St George Weekend!

Went to St. George this weekend with the Fam!
What a fun and much needed vacation
Unfortunately, the battery charger to my camera is still MIA so I just have a few pics from my Mom's camera...
but it was definitely fun!
Lots of food, games, swimming, shopping, and FUN.

And there may possibly have been some late night adventures at Taco Bell in Cowboy Hats.. Just maybe...

Awesome About Today

Today has been awesome.

1. In my TMA 352 class, we put on a little play that I was the director of and my Sister in Law and niece came down and saw it. Tacky the Penguin

2. The homework in Math class today was participation only. 100%? Yes please.

3. I actually had a lot of fun doing interviews at work (interviewing students about their projects). The students are so great, creative and they did some really awesome projects that were really inspiring!

4. Got to go get Immunizations for Uganda today! Super excited :) 

5. Watched a Mission Call Opening of a girl who lives upstairs Always fun :)

6. We are now watching Despicable Me. So funny

What a great day! Life is so good.

Any Thoughts?....

Most of my professors are awesome. One however, struggles a little bit.

First, he was not supposed to teach our class. He kinda got roped into it. We'll cut him some slack for that.
Second of all, he is completely monotone. And he likes to pronounce Monday as Mondeee and Tuesday and Tuesdee and so on. Normally, this probably wouldn't bug me. But it is a Foundations of Literacy class. So we should be pronouncing words correctly.

He does an I Clicker Quiz to entice *eh hem force us to come to class on time. He does one right at the beginning of class so if your one minute late you don't get credit (this is at 9AM mind you), in the middle of class, and the end of class. Paranoid much? Oh. And if you miss more than one day, you drop a letter grade. (is that even legal?!?)

These kind of things create enemies. Even among the most loving, tender hearted Elementary Education girls. (oh and two boys)

But the worst of all is this: during his dry, monotonous lectures that put us into comas, after every slide he asks "Any Thoughts?"

                          *****************Insert Long Awkward Silence***********************

Nobody ever has thoughts. Then he'll say "I'm modeling wait time." Wait more, and then move on.
Bless his little heart.
