So, it's been a month, and I know that I've wanted to write in this more than once a month, but I've been super-busy. School is fine so far. My feet kill me, and my throat has been bothering. It's only been the first week, so hopefully it will get better. We had a fun time the past couple of days. We went out to eat with our friends Kellen and Erin and there cute little guy Cole. We are so happy that they are living in Mesa! So close! We went to Rainforest Cafe, which is a little overpriced but still a fun atmosphere. We went to California about a month ago. My mom took me clothes shopping for school--- it was a lot of fun. And then, I had my birthday. I turned 23 on the 8th for my platinum birthday 8-8-08. It was fun. Rick took me out to eat at Black Angus, then he took me shopping, and then we went home and relaxed for a bit. I had a great time.
In our new ward, I am the Webelos Den Leader in the Cub Scouts and Rick is the Cub Master. Rick is fine with it, because he's all into scouting. Me, however, I was confused. I thought that all the dens were animals, so when they asked me to be the Webelos leader, I thought "What animal is that?" It has been a lot of fun, working with the 10 year old boys. They're really wiry and energetic, but I can deal with it, I do teach 7th grade.
My students so far this first week are alright. I made a lot of mistakes my first year of teaching, and I am absolutely determined not to make them again. I am working hard, and I am showing the students who is in charge. Nice kids..... so far. It's only been the first week though. Rick is doing well. He's almost done with his semester at school, he just got a small job as a translator in the school district that I work in, and he is working hard with his IT job at the moment. I am so proud of him. So excited that he graduates in March! Only 5 more days until my first paycheck since May! Woohoo!
