Hi Yall!!
Today has been an interesting day. I had to run to catch the CAT bus this morning. I laughed the whole time. LoL!! When I got to class I knew it was going to be a rough 3 hours. My instructor came in all happy and I was like oh no, not a good sign. Thankfully I had cut a large piece of paper into 4 little sheets so i could draw and have enough paper without having to get up and get more. LoL!! One of the ladies in my class handed a notebook with 6 or 7 math problems on them; it was her son's work and she didn't know how to do it. So, while the instructor was giving her detailed lecture, I either colored for a few minutes or I did math problems. I left class after a couple of hours and got home in time to have some lunch and to get ready for the tonight's class. Speaking of tonight's class, it wasn't as bad as last week. LoL!! It was actually fun!! I've got to find some articles to review for tomorrow's class.

Sunday and Monday
Hi Yall!!
Sunday was a tiring day. After a full week of school plus that snow tubing rip off trip, I was exhausted. Me and Erica went on our walk again. I think by summer time we'll be skinny again. LoL!! We do the powerwalk deal. LoL!! It's fun and we get to catch up on each other's lives. Oh, my wonderful cousin Seth came to Granny's yesterday!! I was soo happy to see him!! I love him alot. His mom's mom aka Memaw isn't doing too well. After church last night I called Nicole to talk to her for a few minutes and as usual got her voice mail. She called back but I ignored it. LoL!! We're so nice to each other. I ended up talking to her almost a hour. We bout fell asleep while we were talking. LoL!! She's calling me again tonight so I've got to get some rest before she does. LoL!!
Today has been great so far. During class this morning I mentioned to the class about a fear I had to overcome which happened to be driving. The thought of getting behind the wheel of a car was horrible enough. I told the class how my family encouraged me and helped me overcome my fear of driving. Now, I love to drive!! LoL!!
Well, I'm about to head home from school. It's been a great day so far!!
P.S.
GOD IS GREAT!!

Friday and Saturday
Hi Yall!!
These past 2 days have been busy. From my lab yesterday morning to singing at a coffee shop to snow tubing today-it's been very tiring.
Friday: I got up some time before 7 and got my things ready for my lab with my 3 year olds! We had a Valentine's Day party. I helped some of the children put their valentines in the other's valentine's boxes. It was soo sweet watching them matching up the names on the cards and boxes. Well, we all sat down for the big group time and who comes in...one of my instructors from Tech. She came to observe me during my lab time. Before she left, she told me that I did really well with my discipline stratagies and I had good eye contact with the children. She was surprised they took direction from me because I've only been there 3 times. My little kids love me especially the girls and most of the guys. LoL!! I have a little trouble with some of the guys but that is to be expected! I enjoyed the day with them!!
Well, after I got home I had to pack for the snow tubing trip to Scaly Mountain. My family and I were going to stay at my Granny and Papa's house because it's somewhat closer to GA. Anyways, before we could get to their house, we had an appointment to sing at a community "supper club" aka a bunch of elderly people who meet in a building to sing and eat. A girl from church came to help us out. Well, we were almost there when Daddy got a phone call from one of the bookstore owners he knows. The man wanted us to come sing at his coffee house that is connected to his bookstore. We went there after we sang at the "Supper Club." Let's just say it was a random but fun adventure oh and don't eat BK late at night unless you don't mind not feeling the best for the rest of the night or the next day.
Well, after we finshed our singing tour of the night, we dropped the girl from church off at her house and headed to Granny and Papa's house. They were glad to see us. Since I was tired thanks to my full day, I went to bed early but of course didn't or couldn't go to sleep. Papa and my 2 brothers started playing game after game of UNO. Papa of course beat the snot out of them because he's Papa!! LoL!! He's good at every game he plays because he's very competitive and smart!! LoL!! He also is mean. LoL!! He knows how to play rough and makes you feel stupid but it's fun and all we do is sit around and laugh. My Papa is awesome!! My Granny is too!! Anyways, since Papa gets rather loud while he plays any game, I didn't fall asleep until Granny came through the house telling them to get in the bed. It was after 1 AM. LoL!! We are the late nighters!! LoL!!
Saturday: We had to wake up early this morning. It was rough. Since some of the people from my church were going on the snow tubing trip, we all met at Granny and Papa's house at 7:45 and were to leave by 8. I got out of bed around 10 after 7, got dressed, brushed my teeth, and walked around with bedhead. LoL!! I poured me some of Granny's SWEET tea and that made the day tons better. Idk what I would do if I didn't have my Granny's awesome SWEET tea. LoL!! Anyways, we left the house and traveled to Scaly Mountain for snow tubing. It was fun except when the boys from church decided to take me down the hill with them. I held one of the guy's hand the times I went with them. LoL!! The last time I went down, the guy decided to let go and pushed me the rest of the way. I was going down that hill backwards and all the other guys did was laugh at me. My Mom got a picture of it. LoL!! After we left Scaly Mountain, we went to Shoney's for lunch. Since the restrooms were disgusting at the Scaley Mountain place, I changed my clothes on the way to Shoney's. It's amazing what you can do with 2 blankets, a built in DVD player, and 4 hanger hook things. LoL!! I had a little mobile dressing room. LoL!! After we ate at Shoney's, we went to Whistle Stop. I love that place. Me and 2 guys from church looked through the antique mall there. That was an interesting time. LoL!!
When we finally got home, I was sooo happy to be back!! I checked on the puppies and even got to really hold one. We have 4 boys and 2 girls. The runt is one of the girls. She's a tiny little puppy. The other ones are huge. LoL!! I held one of the huge ones!! I love those little puppies. They recognize my voice because I talk to them for awhile everyday. They are adorable!!
I'm so glad I'm home!!!

I'll post pictures from today later!!

Wednesday and Thursday
Hi Yall!!
I was soo tired yesterday and didn't get to blog. Anyways, yesterday was a great day. Well, it was until I got my first test from my 107 class. I screwed up the first page. Idk what I was thinking; It seems like I wasn't thinking at all. LoL!! I got a 82-not cool. The good part of class was the cutting and pasting time. LoL!! We made our own bingo cards for the sign language bingo game and then a study sheet for our 2nd test. LoL!! We had fun!!
Today was a fun day-I went to my 8-2 lab. The day went by fast. Caitlyn let it be known she hated Valentine's Day, love made her crazy and she didn't like that. LoL!! K'nydren asked if V-day was a love day. Both comments cracked me up. Then K'nydren asked me why I knew his name so good. I told him I had alot of practice...lol. At lunch, Chris pushed an apple slice on his teeth and smiled at me. I lost it; it was so funny. I went to my first teacher meeting today. Since I'm not one of the teachers, I didn't talk at all. LoL. The school I'm at is the top school as far as the kindergarten program. We're awesome!!! Oh, before lunch my instructor showed up to observe me. I didn't know she was there until we started cleaning the room up before we went to lunch. After she left, some of the other teachers were commenting on how nice Mrs. H. was towards us, them, and any of the children that came up to her. I'll have to tell her that tonight when I go to class. LoL!! I guess it will make her feel good!!
Tomorrow I'll be with my 3 year olds. Then I'll be home for a little while before we head up to a supper club singing thing then to Granny and Papa's!! We're going snow tubing saturday with people from the church and friends from GA. I'm excited. Well, I'm going to take a quick nap before I have to head to class.

Hi Yall!!
Boy, it's been a day. I had a confusing class this morning thanks to one of the ladies in my class. After my instructor would say something that would make some sense, that lady would some comments and totally confuse us. It was crazy. The people at my table was like come on lady shut up, you don't know what you are talking about. She got on our last nerves. She tried but it wasn't good enough. I was so confused whenever she would start talking.
Anyways, after class was over I talked to my instructor aka my advisor about my remaining classes. I have 7 classes left at Tech then I'm out of there. I'm so ready to leave. That place has really tired me out. I was so happy when she gave me the card that had those 7 classes on it. One of my friends let me know I could borrow one of her books for my MGT 120 class!! Even better!! Woohoo!!
Then, I got on the CAT bus for the ride home. Once again it was a really peaceful ride unlike the city bus. A crazy man got on the city bus and sat next to me and another lady. He talked to himself in different voices plus he laughed really creepy like. I called my Mom and asked her if I could get off at the mall because that man was creeping me out. We made a stop and several people got out so me and that lady moved to different seats; away from that weird man. I got off at the mall, looked in 2 stores, then Mama came and I got in her van. When I got home, I had a hour before I had to leave for my night class. I rode the CAT bus again and Ms. Marty was on there. She is my CAT bus buddy!! We've had some interesting talks.
Anyways, I got to class. We had a test tonight which I didn't study for but since I've taken like 100 ECD classes, it was like a review. LoL!! My friend Michelle showed up which really surprised me. Her BF made her move out after only a week since she moved in. He said some really bad stuff to her and she was majorly upset which I don't blame her. Anyways, my instructor gave us 3 options: watch the rest of the video and finish the discussion then take the test and leave, don't finish the video and only do the discussion then take the test and leave, or just take the test. We all chose to just take the test and leave. LoL!! The instructor takes forever explaining her point and we didn't want to wait til after her very detailed lecture to take our test. Class started at 5:40 and we all were gone by 6:20. LoL!!
After Mama picked me up, I drove us to Pete's [one of the best restaurants ever] for our supper!! As usual it was wonderful!! I get the cheeseburger plate [w/ all fries] plus SWEET tea for a lil over $4. It's delicious!!! After we left Pete's, we went to Walmart. I got something I've been wanting for awhile: Grape Kool-aid and Ginger Ale. My Granny use to make us "spiked" Kool-aid when we were little and I've been wanting some!! I'm bout to go make it!! Oh Yeah!!!
I hope tomorrow is a great one!!

Hi Yall!!
Today was crazy. Since my Dad was going to a college that is close to Tech, he drove me to school. I got up a hour after I usually do which totally threw me off schedule. I left my cell phone at home so I couldn't get in touch with my Mom to tell her when I was on my way home; plus I left my observation sheets at home. Class went great today though. Oh, I saw Meagan again today; she showed me the pics of her friend Nikki's baby. He was born a week ago!!
The ride back to Anderson was interesting. Well, just the city bus; the catbus was peaceful compared to the city bus ride. Today seemed like "Use Your Cussing Mouth" day. There were a diverse people on that city bus. 2 guys had 2 cases of each 12 and 18 packs of beer. I was like how can somebody drink that much beer?!? A total waste of money. Plus, the kids who think "they are the best hot stuff in the world and nothing can't stop them" were on the bus. The city bus was packed out today. Right before we pulled to the stop at the mall, a lady got on. She had several and I mean several knife cuts on her arm where she had been cutting herself. It made me sick to see someone like that. The city bus ride today made me realize how thankful and blessed I am to be a Christian and to be in a Christian homelife. God has been so good to me. I am so thankful that I have grown up in church plus have family and friends who care about my life. You don't realize how blessed you are until you see others that have that look of hopelessness in their eyes. I am so glad God has given me hope and assurance that I can make it every day and live in His will.

Hi Yall!!
Today was one of those random days. Multiple times, I felt like I was going to throw up; totally not a great feeling. Anyways, me and Erica went for a LONG walk. We walked to her school which is down the road from Granny and Papa's house. We sat on the swings over 30 minutes and boy was it hard walking back. LoL!! We were so tired because we had been relaxing too long. LoL!! Erica's parents and Emily drove up beside us while we were walking back and Erica got in their car; they asked if I wanted to ride back to Granny's with them but I told them I would walk to rest of the way. I made it back and sat down in one of the recliners and went to sleep. It was a wonderful nap!! Then, after church tonight we had cake and ice cream which I didn't eat because the smell was making me sick. Whenever I smell something really sweet, it always makes me sick. Well, I'm about to head to bed. I've got to get up early in the morning to get to school. Btw, I'm starting to get really tired this semester. I took on too much too soon. I'll make it through if I can find the time to get some sleep...but then again what is sleep?! LoL!!
P.S.
