Your Royal Highness



I have exactly 5 minutes to write this post. Ready GO!

These are some my kids. I love them so very much. The other day they all showed up in pink and black. It was crazy. They also decided that I am the queen and that they are my princesses {and prince!} and they called me "Your Royal highness" for the rest of class. I can't get over how much I adore them. #bestjobever!


I will add to this later.

Thank you Mr. Conner for making us write in cursive, because grading and deciphering assignments of my classmates has helped me be a better indexer.

tickets & music





 

My lovely sister is going to play Adelaide in the Jr. High production of Guys and Dolls in 3 weeks. We are in charge of tickets. We have been cutting out and labeling all day and we are finally finished. Whoo! So if any of you would like to come watch my beautiful sister kiss a boy tickets go on sell at Bowman's Grocery Store on Monday. {There are two casts so her performances are Wednesday, Friday, and the Saturday Matinee.}

{does anybody know how to rotate this?}
{I <3 Miki}
{TICKETS!}



This has basically been my entire day. I also went to watch an old neighbor open his mission call. That was fun. It's kind of a short post today so I will leave you with my favorite song of the week. It has been on replay for most of the day.

p.s. Who else bought Les Miserables yesterday? I DID! :)

a Library, a Museum or a Zoo





Me? I'd pick a library. I'd pick a large library with a large glass roof. If I had the decision I would fill it with all kinds of love storie and fantacy novels. That way even though I would be trapped in one place for the rest of my life, my mind would be free. I would have a large comfy area for reading and I would let the public come and read with me. I would remain there until my prince came to rescue me. Then he would come live with me in my castle of stories. Can you tell I am a hopeless romantic? Too bad boys don't know I exhist.


What would you pick?

p.s. End of term = lots of free time on the computer to write blog posts because teachers don't teach anything = Happy Whitney!

p.s.s. I want to read now, but I need books. Anyone have any good sugestions?

Teach

    "If the teacher
does not           
                   teach,
 the students 
 do not               
           learn."
            -Mr. Child
We are at the end of third term and we are on our third science teacher. Our first one quit to go live on a cruise ship and the second one was never actually a teacher, just a long term sub. He got his name on our schedules, but never taught the class. Instead, he gave us study guides and we had to teach our selves. We now have a new teacher named Mr. Child. He has already taught us something {whoa! Teach?!? Now that's something we are not used to.} We might have hope for the end of levels now. Maybe.

So here is my message to all those teachers out there: TEACH! Please don't rely on the book to do it for you. We'd all really appreciate it.

Now back to the whole "end of the term thing". Is anyone else really stressed about their grade in Mrs. Brown's class? I'm pretty sure her goal is to ruin everybody's GPA. Would somebody please bake the pregnant lady a cake or something so she will be happy when she grades our essays? #shehatesus

That's all from me! Have a happy Friday tomorrow! {aka the-day-we-were-supposed-to-have-off-but-don't-because-we-took-a-snow-day-we-didn't-need-and-now-have-to-make-it-up.}

1st day of spring

Happy 1st day of spring! Hope everyone had a fantastic day! {Now mother nature... it is officially "spring" now, therefore, you no longer have permission to use the snow machines. So please continue with the rain and maybe bring us some sunshine.}

Today one of my five year olds got very excited when she found out that I was a "REAL LIVE TEENAGER!" {her words, not mine}. I thought it was cute. Then she said to her sister almost giggling "she can drive!" gah! I love my kids.

Today my entire team decided to pretend we're British... including my coach. We spent the entire two and a half hours perfecting our hopeless accents. It was fun and I don't think I've laughed that hard in a while. I love you guys!

Note to the wise: clean your room. There is a possibility the bishopric could come over and want to see all your medals, and your hanging bed. I was not so fortunate to have receive this memo and greatly regret it. Consider this your only warning. 

Well, it's a short post today. I guess this is the second one of the day so that makes up for it right?

p.s. I'm bad at waking up on time. Anyone else have this issue?

my love life

I've been in this long term relationship with tumbling for the last nine and a half years. We are together and happy. In once cheated on tumbling with the teatre but called it off when it got to complicated. Sometimes I wonder what would have happened if I had continued to date theatre. What would have come of it? Nevertheless I am happy with tumbling. And my words to theatre are:

      "because I
knew you,         
       I have been
changed     
                 for good."

p.s. Good luck to all my friends getting jobs right now. Jobs are fun. Money is even more fun. I have a job. I have had a job since I was 13. I know weird right?
 
p.s.s. Hank Smith is my favorite. Go listen to him.


p.s.s.s. Going back to school after a meet is quite painful. Going back to the gym, however, is not...unless you have a sprained ankle. :/
