old skool tv show movies

it’s so cool, i’m sitting here with my seniors talking about the upcoming live action transformers movie, and then they told me they’re also making a he-man movie!!  and the dude who’s playing he-man is jason lewis, who played smith jerrod on #### and the city.  it was funny cuz his imdb profile doesn’t have a profile pic, and it says he’s in a movie, my bollywood bride, so at first we thought he-man was gonna be indian!  but no, he has long blonde hair and he actually looks like he-man!

another movie they were talking about was the thundercats movie, which, according to that website, stars Mathew McConnaughey as Liono, Ed Harris as Mumm-Ra, Tea Leoni as Cheetara, Wesley Snipes as Panthro, and David Carradine as Tigra.  NO FRICKIN WAY!  but i can’t find any info for it on imdb, so… i dunno, i guess we’ll have to wait to see.

but yah, it’s cool.  that’s my big news for today.  and btw, i like it that my students know what thundercats and silverhawks and voltron and all that other stuff is =)

mmm... pancake breakfast

so… some of the students brought pancake batter this morning and made pancakes during their free period.  i happened to see ‘em and snagged the remnants and had a mini-pancake for breakfast this morning.  meanwhile, the student body president brought oatmeal chocolate chip cookie dough and they put it in the oven in between classes and then ran outta my classroom to pull it out of the oven, and then brought it back to class and shared with everyone.

have i said yet that i LOVE my school?  where else would my students make me pancakes for breakfast and bake cookies for my entire class?  this place ROCKS!!!!

proverbs 32: the virtuous man

so yesterday, i was reading laura’s birthday tribute to her dad, and i was impressed with the relationship that they shared.  i found it so sweet that i commented that i want my future husband to have that with my future daughter.

and then one of my guy friends told me that i’m asking for alot, and the other one just said, “good luck.” actually, the first one told me “hehehe, seems like you have alot of expectations, perhaps you need alot of prayers =)”

yes, i would appreciate the prayers, but y’know, i was thinking, it’s not too much to ask that a guy strives to make our family the best it can be - after all, i’d like to think that i come as close to the virtuous woman described in proverbs 31 as i possibly can.  yah, i’m not perfect, but i like to try to do the best for my family & friends.  and stuff like cooking dinner for all my friends every tuesday and learning to sew or fix the fridge is something i wanna keep on doing all my life, especially when i have kids and become the housewife i’ve always wanted to be.

at any rate, i ended up googling “virtuous woman and virtuous man Bible passage” and came up with this website that makes up the qualities of a virtuous man.  now, i KNOW that there’s no 32nd book of proverbs, but this is a compilation of desirable male traits taken from the real 31 books of proverbs.  and since there IS a list of qualities that woman should be, it’s sorta nice to have this Biblical list of what a guy should be too. 

and may he play volleyball too =)

productivity

yesterday, i got up past noon.  but i made up for it the rest of the day, cuz you know what i did?  i cleaned up my room (no more pile of boxes in the middle of my room!  yay!!), fixed my fridge (and impressing rita’s mom by doing so), cleaned up my living room, cooked myself -both- breakfast-past-lunch-time and dinner, paid all my bills, and just in general got my life in order.  well… all that was possible, anyways.  so much stuff done… i’m so proud of myself =) and it only took a month after i moved in =) hahahaha… nice, eh?

i'm just a regular person!

last night, two of my students (cp & sh) called me just to say hi, and they asked me what i was doing.  hahhaha… they caught me on the way to AI, so i told ‘em:  “i’m headed over to arcade right now.” i could hear them talking to themselves - ‘omg, she’s going to the arcade’ and i could hear the laughter in the background.  =)

but yah, the students get so weirded out by me being a normal person.  well, by normal, i mean, not just a teacher. 

like the other day, some of the students found out i’m on myspace, and they were like, “YOU have a myspace?!?!” they couldn’t believe it =) and then their classmate (cs) was like, “c’mon guys, she’s not THAT old!” hahahaha....

yesterday was really funny tho cuz in geometry, mr was freaking out cause he couldn’t handle the fact that i was “normal” or just like them.  right before the class started the students were all crowded around my desk and listening to music and i was singing along, and he just kept on telling me - STOP IT!!! THIS IS JUST TOO WEIRD!! YOU’RE SUPPOSED TO BE A TEACHER!”

i dropped my head into my hands, mock-hurt, and said, “teachers are normal people too!!!!  we just wanna be loved!!!!”

yah, the students… they’ve gotta get used to me =)
