Admissions Blog

so, like i mentioned before...

i am now officially being paid to write blogs for saint joseph's college as an admissions tool for prospective students.


if you're curious to see what I'm writing there, follow this link...



i guess i could start posting them here as well... but they are designed to be a marketing tool moreso than an honest blog about me and my life, so i don't know...

blogging again

so i've gotten a job on campus as a blogger for admissions...

the blog's not up and running yet, so i can't post a link...

i will as soon as i can, though...

9

so it's 9-9-09

a day i've been waiting for because i really really want to see 9

but apparently rensselaer has decided not to carry the film, at all, so i'm going to have to drive at least 45 minutes to see the film...


i'm a little bitter...


also, note about today: wednesday has 9 letters, september also has 9 letters, and is the 252nd day of the year (2+5+2=9)

fifteen books...

The English major in me couldn't resist doing this:

Don't take too long to think about it.
List 15 books you've read that will always stick with you.
They should be the first 15 you can recall in no more than 15 minutes.

student teaching...

so...

i start my first day of student teaching tomorrow...

the students start on thursday...

i'd be lying if i said i wasn't completely terrified...

and i was told my students will use all of their internet knowledge to find everything i'm associated--which means they'll find this... if you're one of my students and you've stumbled upon this, kudos... a word to you: be awesome, not miserable... those are really some of the best words to live by...


here goes nothing.
