tools for a new and exciting career next year. Now whether I will fall in love with elementary music next term or try and pursue and middle school or high school choir job is unclear. I am excited, scared and nervous about what next year brings, but realizing that a year ago I was wondering where I would be at this moment, I can possibly look forward to my own keys, my own room and my own students. If I have to leave the valley for strange new worlds, I know that I will always have friends here. I do look forward to auditioning for shows again, and seeing what lies ahead.

o/~ So many men seemed destined, to settle for something small, but I won't rest until I know I have it all...So don't ask where I'm going, just listen when I'm gone, and far away you'll hear me singing softly to the dawn...o/~
