Beufort, South Carolina

October 27, 2007

Okay, guilty pleasure confession – I like to read Nicholas Sparks novels. He sets most of his novels in his home town of Beufort, South Carolina. After reading about this town so much, I have decided that I want to go there, spend a week, rent a house on the shore, and sit on the [...]

The Jetson’s Come to Life

October 25, 2007

Check this out! They are making a car that can fly! Cool, huh! I heard about it on the radio this morning and had to check it out. You can pre-order your car today if you want to. I don’t know about you, but it looks like it has a huge blind spot – the [...]

Thriller

October 20, 2007

On Friday night, Mandy and I went to see Odyssey Dance Theater’s performance of Thriller. It is an amazing series of dances that are all about Halloween themes. The first half is hilarious; however, the second half is a little bit dark. The dancing is absolutely stunning. Every year they do most of the same [...]

Can Men and Women Really Be Friends?

October 17, 2007

I recently watched When Harry Met Sally on TV the other day (it is rated R, so only watch it if it comes on TV). It happens to be one of my favorite shows. In it Harry and Sally argue about whether or not men and women can really be “just friends.” Harry says that [...]

Books I can read over and over

October 8, 2007

I just read for the hundredth time (okay that is exaggerating) My Name is Asher Lev and The Gift of Asher Lev by Chaim Potok. I had mentioned them to someone last week and was thinking about them on the way home from work one day and just started crying in my car. I absolutely [...]

Paint Your Wagon

October 4, 2007

So, last night I went to go see Paint Your Wagon at Pioneer Theater with my school. It was okay, but it was nothing like the movie. In fact, they completely changed the story and only used 3 of the songs. I was disappointed. As a child, I would watch Paint Your Wagon all the [...]

Holy Suspensions!

October 2, 2007

So last week some of my students were involved in an incident called “Birthday Beatings.” What basically happens is that if it is your birthday you can agree to get a birthday beating. But there are rules to this practice. Each “beater” gets how ever many seconds you are old to beat you up. For [...]

Why I LOVE cold weather

October 1, 2007

This last weekend, I walked out of the grocery store and it was snowing! I literally giggled out loud when I saw and felt the snow. I got a big smile on my face. While other people were huddling and running to their cars, I stood there and enjoyed the moment. So here are some [...]
