My Senior Year

Happy New Year!

"You crown the year with your bounty, and your carts overflow with abundance." -Psalm 65:11

Happy New Year! Typically New Years does not rank too high on my list of top holidays, but I can't help but to be excited for all of the things that God has in store for 2011. This is the year that I graduate from college, start having old person birthdays (21 was the cut off), find a real job (maybe? hopefully?!?!), and who knows what else! I'm excited to see what this year holds.

Speaking of new things, tomorrow is my first day as a student teacher!!! And in honor of that, here are a few quotes about education:

"The whole purpose of education is to turn mirrors into windows" -Sydney Harris

"To the uneducated, an A is just three sticks" -A.A. Milne (the guy who wrote Winnie the Pooh)

"Education is not filling a pail, but the lighting of a fire" -William Butler Yeats


Say a prayer that this goes well! I have my teacher clothes laid out and my lunchbox ready. Although I'm definitely going to miss the days of waking up at 8 or 9, watching Regis and Kelly, and spending the afternoons lying around and watching tv, I'm excited to spend my days with third graders! I'm also really ready for my roommates to come back because PC is empty right now. As I drove back up here today, I realized that this is the LAST time I'm starting a new semester of college! Crazy...

Also, I'm watching Bridal plasty right now, this new reality show on E!, and it is super weird. It seems to be a competition between brides who compete in challenges (such as eating gross food... I'd lose) to win plastic surgery for their weddings. Too much.

Ok well, happy 2011! Sorry in advance if student teaching hinders my blogging!
