3 Years later

Greetings Blogger-

It has been quite a while since I last posted. After sitting here laughing at all my crazy posts that I had written when I was doing my undergrad I figured I should update a few things.
5 things to know

1. Teaching is not as scary as it may seem once you have classroom management down (Fred Jones is my Hero).
2. Life seems to always throw crazy-ness at you and you just have to overcome it.
3. No matter how hard you try to get over something, some things are just never going to leave you like loosing someone close to you.
4. You can knit your way out of a plastic bag. (see Plarn )
5. You can always start a new chapter in your life, but the hardest part is finishing what you have started.


So after all of that, it is exciting to see what the future has in store for us all.

As I was lesson planning for my 2nd grade class, I saw in the curriculm books about Carmen Miranda and a Jazz song called Jada. So in effort to bring the musician's work to life I jumped on youtube to find a great video of Carmen singing and Count Basis playing Jada. Enjoy.
