Say WHAT?!


I was just reading my assigned homework reading and thought, how else can I procrastinate this slightly dull rather boring research paper? A blog update. Sadly, friends I'm still with blogger's block and don't know where to start. I thought I'd start off with what I'm trying to read, in an effort to rally some sympathy and support for my efforts. This is a random sample:

"...experimental studies proved that kind of information. More specifically, descriptive analyses may not reveal differences among social contingencies that maintain problem behavior, cannot detect extremely thin schedules of reinforcement and may incorrectly suggest contingent attention as the source of maintenance because attention is a commonly observed consequence for ...." blah blah blah


Now if you're still reading, I'm supposed to understand what that said. Or at least the significance of it. Not a clue. And that's about how these past four weeks of class have felt. "Excuse me, am I in the right class?" "Could you please speak English and not textbook ma'am?" "May I go now?"

I've started at Logan High this week and its absolutely terrifying. I've only been observing for the past two days and will start doing my own lessons next week. My first day when I walked in I almost turned around and walked right out. I'm not really scared of high school kids.. I was just walking through the halls and all of these horrible memories of high school returned. Then I notice that everyone around was taller than me and that I didn't look a day older than they do. How do I command respect from these people? I'm just being dramatic as I usually am on here.. I'm sure it'll all be fine its just the jitters that I'll have for the first few days.

My kindergartners were a hoot today. Apparently it was PJ day and when I got to the school they were all hiding under the table to surprise me. Don't worry after talk of spongebob and dragons we got back on track.

I was a little disappointed in LOST last night. I was promised ANSWERS! And all I got was more questions! And for some reason we had to watch commercials literally every 2 minutes for 2 hours just to find out more questions! So all I learned from it is that if a main character dies they aren't really dead. So don't you worry they'll be back one way or another. Unless the actor decides he wants more money. Then he might really be dead.

That's all I have for today. Back to the reading so I can go to the Aggie game tonight. :) Go Aggies!!!!

lol, I don't care what you say, I thoroughly enjoy reading your posts! I really don't think that was in English either...maybe robot. Sounds like your kindergardeners love you! And the high school kids will too! It was fun to have you guys over the other night!
