happy halloween, from lego kimi
just a combination of my halloween costume in lego form. i think it looks just like me, what do you think?
happy halloween
i don’t normally celebrate halloween but i did stop by janet’s party dressed up as a li’l school girl… gwyn & perry think i should’ve worn the outfit to school today - the irony being that i’m the teacher! hahahah… anyways, that night the best costume in my opinion tho was rod and colleen’s prom king and queen outfit - as a 50’s high school couple. they’re so cute…

workshop fridays
every other friday at my school is a workshop friday, and i’ve chosen to teach quilting as one of my workshops. today, carynn finished her first quilt ever! i’m so proud of her =) she did a great job learning how to use a sewing machine and putting her pieces together, and she’s now inspired to make several quilts for her baby cousin that was just born and for a few more peoples…
i have so much fun with the students when they’re willing to participate in the activities!

munkeyin' around the gym
jesse, gus, & madison were jumpin and clickin their heels after the volleyball game last week, and they had so much fun posing for the camera =) my poor camera… i couldn’t find the charger during the big move and when i finally turned my camera back on, the left and right buttons don’t work anymore! that means that i can’t change the settings, so it’s stuck at 1M with the flash on. booo!!! i’m not happy about that. luckily, i can still take some pictures, although they’re not the quality i want them to be anymore. anyways, pictures will be a little sporadic from now on since i’ve stopped taking as many pictures.
anyways, this means that i’m in the market for a new camera. any suggestions?

407th place
out of 1473 players in the blogger’s poker tournament. so what’s that… um… i dunno, somewhere in the top 3rd. i guess that’s good enough for my first time…
here are my stats:
During current Hold’em session you were dealt 142 hands and saw flop:
- 7 out of 15 times while in big blind (46%)
- 7 out of 15 times while in small blind (46%)
- 20 out of 112 times in other positions (17%)
- a total of 34 out of 142 (23%)
Pots won at showdown - 5 of 12 (41%)
Pots won without showdown - 17
is that good? bad? i know some of the hands i shouldn’t have played, actually, most of the time i was playing conservative, but then i played an A-8 suited and the dude had an A-9, and then after that they started having ante’s, and that just sucked all the money outta my chip stack.
but hey, it looks like i won 22 hands out of the 34 hands that i played, so that’s not that bad. =)
and i think i’ve learned quite a bit about how to play in online tourneys, and that’ll definitely help me next time, if i ever join one again.
OR… maybe i’ll just go to pechanga instead and do it live =) hahahaha… you think i’m joking, don’tcha =)

off to school i go
it’s past 8 but i’m not late to work. after all, it’s a friday, so i’m either gonna do a quilting workshop or take my students on a field trip. this week is field trip friday, and so i’ve joined forces with science-kim and gabriela and we’re headed to the krikorian with about 50 students and we’re gonna watch the corpse bride.
yes, you heard me right! for work today, i get to go in late and watch corpse bride with my students =)
i dunno how science-kim did it but she has reasons to watch this. we’re gonna go over literary mumbo jumbo before the movie and talk about the time period, the movie style, etc, and then we get to watch it.
oh, and when that’s over, i’m done working for the day =) i’ll probably hang out at gfe or something and get all my grading done. i LOVE fridays!
