by Corie March 13, 2013

As advising week approaches, its crazy to think that next semester I am going into my senior year. Wow has time flown. I feel like I didn’t graduate from high school that long ago.

Dress codes are not my thing

by Carlyn March 11, 2013

I work at Gordman’s, and the company recently implemented a new dress code. This was announced about a month ago, so everyone else has already been following it. But today was the actual starting day for the new code to be implemented; therefore today I had to start following it with my fellow employees. The [...]

Stuck!

by Lizzie March 11, 2013

I am mentally stuck between my own personal goals and my family’s goals. To be more specific, I meant I don’t know how to solve my problem between going to school and planning to become an art teacher or taking over my mom’s nail salon. For the past five years, I’ve been helping my mom [...]

Who doesn’t love a field trip?

by Carlyn March 5, 2013

Remember when you were in elementary school and how excited you would get when going on field trips? The whole class would count down the days in anticipation of getting out of the classroom for one day. Well, I experienced all these good childhood feelings again when I went on a class trip this morning. [...]

When I was younger..

by Corie March 5, 2013

This is now really embarrassing. When I was younger, for some reason my dream job was to work at Taco Bell. I am blaming my father on this one. Since my parents are separated I would go see my dad every other weekend. Yes, we would always go to Taco Bell. Of course it did [...]

Your Choice Was Right.

by Carly February 22, 2013

Last week on my blog, I made a rather bold statement. Okay, I probably made several, but this one keeps coming back to me: “…I know now that I definitely don’t like biochemistry enough to be a biochemist (organic chem. is way better…). I thought I would enjoy learning about the chemistry of life, but [...]

A Thousand Different Versions of Yourself

by Carly February 12, 2013

Let’s talk about catalysis, shall we? And, before you stop reading, I’m not eluding back to the biochemistry chapter I’ve spent the past five or six hours reading and taking notes over titled “Properties of Enzymes” (because as you and I are well aware of, the most important characteristics of these little guys is that [...]

Found my niche?

by Carlyn February 12, 2013

This past weekend was fairly simple. I worked, babysat, and did homework. I also went shopping for a little bit at The Children’s Place, which was the most significant part of my weekend (well, except for watching Justin Bieber perform on Saturday Night Live). You can laugh, but I still purchase some of my clothes [...]

Preparing is the Name of the Game

by Ann February 11, 2013

Our prompt for this week is what class has been most important to you in your school career.  While it is not your typical class per se, hands down for me it is student teaching. I am currently doing my student teaching.  Last semester in Jane Wolff’s Instructional Process, she would repeat week after week [...]
