starlight, boughs bright.

Hello, last week of school! I woke up this morning and was excited at this thought...and Christmas is on it's way :) I can't believe tomorrow is December 1st already?! My last week is not as stressful as I had anticipated. On the weekend, Tiff, Amy, and I got our Story Drama done, and have our unit plan for LA just about finished ... we are having a group edit process today before class, and then we can print stuff tonight and hand it in tomorrow. So, for the rest of the week: on Wednesday, finishing up my PE video by doing the audio ... and then Friday: exam for drama, and performing our live radio show for our LA class.

Can't wait for Friday afternoon to arrive, and head off to Vancouver avec mon frere!

Last night, Dale and I saw Blind Side ... I enjoyed everyone second of it. It was absolutely amazing, and definitely my new favorite movie. Yesterday, just opened at closed at worky, and Saturday had a lazy day writing up lesson plans, and then hit up the gym in the evening, and dinner with Chels, Jord, & Dale.

Just watching Sex & the City now ... and super excited to hear more about the second movie!

Stay warm,

xx

The week is ending. One more week of school, tomorrow :) I've had a good week. Just a busy bee with school, homework, the gym, and trying to find some downtime for myself. I had a presentation today for my Media Literacy lesson, and I think it went well. I am just glad to have another thing to check off as complete! Oh! And my No, David! Sign language lesson plan was a success. I was super proud of myself about that! I worked really hard on that lesson, and so I'm glad it paid off. Gosh. I am getting more and more excited for school to be over, and so looking forward to going home for Christmas. I feel like I haven't been home in so long ... it will have been nearly six months! Jeeze. Anyways, I am going to go cook up some supper now! Hope you all are enjoying your evenings. I am warming up by the fire.

Oh, and I am in love with Taylor Lautner (like that's a huge surprise, or anything).

Merry Christmas! Love, Taylor & Dale

can we just say the rest with no sound?

Again...another whirlwind of a weekend. Yesterday was wonderful and lazy. Dale and I slept pretty late, and had a slow morning. I hit up the gym (yay, new cardio!!), and then we got Subway for lunch and watched Family Guy. Headed to Safeway next, and Dale helped me pick out some floor polish for my floor, so I went home and vacuumed, swiffered, and then mopped my floors with the polish. Then, had a shower, made a quick dinner, and Chels came over. We did some laundry, and watched My Sister's Keeper (my second time). Today: worked open til close, and then tonight Amy and Tiff came over for a bit, and we worked on finishing up our website, and started our eBinder (collections and collections of worksheets, lesson plans, resources, templates for sticking on a usb to take to schools for teaching...it's all done on word).

Tomorrow: meeting for a group project in the a.m., and then computer class at 1:00. Hoping to hit up the gym after class.

Hope you had wonderful weekends.

xxxooo

i think you'd be good to me, and i'd be so good to you.

When your heart wears thin, I will hold you up, and I will hide you when it gets too much.

I'll be right beside you, nobody will break you.

the envelope please...

New Moon was wonderful, and I want to see it again. For those of you who are not twi-hards: get on that. Read the books, and see the movies. I guarantee it'll be worth it. LOVE. So, the wait outside wasn't too bad last night, and they let us in around 9:00, so James, Carli, and I just hung out and caught up. It was a good time. Today I was at the school from about 8:30-4:30. Another long day! But, getting things under control for the end of semester. TWO WEEKS: and actually only 8 days of classes :) I cannot wait.

What are you all up to this weekend? I'm at Dale's, and we had ichiban for dinner and watched the office and say yes to the dress. Now, he is out playing hockey, and I'm catching up on my Thursday night t.v. shows. Tomorrow: the gym, and some relaxing time! I don't have to work and it turns out I don't have too much homework this weekend until Sunday night.

Happy Friday!

ps. here is a practice clip of our ancient babylonia video...our scarves are to set a little mood, little gypsy ladies. I have more videos if you think this is funny. haha.

final countdown

On my way to New Moon....blog you later

...too excited!

Just spent a boatload on groceries, but now am home (oh my gosh, that wind!), and my cupboards are full, and I'm eating my first mandarin (christmas) orange of the season: yum. Went to see Romeo & Juliet last night. It was a fun experience: and I was sort of able to follow along...it was a bit modernized, but still very shakespearean. Anyways, it ended super late (11:07 p.m. so just over 3 hours in length), and I went home to bed. Chels made me an energy bar (like hot shots), and it was delish :) I'm going to have to make some of my own!

I didn't have school today: I woke up, rode my bike to the gym for the rebounder class, and then biked home. I've been working on homework since. I had to finish up my PE analysis assignment ...and that took a long time to format, and it's still not nearly done! Then, I skyped my mom, and she gave me a great idea for my LA lesson plan quiz. We had to draw a book yesterday, and then make up a lesson for it, and hand it in Friday. Since my idea is a bit complicated, and takes a lot of prep, it is going to take me awhile to get it finished. I am thinking I'll hit up the school early tomorrow to work on the list of signs the teacher will need (oh, did I mention I am making a lesson plan with sign language involved! Eeps). I think I am maybe taking on too much work for the time frame! Bah, we'll see how it goes tomorrow morning.

have a good night!
