go geography

hey all,

i went to the coffee shop yesterday, and started grading papers. long story short, my geography students need more practice with maps. also, i ran into one of my old geography professors at the coffee shop, and he was working on some research (you know, that's what they have to do). anyway, we talked for a while about geography,the snow pack, and teaching. it was good, it made me miss being in geography classes having similar discussions with other geographers. so if you are interested in geography, find me so we can talk about it.

good news, bad news game

good news: i spent money on scrapbook supplies and they are so good
bad news: i am not motivated to do homework because of it

the one with the crazy week

hi friends,

a small update for you. this week has been one of the most exhausting in all my teaching career. one of the seniors at chs passed away last saturday, so our school hasn't been normal this week. pray for his host family and his family in s. korea as they take him home. thank you to those who were an encouragement to me this week, i needed it.

i am glad it is saturday, i was able to sleep in. anyway, i am doing great and i am ready for a new week next week. i begin student teaching next week with a meeting with the education professor who will be observing me. pray that all goes well so i can finally get my teaching certificate and be done with school.

i have made a new commitment to really strive to be the best follower of God i can be. i want to desire to read and pray above anything else i have to do, i want to be an encouragement to others and not put people down. i want to do these things, but i need your prayers and encouragement. i would also like to deepen my friendships as well, but that seems so hard when i am so busy with work and school and life. anyway, i am trying, but it will take some doin'
