I am supposed to start student teaching in the fall. It has been a hell of a time to actually find a school that wants me. Local Town is full in both highschool and middle school. Not-so Local Town is full. All because of local-ish university and all of their students that was also doing student teaching this fall. Most places are not saying no, but they definatly arn’t saying yes. Today i got a letter, bcced to me, from the Placement Specialist excited about speaking with a school district next week who actually says they want to place me. YAY!.
It will only be a 35 min drive from new appartment. So that wouldn’t be out of the ordanary. I will just be happy to be able to finish school and get this over with.

This weekend was shopping for trailmix/gorp indgrediants and granola bar making.

Saturday was Hiking and then Erin’s. We hiked 6 miles Saturday morning. 4 up and down an mountain, 2 up and down a waterfall. The mountain was nice peaceful and quiet except for one group of loud people. I hate loud people. The waterfall was hell. People everywhere. I hate people in general. The paths for both of these, for the most part, were single person wide. We had to stop alot and let people pass. We had to stop alot for people letting there two year old walk up the stairs to the waterfall on their own instead of carrying them. We had to stop for people who were two old to be climbing up the quarter mile of stairs. The waterfall would have been 1000000000% times better if there were not so many freaking people.

Drinking at Erin’s after. We didnt get home until 3:30am. Slept in. Did homework. the other J cleaned the house. We fed Cedrick and then went to bed. Exhausted.

Today: work no so bad, mostly annoying. Now I’m sitting in theotherJ’s office at work. Late nights are part of the deal when dating an IT guy. It was very common at his old job, this one not so much. I try not to get cranky over it since they are few and far between.

Oh… another note. Next week my schedule changes. Working Sun-Thursday. 10 – 7 sundays and 8-5 durring the week. Not looking forward to this.

Yay pictures of happy weekend.
