What A Weekend!!

AB and I went up to Kentucky this weekend for Court Days and Keeneland, and what a great weekend it was!!


We had so much fun seeing the BFF Jess and Mike, and to top it off -- KENTUCKY BEAT SOUTH CAROLINA!!!



I was loving every minute of it, being the Kentucky gal I am, but AB was a little disappointed. You see, even AB had flaws -- he is a USC fan.


A full post to follow soon!!

Back in the Classroom...

Today was the first day of my 1-week practicum, and I just loved it! The kids were all very sweet, as were my cooperating teachers, and I am so thankful!

It is also Spirit Week at the school I am observing, so it has been quite an experience! I can't wait to get back to it tomorrow and see what else this week has in store!!

BTW, I'm kinda over the blog challenge, but it was fun while it lasted!!

Until Next Time,

Blog Challenge Day 6

5 People Who Mean A Lot to Me

5 - My Family. Without them, I would not be the person I am today (quite literally, I suppose). But in all seriousness, through the ups and downs that all families experience, I am so glad to call these people mine. Enjoy the picture. It was taken about 4 years ago when my little brother was still in his rebellious stage (as if the skull hoodie in the family Christmas pic didn't give it away).

4 - AB. You mean the world to me, and I would be so much more crazy without than I am with you. Thank you for balancing me out, being my voice of reason, and making me laugh!

3 - Jess. I can't even begin to top the lovely write-up you did for me... But know that you are the best friend a girl could ask for! Through our ups and downs, rights and wrongs, year after year... You have been there for me, and I can't ever thank you enough for doing that... Even the times I just needed you to listen. I can't WAIT to come home for Keeneland and Court Day and see you in 2 weeks!!!

2 - My fellow Social Studies MAT-ers. I know we all talked about this on Thursday while studying for Helms' midterm, but I couldn't ask for a better group of people. I am so glad that we are all so eager to learn, discuss, and share our viewpoints in a respectful way. I was so afraid that grad school was going to be uber-competitive and full of back-stabbers... You've pleasantly surprised me! (In case y'all are wondering, this is our mascot, Chauncey... We're the Coastal Carolina Chanticleers!)

1 - My previous teachers. I never really truely knew how much you've influenced my life until I started working on my masters. I'm sure at times, even I made you feel like you didn't do enough or weren't making a difference. But it couldn't be any clearer now. WIthout you all, I would never have gotten this far, and even it was only me that you impacted, you made a difference.

Until Next Time,
