The Holiday Season =]

I am Pregnant! Due sometime in August. =]

Last year was the year for weddings, and it shifted to babies! I guess that makes sense.

Joe and I went home for Christmas, to a land full of rain! I think it didn't rain about 3 days that we were in California. ha, but it was much better than snow!

Mom and I baked like Martha Stewart (I would say better than as well....)

Ate yummy food

Saw family

Laughed at Napoleon, 10 pounds, play with Coral, a 5 month Lab. And he definitely won. =]

Now we are in Portland. Not nearly as exciting. They have random crazy streets and it is cold! I know it is only preparing me for Idaho....but I want more sun. =/

December

I got a job!

I am really WAY excited.

'Cause it ISN'T 4 am janitorial.

Or janitorial or 4 am at all.

I get to be a TA!

Which I am super excited for!

I already get to teach the first week of classes winter semester because the teacher will be gone- kinda nervous, but really excited! =]

It definitely helped put me in a better mood after I talked to one of my teachers who, I personally believe, is a jerk.

What sort of teachers DENIES explaining to his students an answer?

Or blames the class for a bad grade when EVERYONE did bad?

Or teaches ONLY greece and the Book of Mormon in a WORLD CIVILIZATIONS class?

Ya. I was a bit upset. And still am.

I have a 77. I am determined to get a B. which means I have to study my butt off for this ONE class to get at least a B on the final. Because, apparently BYU-I has a 54% A rate from teachers (meaning, I guess to say, that teachers give out 54% A's compared to everything else- if that made sense.) so, of course me explaining to him that I felt I deserved a B didn't say anything. Teachers give out A's at this school....why would my hard work in his stupid class give me an A?

Also....I got him to give me 6 extra points on a test, and it raised my grade from a 77.5----->77.6

Lovely, huh?

PS....military reversal DID start around the time of Akhnaton.

But, I go leave for home in 5 days!!! =]

Jane Eyre

It is the final countdown.

9 more days of school.

1 more paper.

4 more tests.

1 more memorization.

I am most nervous about the paper.

On Jane Eyre.

No clue what I am going to write about- my teacher does not seem to be worried.

heh.

But, I thought this was cool:

“Where there is energy to command well enough, obedience never fails”

-Jane Eyre/ Charlotte Bronte
