I once listened to an Indian on television say that God was in the wind and the water, and I wondered at how beautiful that was because it meant you could swim in Him or have Him brush your face in a breeze.

Thank you, lovely. I’ve been doing pretty great lately! I’ve been spending a lot of time at a local elementary school, as well as working and going to class. How have you been? Are you back home from America yet, or do you still have a bit of time before you travel back?

Oh that’s so good to hear :) how is your grandma doing? Yeah I’m still in America but leave tomorrow night! I’m really looking forward to it and ready to go home now :) but think I’ll be back again I reckon. :). You’re from Michigan right?

My grandma is doing alright. She’s been in and out of the hospital for numerous things, but she just got out a few days ago and is in high spirits. And yes, Michigan! Come visit next time, or maybe I’ll come visit Australia. :) (I’ve been looking into study abroad programs over there)

Happy Monday!

Teachers matter. So instead of bashing them, or defending the status quo, let’s offer schools a deal. Give them the resources to keep good teachers on the job, and reward the best ones. In return, grant schools flexibility: To teach with creativity and passion; to stop teaching to the test; and to replace teachers who just aren’t helping kids learn.

Lately.

  • I’ve been working out and eating healthy the past two weeks. It’s time for me to start taking care of my body, which is the absolute opposite of what I have been doing the past 22 years of my life.
  • This afternoon, I went and met my Kindergarden class for my observation hours this semester. As soon as I introduced myself, the sweetest little girl came up to me and said “Your hair… it’s so beautiful,” with such amazement. Kids are so precious. I’m loving this already.
  • I’ve been swamped with classes and work, but honestly have not felt very overwhelmed. (Knock on wood)
  • I’m just feeling entirely blessed to have the opportunities I’ve been given and am trying not to forget the joys of the little things when I’m feeling a bit down.

i literally used to cry at night because my furby would randomly start talking and wake me up and i was too scared to kill it and when the batteries started dying his voice got creepier and it sounded like he was saying satanic chants so i made my parents throw him into a landfill and i fear everyday that he’ll come back

gpoy of all gpoy’s.
