change is scary

Seriously! We have two Alums in the top 40 this year. Julie Zorilla and Casey Abrams. Casey's dad is a film teacher at the school and Casey is a local. he is up here a lot. Everyone knew he was crazy talented but very subtle about it. We knew he could play, but most of us had no idea he was a singer of the level. So Idol fever here. I think it may be for a good reason. He was always a bit off the beaten path. Pretty cool to seen someone you had in a class performing to that level. I don't know Julie. I must admit that she has great fashion taste! She is also a very strong singer...but I am really rooting for Casey. Have you seen him? Here is a link to his audition last night. I am blown away. how about you???

i got a raise! WOOOHOOOO!!!!

it is going well. I have the class 4 days this week with average class size of 65 students. I finished up with the boys tonight. I had the upper class boys last night and the lower class tonight. What a difference. Boys really have to go through a lot. the upper class boys were cocky and some were obnoxious. the lower class boys were curious and overall a good response. They had questions...really well thought out questions. I was very proud of them. I have the upper class girls tomorrow night. I love this dorm but fear that they may be harder to focus due to the fact I know them....but love them!
I will be teaching next year in the second quarter. It will be a health class divided between myself and another colleague and supervised by the head of the counseling department. We are going to do a health class. I will be providing the medical, anatomical/physiological lectures and she will provide the sociological/psychological discussions. I like this format. I think this in service was a test and I passed. My feedback was that my info was very well researched with good delivery and was approachable. My hardest audience was the gay student body. I was very literal and unbias in my lecture...but i think they were looking for a reason. I am sorry. birth control is women centered and same sex male relationships don't cross over to that in medical relevance. Condoms and lubrication was discussed for std protection. Can't please everyone...but I try. there is always a drama queen and boy, was he! I rolled my eyes when he left. so typical.
Well, here is to more future possibilities and finally getting closer to that goal of teaching a health and sex class.

phil and I are picking up our blackberry storms tonight. does anyone have one?

Keeping my fingers crossed....

It couldn't be anymore brilliant than it already is. That is how I feel on so many levels. Wow.

Thought for the day: Remember, when the world pushes you to your knees, you're in the perfect position to pray.
Pass this on to someone you care about.
Being happy doesn't mean every thing's perfect. It means you've decided to see beyond the imperfections .
I hope this touched you!
