Ten things

First off, holy crap what a stressful last couple of weeks.
- Content Literacy papers sucked up a lot of time the day after they were due.  Got them done and did okay other than the -5 for being late. oh well i guess.
- Time spent trying to get hold of schools is ridiculous. nobody answers their phone anymore. when i finally did get in contact with someone they said who uses a phone anymore! I mean really, if the contact info gives the phone number first, shouldn't that be the first line of communication?
- Computer went more on the fritz and sent it in, well tried sending it in.  It sat in an office for a few days because apparently FedEx Express doesn't pickup overnight packages unless you call them first with the okay. Dumb. Whatever, got it shipped eventually and got it back like two days later which was wonderful.
- Moving sucked.  Too many boxes, too much re-organzing of things, too much time lost on a free day.
- Got my name transferred over to the new location for electricity.  Now the company uses some All-connect BS to get everything else transferred over as well.  Apparently this group sucks at what they do because I was told I would my cable/internet setup three days later.  Well three days went by and I called the company turning my cable/net back on and apparently there wasn't an appointment scheduled and the earliest I could have it done was another 5 days from now.
- People need to just do their jobs right or don't waste my time on the phone trying to get something done I can do faster on my own!

Second, I'm a boy which means I like to multi-task because I enjoy putting all of my effort into one thing at a time.  When boys get stressed, it is fact that they isolate themselves in order to accomplish something.  Girls do the opposite and like to talk about their problems.  This is fact and I have a presentation someone from class made to prove it.

Third, Finished my diversity class that really ended up being more of a time waster rather than really teaching me anything.  Anything I did actually learn was research that I did on my own for all of the topics rather than really getting information from the class itself.

Fourth,  As much as I love Bethel, it is beginning to be something that contains a lot of filler courses in order to meet standards.  I understand having red tape but there have got to be better ways of going about teaching this information and making it something that will be of use to a future teacher.

Fifth, I feel like there have been more negatives lately than positives.

Sixth,  I'm in love with my girlfriend and she makes me happy, even when i'm a stupid boy.

Seventh, I'm excited that its getting closer to student teaching time but I wish things would move along faster because I'm so ready to actually be out in the field doing some good.  I want to put what I have learned into practice and share my knowledge with the class.

Eighth, I have become a member of the drama team at church.  It's pretty cool actually.  Last week a did a brief monologue that really seemed to get the congregation interested in the sermon for that day.  I think there will be some excellent dramas in the future.

Ninth,  Now that I have moved, I am mostly unpacked and just have a few little things to unpack and a short list of things to get or do in the near future.
- Some sort of end table that can fit a printer underneath or on some kind of shelf
- Fix the old chair by replacing part of the frame
- By a door stopper so when I open my door it doesn't bash into the wall
- Deal with the old bouldering wall plywood sheet
          - Maybe craft this into a headboard for the bed
- Hang my pictures on the wall
- Think about how I'm going to organize my bikes and what kind of rack to build or buy

Tenth,  I need to take my girl on a date and do something good for her because she is so wonderful and puts up with me even when i'm being silly or DUM. And yes I'm meaning to spell it that way.

Hopefully I'm able to get some more good study time in tomorrow before my test on Monday.  I need to get a good grade so I can get my money back through work.  That will be huge, plus I have to get the credits to transfer into school so I'm able to be licensed in chemistry.

Also, I should probably start doing yoga/swimming again. Or cancel my gym membership, one of the two.  And probably blog some more, it's been a while and I think getting things out of my head like this actually helps me a bit even if very few people are aware this is here.
