The past few days have been full of stress and headaches.  First on Saturday, I was doing an errand in downtown.  I was thinking about getting a library card for the town library, because they may have some books that the school library doesn't.  Well, when I got there and was getting ready to lock up my bike, I found that my keys were gone!  I put ( Read more... )

Sorry it's been a while since I last posted.  Just so many things were going on.

I learned at the beginning of last week what I'm going to be doing for my assistantship.  I have been been appointed as a fellow, which means I will be tutoring outside the Writing Center in a class of another discipline.  Get this--it's Physical Science.  I'm going to ( Read more... )

I don't really know why (maybe because I've been contributing more to the site than usual), but I've been kinda playing around with some of the features on fanfiction.net that I never paid attention to before.  I subscribed to a number of C2s and forums.  I put up two forums, both trying to analyze some of my favorite RPGs sorta scholastically, and ( Read more... )

So, this weekend I went home.  I had a meeting with my Voc Rehab counselor.  Basically, the whole time, I was trying to tell them where I stood and what my plans, and the whole time they kept interrupting me saying, "Yeah, but are you employed?"  They were basically anxious to close my case.  I was trying so hard to tell them, "I know it's ( Read more... )

Well, I didn't think today was going to be all that great.  I was away from my family, so that meant no real party or presents yet.  And I had class.  I was looking forward to Church, though, because I asked a lot of my Church friends if we could hang out afterwards.  But today was actually very, very good.  I got tons of birthday wishes on my ( Read more... )

First off, there was a great sermon this morning at church.  One of the neat things about this congregation is they put their sermons online.  I know some of you are agnostic, but you might want to give this a listen.  Just hear it out.  The only problem is it was rather heavy in visual, which unfortunately, you can't get online . . . yet.  Hope ( Read more... )

Well, I think tonight's episode was very nice.  I like Dr. Bell.  I think he's going to be great.  It's awesome that he taught at Stanford; I was born at Stanford!  I really miss that big fountain he had outside his office, though.  I really liked it.  The mystery was pretty good, though I kinda wondered how Monk could afford a house.  My parents ( Read more... )

Well, this week has certainly been full.  The pedagogy class on teaching grammar has been interesting.  This week, we've been studying about the history of English and grammar.  It's actually been very surprising.  I learned a lot of stuff I didn't know.  Like, did you know Shakespeare wrote a Latin grammar book?  It's true!  And back in ancient ( Read more... )

This was kinda my last week of "vacation."  Yeah, I know I've been at work, but on Monday I start my summer pedagogy class.  It can go pretty rough.  I'm pretty much in class every day of the week for about three hours every day, and some of those days I'll have to go to work immediately after.  And it's with my old thesis director, with whom I had ( Read more... )
