you know those bumper stickers that say

"don't let the car fool you, my real treasure is in heaven"?

i can totally relate.

me and my car are continually in a fight.

nevertheless, i remain grateful to have a car!

amidst the stresses of growing up, i decided it would be best to distract myself from the looming decision process.

so i went back to OYP to do another show.

while i didn't actually wear a raspberry beret, it was a lot of fun.

and proved to be an effective decision-avoider.

PS. Prince kind of creeps me out.

POST EDIT: this is why i always want to sing "raspberry sorbet!" 

one of the great things about graduating college is that there are so many options.

why is it that this is also the most overwhelming part of graduating?

around this time during my student teaching, i was ready to hide under a rock.

it seemed easier to not think about it 

but the longer i didn't think about it, the more overwhelming it became.

whomp wah

seeing how i have neither in my life at the moment,

i have recently begun to neglect my poor little nikon.

(being busy hasn't helped the cause either)

ps. my camera totally looks like this...i wish

there was a teacher in the department that i worked in that had a killer mustache.

complete with wax for the magical curl.

he was also australian.

making him even cooler.

i couldn't compete.

ps. i originally spelled it moustache, but then second guessed myself and changed to mustache.

how do you spell it? is one more correct than the other? 

oh, those mysterious m(o)ustaches!

me: what did you have for lunch today?

student: hot cheetos

me: is that all?

student: yeah, mr. mac! they so gooooood. you want some?

me: no, that's okay. thanks though.

student: you gotta try em. they make your tongue numb.

me: well in that case...(eats flamin' hot cheeto)

they were in fact flaming. and they did in fact make my tongue numb.

to begin, my semester was dominated by student teaching.

while i had a great experience, i hope i never have to see 4am ever again in my life.

with that said, i think i chose the wrong profession.
