Life

Other than watching 24, I have found a church and a fun post-college group! I hope things continue to go well. I have been attending Santa Cruz Bible Church. I really like the pastor and the young adult pastor. I hope it will start to feel more like home soon, but man, do i miss Grace!! Can't wait to go to SLO...2 weeks!
I LOVE 24!

An update...

Well, I think it's time for an update...even though theres not much to update!

I just finished season 2 of 24...and wow, that is a high quality show...love stories, action, crazyness...and of course Jack Bauer and Tony Almeda dont make the show horrible..haha. Although I already know Tony dies in season 5 :o(

Anywho, I have been spending a lot of my time watching 24 and reading! I haven't found a church yet, so I havent really met many people, outside of school. I can't wait to find a home church! School is pretty much the same. It seems to get better each day, even though my one student is an emotional rollercoaster...he pretty much dominates my life, in school and out. I love him to death...and today he gave me a huge hug, first time hes ever done that...but wow...that was only after a very long crying fit he through during my lesson. He's a hard one, but he's worth all the time and energy. This is what I was born to do...give these kids the hope they need! I know the Lord brought me here for a reason, even if its just taht one student. So everyday, when I question my career choice, I have to remind myself of all the positives. Not to mention, I couldn't have picked a better staff to work with, wow they're amazing. The 2nd grade team is pretty much the best! My partner(th eother bilingual teacher) is so awesome. She's so helpful and if she wasn't married with 2 kids, im sure we'd hang out all the time..haha.

Last weekend Rachel came to visit. She got to come to my class and hang out for the day..it was interesting for her, haha. We went to the aquarium, to the gilroy outlets and to the santa cruz boardwalk..it was an awesome weekend! The weeks after those weekends are always hard, because now i have nothing to do this weekend! Well, except for Sunday, because Kristina and I are going to the Padres-Giants game in SF! We have 2nd row tickets! woo hoo! Soooo excited!

Well, I guess I'll get some sleep....so happy to sleep in! Hope everyone is well!

24

Ok...since I don't really have much of a life after full day of teaching, I have been watching A LOT of 24, and I mean a lot. I got season 1 for graduation and then bought season 2 cuz it was on sale. I'm almost finished with 2, then I have to watch 3 and then the last few episodes of 4 and then season 5, and then I'll be all caught up! I have until January, til the new one starts, so i think ill be ok. Anyways, I'm a little emotional today, because I had a rough day...but anyways, Jack Bauer is about to fly a plane with a nuclear bomb into the desert so that he can save everyone in california. He's talking to his daughter and saying good bye...so I actually find myself crying! After its over, I start laughing hysterically. I know that jack bauer is in every season, so i know he doesnt die! hahahhaha...still, such a girl thing to do! Ok, this post was really lame, but i thought it was funny. If you dont watch, you should. Monday nights, starting in january!



HAHAHAHA
