It's been awhile...

Hey, isn't that the beginning of a song??? I think Uncle Cracker maybe??

Anyhow, it really has been a bit since I took the time to check in. School is just starting and already I feel as though I am drowning in homework and stupidity. I have several fellow students in my classes who feel that they must be THAT one. You know who I'm talking about, hopefully you are not one of THOSE.

Those people who must ALWAYS be right.

THOSE people who feel THEIR opinion must be respected, but refuse to give respect in return.

THOSE people for whom the entire class should resolve around. You know, the type who can ASK all the time-sucking questions that are completely unrelated to the lesson, but do the loud sighs and gripe should someone else have an ON TOPIC comment or question.

THOSE people who think every study session is all about THEM and that only THEIR time is valuable.

It's going to be a long semester.

Zeitgeist and the month of December…

makes I am planning to blog through the month of December, you know one of those blog everyday kind of clubs.  I like the idea of them a lot – though I’m not promising anything spectacular, because I tend to get sidetracked a lot, but I am planning to blog at least a little.

I suppose if I actually made it all the way through I’d feel pretty awesome but it’s all good. Actually, what most excited me about this blog all the month thing was the theme – Zeitgeist – isn’t that just one of the coolest words ever? It just sounds cool.  I am thinking of adopting it as my theme for 2011 – I’m not joking, I like it that much. In case you don’t know (or haven’t googled a defintion yet) here’s an overview of the meaning from wikipedia : is "the spirit of the times" or "the spirit of the age." Zeitgeist is the ge...

Maybe you've been wondering...

Where I've been... well, nowhere really. I have been trying to stay off the computer and get some studying done. Obviously this is not working very well since here I am, but it is an effort. This new test I am studying for to determine whether I'm cool enough to enter the Education program at Western Washington University is scaring the pants off me. I really wish they would accept my already passing Praxis scores as I have already gone through all the freaking out, stressing out, studying and lack of sleep for that test. I don't test very well. I really never have. I am full of that panicky test anxiety right up until the professor, etc says go, and then I calm down and keep telling myself, you know this or you don't... just breathe goober. I am almost always convinced that I'm going to fail, and fail badly and I can't remember actually ever failing, but it could still happen. So, now I stay up late (because that's the only time it's quiet here) a...
