the most amazing movie

it won a lot of awards... so I wasn't so sure that it was really going to be that great of a movie...

...but it was! the best that I have probably ever seen. and so sad. It reminded me a lot of what we have been talking about in my culture and schooling class (i know... what a dork) but kind of the exact opposite. the kid in the movie had every disadvantage after disadvantage that a person could have, yet all of those disdvantages led him to the greatest advantage of his life. if you haven't seen it, watch it.

There's something in the water...

I am sure you are all aware of the virtue: It is important to think before you act. 

I have decided that is why I never get anything done, I think too much. At least this is what I am telling myself to make myself feel better about being a procrastinator. 

Crazy times at gcec today. I wrote up more discipline notes today than I have the whole time that I have worked there. I am not sure if there will be any kids at school tomorrow... 

first timer

so, I am new to this whole blog world, even though I have had this blog for three years, I guess I just never felt inspired to write in it. I still don't really feel inspired, but I am writing anyways...

so, I found this great site that keeps track of your daily nutrition. it is called sparkpeople.com

now I have never really been into dieting, exercise, or anything of that nature, but I am ADDICTED to this site. I think it might also be partly due to the fact that I got rid of facebook and I need some way to channel my obsessive checking of something online habit. you tell it what you ate that day, and it keeps track of it all and gives you all this information (which I don't really use, I just like knowing that I can use it if I ever felt the need to...)
