Get your feet wet!

As much as I love wearing flip flops... today is NOT the day! it has been pouring now for a couple hours straight. And EVERY where is flooded. even steps... Just walking from one building to another, my feet, flip flops, and pants are soaked!
I am sure all the new blooming flowers are happy to get a drink... but it is wild out!
It is nice being all done with my field observation hours... Do not have to worry about them anymore, and now I can stay here on the weekends more!
I work in the admissions office, and every couple Saturday's there are events such as Open House's and Accepted student days that we can work at. They are a lot of fun, you meet so many new people. All of the incoming freshmen and their families are so nice and friendly! They love getting help and tours from the students at Caldwell. So, there is one this Saturday that I am very excited I can work at because I will not be home for once! Hope the weather is nicer than today!!!

Easter is almost here!

This week is going to fly by! Only three days of classes, and I do not have my two evening classes wednesday! Yippee =)
Easter break will be very nice! Every year we usually go to my shore house in Seaside Park with family for easter, but this year we are going to spend it with my dads side of the family. Something new... I hope we still get to color eggs! 
It is currently pouring rain and thundering and lightening outside. Yikes, I am scared. Five or so years ago my house was actually hit by lightening! It was horrible! The scariest thing ever, it sounded like a plane hit into my house! It was so loud. My dad has a police scanner in his room, and it requires a huge satellite antenna thing on my roof, and that is what the lightening hit... it traveled down the antenna, all the way down the wire and into my parents room where the scanner radio was... then caught the curtains on fire! You could see a black line going down the wall of where the wire burnt through the wall. It was very scary... I pray that does not happen again!
I might say this in every blog, but....I WANT BEACH WEATHER!!

WebQuest!

I am almost done with my webquest! I think the only step that I need to do now is publish it! =)

Rain Rain. Go away. FOREVER

This weather just puts a damper on my mood! Where are you sun!?!?
This morning at 10 a.m., I presented my lesson plan in my other education class! It is something I have been planning and thinking about for so long. And today was the day. I dressed all fancy like a teacher, and took it away! Half hour was the requirement. I think I did just fine! I wasnt that nervous at all. Just ancy to get it started. Once I was up there though in front of the class, I was fine. =) So relieved it is over with.
Tomorrow morning I am taking the huge social studies test that every education major has to pass before student teaching...UGH. I purposely did not choose history or social studies as my second major for a reason! I am horrible at it! So all tonight me and my roomie will be in the library studying. I am keeping my fingers crossed that I pass, so I do not have to worry about taking it again.
Pray for me!!!

Hallelujah

My brother got a job! Finally!! I know my parents are thanking god! Finally he got a job in his career track, and what he went to school for! My brother is not the best influence on others... He has had a rough and rocky past, of getting in trouble with the cops... ALOT. So, to make a very long 4 years short. He had SO many points on his license... So he unfortunately could not get a job in automotive, which is what he went to school for. Now, a few years later, the points are beginning to clear off of his license. So he went for an interview and got a job as a mechanic at a Toyoto Dealer!! He is very excited yet nervous, and my parents are SOOOO incredibly happy that he finally got a good job in his career path, with benefits and that pays very well. I am proud of him too. Today was his first day, I will have to call him tonight to see how he did!
I can  not wait for school to be over for summer break! Have a nice stress free summer with all my friends and family! =) Bring on the beach!!!!!

Web Quest

I still have to work on my web quest some more, and learn more about the website in general. Right now I only have a very rough draft of the main idea that I want to do for my online lesson plan. Now I have to add more details, and work on it being more fun. Also, I need to work on forming a rubric like the examples they have on the website.
 I have never heard of web quests before this class, but it is definitely something that I would consider and enjoy using when I become a teacher in the future. Instead of traditional lesson plans and homework assignments, I feel students would really have fun doing projects online. This incorporates technology into learning, and is a different and exciting approach for them.

=)

What a wonderful weekend! Relaxing and the weather actually turned out to be beautiful most of the time!
I did not get any HW done however, so today when I got back to school, I was really busy and tried to get a lot of assignments done. 
As if I do not have enough stress every other day being in school... now that scheduling is out for next year, I am even more stressed and worried. I don't know why but registration always stresses me out. Its just something else to think about and worry about. 
I hope that everything goes smoothly, and I get into all the classes I need and want.
