Oh the joys of the blog. I love this thing, I don't care how much crap it takes. :] I like being able to share whatever comes into my head at any given time throughout the day. :] Speaking of that, today I did something I thought was very smart. I created a "BLOGWORTHY" list on a index card. :] All day long, I have been writing things down I didn't want to leave behind for only me to remember. So let's get started. Today was reallllly long. As I have already established T/TH classes are really long. But they are slowly starting to grow on me. I reallly like my institute class, and love that I get to share it with April and Tori. That Human Development class is also beginning to creep off my hate list. I really enjoy the professor, she cares A LOT about students, and our success. It's really great. So I'm hopefully going to suceed in that class. :] I'm becoming very positive about the semester as a whole. It's a lot of work, but I'm kind of excited about it. I got to visit the Elementary school on campus today with my ELED class. It's so cool!! I'm soo excited. I was so nervous, but now I'm actually getting really excited about becoming a teacher. Especially from USU. It is in the top 50 colleges of education in the entire country. So, this is pretty legit, seeing as there are over 1200. The DeafEd program is also among the top, so that's just the double whammy. I realized today that this is hopefully a good decision. I feel like I'm in the right place for it (obviously) and although it's going to be a challenge, seeing as young children are GERM INFESTED, I feel good about it, and like it's something I'm going to be able to do. :] I don't think the science career was right. I mean, there are few women in the field. The demand is far lower than teacher's, and although the pay is better, the negatives out weigh. I'm not a fan of the lack of religion within the scientific career field either. Scientists aren't exactly known for their devotion to Church. They are Scientists...........pretty obvious. Leaving the Elementary school today I saw my very favorite person (okay not my very favorite, but for the point of this story, he has to be very important) but it was the bicycle guy! I see him all the time on campus, and I'm sure I have mentioned him a few times in posts of the past. But he was reading while riding down 700 N. It was amazing. :] He never is riding the bike like a normal person would, but with skills that some people only can dream of possessing. His persistance in bike-trickery (even when temperatures here are well below comfortable) impresses me. :] I am fascinated by all the people I see on Campus. I know it's so creepy, but I love to watch them. :] As I walk from class to class, I make up stories about the people that surround me. The girl that sits next to me in class could be a struggling mom, who went back to school to fulfill the dreams she had before the family. The next time, her story might change slightly, by something new I happen to notice. The lack of a ring. A picture on her desktop. It's my way of revisiting a childhood imagination that I never could control. :] My newest interest is a woman in mine and Tori's Human Development class. She is an older woman, obviously farther into her life than mine. She is also slightly larger, and doesn't look like she frequently shops at Nordstroms. There is something I find so intriguing about her however. She always carries a backpack, a pink one, and a large jean "mom" bag. She always with out fail, comments on things in class, and although they are extremely simple comments, I love when she does. She is crazy polite to everyone. I can see how everyone looks at her. Judgemental. And downward. It's annoying to me. Her name is Debra. I'm determined to add to her story. After school today, I spent some more time in the Library. I'm getting a lot done before the weekend however, cuz I hate when I have homework when I go home. It's just really not fun. :/ I had to rush to a DESA meeting tonight as well. And that was good. I'm really good at receptive. I know what everyone is saying. What makes me nervous, is responding. I always do good. And they don't look at me with dazed expressions, but still, I'm so scared. Hopefully it will get better the more exposure as the semester goes on, and I get back into the swing of things. I found out tonight however, that next year, I'm in line for President/VP of the DESA club. I'm terrified. Haha I don't know what to do! We will see. :] I ate in the Marketplace all by myself tongiht. It was actually kind of nice. I don't want to do it all the time, but I love when I get nights like this. I came home, after my lovely meal in solitutde, and found myself home alone. :] I changed into sweats, got a blanket and cuddled up on the couch. :] I was exploring on my computer, trying to do some not so important class things, and Troy called. :] We talked for a really long time, and I'm confident that it was the longest phone conversation I have ever been able to hold in my entire life. Kudos. I'm so very glad I get to go home tomorrow. :] Not to be too cheesy, but it's been harder than I imagined it to be. :/ He told me the funniest story about meeting an apostle however. :] Haha they met at a urinal, at a Bee's baseball game. :] Best apostle meeting story EVER. It's awesome. I'm turning in early tonight, as soon as me and April finish the lovely Disney movie we are watching. :] Oh Selena Gomez.
