Winding down
My internship is coming to a close. We move out of the house we've been renting tomorrow and move into a hotel at Stanford. Monday and Tuesday I brief the people taking over my students. Wednesday there are no classes for the students because of staff development day, so I will spend most of the day finishing all my paperwork. Thursday's it! It'll be all done! Woohoo! Next Friday I will have a Master's degree!
Getting hitched
So Alan came to visit this weekend. For those not on MySpace, you may not know (unless you got a call from others on MySpace) that Alan and I got engaged on Saturday. No details yet, but stay tuned. Alan plans on making a wedding plans website for all to see the planning progress.
I want that doggie in the parking lot...
So this little guy was wandering around the Target parking lot today. Seems that the owner's friend was dog watching and she left all her windows down in the car thinking that Kato wouldn't jump out. Duh!! So he's safe and sound with his mommy now.
Stupid cyberspace
So I posted yesterday and it didn't go up. How irritating. I'm tired so here's the short of it:
Friday: Alan had to make a last minute run to Fresno to finish his motorcycle. I showed up in the 'No' and didn't tell him I was coming
Saturday: Shopping for summer clothes that do not fall off. Last summer size 8/10 this summer 4/6. Blah! After shopping Jamba Juice, naptime, visit with Will and Carrie, and Paige's bday bash with sushi and karaoke.
Sunday: Lunch with Jeanine, help finish the motorcycle, leave Fresno at 8, get stuck in Pacheco pass for over an hour, get back to Palo Alto at 11:10. Blah!
Today: Tired as all get out, family training that I did not expect, Mexican food for dinner with the girls, and working on my last project for school.
Tomorrow: Just getting through the week. Alan will be here on Friday! Only 13 more days of internship!
The government...
gave me $600! Woohoo!!
I swear to you I'm not dead.
So these last couple of weeks have been rough. We took our Comps on Saturday and I tried to regurgitate everything I was supposed to have learned this last year. I only had to make up a small portion of the first section, so hopefully I recited enough Special Education law and litigation crap to pass. The second section was a breeze. The third section was what I expected, but still a lot of regurgitated information. But regardless, it's over. If I pass, then I'm free and clear. If I don't pass, I retake the sections I did not pass.
The internship is going ok. I'm so sick of being here, but I'll survive. Being away from home for 3 months is crappy. Two of my students are being tempermental. I got a new student today and he seems great. He grew up in Monclova, OH and lived in Point Place for awhile. Today we talked may flies. Good times.
Jessica and I are probably going to San Francisco this weekend and get out of our house. I'm itching to do something fun and different. I also need to start my online class. It should be a breeze, but the motivation to do is escaping me. Maybe I'll get to it tonight, but Harry Potter sounds so much better.
