memorial day.

well, it's about the end good ol' memorial day '05! what did yoooou do with yourself on this lovely holiday? i wore my lucky patriotic underwear, and hung out with the best person in the world! snaps for me. from what i've heard, most of ya'll were off workin' hard. hah! i don't work yet. anyway, now read about my jolly day...
i stayed at eric's house last night. it was a good time!;-) this morning, eric and i (along with kayla & ryan) left the lovely clinton hills and went to the island. iowa street on the island, to be exact. it was a really nice house. we went to a graduation party for one of eric's mommy's friends. it was nice. i ate a hotdog. and, one of linda's famous really good brownies!lol i threw a basketball, and it went in the hoop. yay! i haven't done that in a long time...believe it or not, eric, i used to be really good at basketball in middle school!lol i also played a volleyball-related thing with gwen for a few minutes. and, i watched ryan & kayla play ping-pong. then, i sat and listened to people chat. hmm...i think that's it.
THEN, eric and i went to his grandparents' house. i like them; they're funny. at their house, i ate another hotdog. and, some egg salad. and, watermelon. woot. yay for memorial day hotdog eating!
so, i might go to spain with eric's grandma in december!=) now i'll have someone to fly across the ocean with...yay! i'll go with someone; i'm just scared to leave the continent alone.lol (i probably would, bc i think that it would be kinda cool...but, still scary.) anyway, now i have someone fun to go with!
after that fiasco, eric brought me home. i sat. he went to his house and mowed grass. then, i talked to him for a bit. i started making something cool. you can't know about it until it is done...hah! it thunderstormed. then, i watched "that thing you do". now i am listening to the goat song, eating elf cookies, and possessing a great patriotic feeling! seriously, what other country is as great as this one!?!? none. plus, we have elf cookies!

mapache.

home, home at last. yay for a ceiling with no voices coming from it!
quiero mi novio.
i went shopping w/ my mommy today. i got NEW SHOES!!!!! they are seafoam coloured and strappy. hooray! i also got some new clothes. plus, lots of food for my beach trip. and, i do mean lots.
my dumb landlord hasn't sent me the check that he was "getting into the mail today" on tuesday. oh, but he's very sorry. big whoop, mr.
i got some more vitamins, so don't fret for my health.
eric said that my face looked different tonight; he didn't know how. i wonder if it was a good different or a bad different. and, i wonder if i'm back to normal yet. personally, i just thought i looked pretty darn gross tonight.
yay for "phantom of the opera" music!!!!!!=)
i am sleeeeeeeeepy.

plush.

i've had the "full house" theme song stuck in my head for 2 days now.
maybe i'll get a little pet plant and name him nigel. he should be spikey. or pink. or spikey AND pink!
the infamous disappearing aunt is supposed to appear on fathers' day. that should be interesting.
i'm very grossely white. pooey!
i like banana bread. and, i like earrings a lot. yay!
"for yesterday is but a dream, and tomorrow is only a vision. but, today well liked makes yesterday a dream of happiness, and every tomorrow a vision of hope."
i miss eric.
my dinner: a veggie burger and a bowl of creamed spinach.
i watched "the phantom of the opera". it was absolutely fabulous! emmy rossum is a magnificently talented young lady. i previously had no idea what the plotline consisted of, so i wasn't very enthusiastic about watching it, but i did. it's an extraordinary tale by smashing artist. yay for a new favourite movie!
gucci.
i had 2 weird dreams last night. you can't know them. hah.
eric, this is why you should always wear your glasses!8-) "people who wear contact lenses are always weeping and blinking, and their eyes turn red, as though their mothers has just died. you want to go up to them on the street and say, 'there, there,' and maybe give them some money." haha for dave barry!
the TENANTS (haha!) upstairs just dropped something heavy. the mrs laughed. she laughs a lot. hmm.

upstairs folk

ah, the wonders of an apartment complex--1 brick structure housing 24 senior citizens (next to 3 identical buildings serving the same purpose). let me get this straight: there is nothing disgraceful or even slightly wrong with my grandmother's abode; indeed it is a large and lovely apartment that is very tastefully decorated. but, it is not for me. yes, there is a keen sense of privacy behind each ribbony hat adorned door, but i still don't like it. i need my space (remember my hatred of 3 different roommates in 1 year?). anyway, footsteps resounding above my head and belonging to people i do not know (nor do i care to know) annoy me. and, as if that weren't bad enough, every time that i walk into the back room (where i sleep here!), i hear a conversation. last evening, this is what i heard echoing through the white plastery ceiling:
woman: "i used your deodorant this morning."
man: "oh?"
woman: "yes, and the damn thing broke!"
there was some laughter and more talking, but i turned on the water to drown it out. (pun intended!) now, i'm as curious and nosy as the next person (prolly more than a lot of next people...), but this is completely too much.
this morning the lovely couple above me was stomping around in preperation for a trip to visit mary-ann. i suppose that this holiday is a big deal after they've been sitting around in their back room yelling for 48 hours. nevertheless, they ventured out at 2 this afternoon. apparently, mary-ann lives 3 hours away (in people-under-60 driving time, i'd estimate 45 minutes), because mr & mrs upstairs are arriving at 5. mary-ann has a daughter who needs to be picked up from dance at 5, so she is leaving the door unlocked for the upstairs people to get in if she's not back yet. when she arives home with this daughter, the upstairs people will award her with a present--i heard the mrs tell the mr not to forget it. i don't know where mr mary-ann will be this evening, but i'll presume that he'll be out squandering their money away. he does this often. (mary-ann is very hard-working and responsible, but her man is no good.) poor guy probably just told mr & mrs upstairs to shush to a bit one night when they were sleeping above him...maybe even for 3 long, exasperating nights. anyway, i don't really know why he is disliked, but i know all of that other stuff because i spent 20 minutes back in the room this morning getting ready and stuff. and, eavesdropping (as if i had a choice in the matter!).
so, i told my grandmother about her neighbors' going-ons, and she thought this was a riot. she wanted to know everything i heard about them. we laughed, and this she said that the woman would be mortified if she knew i could hear her. i think maybe i'll slide a note under their front door. "dear tenants, please avoid sharing deodorant. and, please quit stomping. thank you, a friend of the pope." no, i'm not the pope, but mentioning him makes it sound like it's coming from a higher authority, so they'll listen. and, yes, their last name really is tenant. how insanely ironic is that?!

pizza.

pizza: n. flat round base of dough baked with toppings of tomatoes, cheese, onions, etc.
that is what my good ol' oxford has to say about pizza. i have a little more to say about the topic. pizza is not simply a base of dough with some toppings; rather, it is a staple food group, essential to the sustaining of my life. i grew up eating pizza for a meal about 3 times a week on average--and, i still do; if not more often now. yet, i am not sick of it--not even a little bit! pizza is so good! i do believe that is my favourite food, and i sympathize with all of you people who don't eat it at least every other day. remember the little caeser's "pizza! pizza!"? that little guy definately knew what he was talking about. whether it's from a little, local yokal pizza joint or an accredited national chain, pizza is just plain good!
here are the top 10 pizza in the tri-state area:
10. sjhs lunch pizza (every wednesday w/ a chocolate milk!)
9. chuck e. cheese pizza (was it really the pizza, or just the thrill of the visit?!)
8. s'barros pizza ("a slice of cheese w/ a small caeser salad, please")
7. my mom's homemade pizza! (and her breadsticks!!!)
6. defelice brothers taco pizza (i haven't had it in a long time...)
5. pizza hut stuffed crust pizza (not the 3 meat kind, just cheese!)
4. dominos pizza (remember when they had jalapeno sauce?!?? my dad got me an entire case when they discontinued it; i ate it for over a year. i miss it. omg, it was soooo good!!!!)
3. greco's pizza (and, they've got one hot server in there too!;-*)
2. papa john's pizza (yay for some pepperoni that i actually like!)
1. elm grove dicarlos pizza (this needs absolutely no explanation...)

and, here are the bottom 5 pizza's that i've had:
5. little caeser's pizza (st. clairsville, oh)
4. enzio's brick oven pizza (elm grove, wv)
3. wphs lunch pizza (wheeling, wv)
2. frankie's pizza (near mt. vernon, oh)
1. geno's pizza (elkins, wv)
yup. don't eat any of those unless you're going into pizza withdrawal. on the other hand, none of them are totally unedible, so go right ahead and have some if you need it (that is, if you haven't had pizza in at least a week). my dad has supported his family for many years with a pizza business (as has eric's daddy!), so, obviously, it is the best thing ever.

profit!

i hate the wheeling park commission human resources office! they are the most unorganized group of people i've ever dealt with. seriously, where is it acceptable to run an office like that?! i know of no other business that would put up with this. why does the park? sure, they're really nice and friendly and stuff, but they aren't doing their jobs.
i made a spanish cd. yay!
why is it cold?!?!?!?!?!?! i hate the cold too.
i called my landlord about getting my deposit back. (the deposit that i should have gotten 2 weeks ago...) anyway, he was very nice about it and apologized for not getting it to me sooner. that was surprising. plus, i looked at my lease and found out that i'm getting a 100 more back than i'd thought. hooray!
i'm supposed to babysit little kids that i don't know tonight. i haven't babysat anyone in FOREVER! but, it should be fun; i like little kids!=)
only 10 more days until the beach!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
eric, i loooooooooooooooove you!
i picked some flowers on sunday, but they were really wilty within 5 minutes. by the time i got them home, they were about gone; i put them in water anyway. now they're perky and happy. i've never seen flowers like this. they're happier in water than they were in dirt! i suppose it's sensible; i'm much happier in water than dirt too.

unison.

i'm drinking orange juice. it looks pretty in my pink flower glass.
i had a dream that i was at this wedding reception with my dad. i think my mom was there too, but i don't know. anyway, i was drinking punch out of this big goblet thing. they were supposed to be very elegant, but mine was like melting. i didn't know what to do, and my dad was explaining how they probably had the really expensive glasses and wanted more, so they ordered fakes that were only half real glass. i forget what the other stuff mixed w/ the glass was, but it sucked.
a typical catfish has 27,000 tastebuds. isn't that weird?
tonight is a full moon!!!!! it's also victoria day in canada!
i'm almost out of vitamins! oh, nooooooooo! i only have 13 left. i MUST get new ones before these ones are out. if i don't take a vitamin every single morning, i die.
eric and i watched "national treasure" last night. it's very, very, very unrealistic...but, interesting.
so, apparently, there are these people who want to put billboards into orbit around they earth. they say that if they make them big enough (like GIGANTIC!), then they will be visible to people on earth. first of all, don't we see enough advertisements without having them float past the stars in our night sky?! and, secondly, it's just a stupid idea. they would have to be huge and muy expensive...why not just buy a bunch of normal billboards for that price? anyway, as of right now, the government isn't letting them do it.
i can't wait for daycamp to start!=) it'd better be really hot this summer.
thing 1 is still vanilla scented. yay. he's so good.
laundry time!!!!!!!!!!! ahora mismo.

my day.

i woke up bright & early this morning still breathing and slightly functioning. i was glad for that...for the breathing part, anyway!
we went to church, and i got to work in the kids' classes for both the sunday school and service hours. yay! here were some of my favourite quotes of the day:
*as cole squirts gobs of glitter glue all over his paper*
teacher: "stop squirts blobs of that on your paper; it won't dry in time"
cole: "but, i like blobs!!!"
*as story begins*
teacher: "today we're going to hear a story about philip..."
victoria: "hey, sleeping beauty's prince was named philip!"
tanner: "i can hear my baby brother!"
teacher: "yes, but this is a different philip. he was in the desert."
seth: "i went to the desert in texas once!"
jamison: (yelling and shoving a plastic star into his eye) "look, i have a magic star on my eye!"
teacher: "don't do that; it'll poke you in the eye and we'll have to take you to the doctor."
jamison: (throwing the magic star onto the floor) "i don't like the doctor; he has shots!"
tanner : "hey, i can hear my baby brother crying!"
*during activity time*
adison: "can we sing the clapping song again?" (the one we've already sung 3x)
teacher: "no, we're going to make scrolls."
victoria: "if my stamp doesn't work this time, i'm going to step on it with my foot!"
me: "well, it's working, so you don't have to do that!"
victoria: "if you look at me like that one more time, i'm going to make you a C-A-L-L-E-N!"
me: "oh....???"
seth: "hi, i'm seth!"
me: "well, hi there, i'm tiffany!"
seth: "i'm 4 years old--almost 5 next year!"
cole: "well, she's 20! that's 14 years older than me; i'm 6! know what? i got a new gi-joe for my birthday!"
haha, okay, that's enough. anyway, i completely love the randomness of little kids!
i have a rug burn. and, a twizzler.
after church, i ate a hersheys chocolate nugget. i've never had a non-chickeny nugget before. it was interesting. i haven't had a chicken nugget in a long time.
i had a giant underwear mishap today while i was walking up the stairwell. i don't think anyone saw, but it would have been a lot worse if i'd been walking any more than 5 feet.
timmy was sitting on a chair in my mom's office. matthew walked in the door, pushed him and the chair completely over sideways, and walked back out. timmy fell on the floor. i laughed really hard, and my ears turned pink. 'twas funny.
jereme smith on my transferring to bethany: "that really relieves me! morgantown is like a hole of sin; i can just sense it as i enter the city..."
there was a luncheon after church. it was actually pretty good.
aaron couch's mom talked to me for a long time today. his sister too. they're nice.
"some people think that being young means laying around on the couch doing nothing." i agree.
i have one more letter in my full name than eric has in his.
i'm listening the the "chicago" soundtrack. hooray!
when i was little, the top layer of potpie was my favourite. one time, my mom made 3 potpies to freeze, while they were cooling, she went somewhere else in the house. i ate the tops of all 3. i told her that the cat did it. she didn't believe me and said that the cat would've eaten the meat part, not the tops.
i think that i'll make a powerpoint. woohoo for me!
"and, that's showbiz, kid."

immaculate.

happy armed forces day!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
my stomach hurt yesterday. my tooth hurts today.
last night, i went and saw "monster in law". it was alright.
summer is my favourite.
timmy and matthew are wearing matching shirts. hah.
my whole family left me today, so i took a shower because the house was really cold. when i got out of the shower, i noticed that thermometer said that it was warmer outside than inside. so, my freezing was in vain. i opened all of the windows, and now i'm not cold any longer!
i'm wearing an "i heart ny" shirt. i've never been to new york, but i really want to go. i only want to go to nyc, not the rest of the state.
i ate leftover pizza with banana peppers for lunch. it was yummy. banana peppers on reheated pizza are my favourite.
13 days until the beach!!!!!!!!!!!
i watched "lilo & stitch". yay!
last night, i found a giant bug crawling on my floor right before i wanted to sleep. i couldn't mash him because i don't mash bugs that will crunch (and he was definately crunchy!). and, i couldn't put him outside because it was dark and a ghost would get me. i made him walk into a cardboard box, and then i set it in the hallway. i was going to move it this morning, but it's gone. i wonder who took it...and, i wonder if he knew that there was a giant bug inside.

hmm...

The Keys to Your Heart

You are attracted to those who have a split personality - cold as ice on the outside but hot as fire in the heart.

In love, you feel the most alive when your partner is patient and never willing to give up on you.

You'd like to your lover to think you are stylish and alluring.

You would be forced to break up with someone who was emotional, moody, and difficult to please.

Your ideal relationship is open. Both of you can talk about everything... no secrets.

Your risk of cheating is zero. You care about society and morality. You would never break a commitment.

You think of marriage as something precious. You'll treasure marriage and treat it as sacred.

In this moment, you think of love as something you can get or discard anytime. You're feeling self centered.

i'm going to the beach soon!!!!!!!!!!!!!! ...sorta.
yesterday, i went to alison bell's wedding. it was sweet. years early, but sweet.
if i sing like the seagull in "the little mermaid", then the fuzz runs around the house really fast. i think i'll watch that movie later; i like it.
eric and i went and saw "the interpreter" last night. it was REALLY good! and, the renovated theatres are nice.
i'm wearing glasses with a fake nose and moustache right now. cuteness. and, you'd never recognize me in this glorious disguise. i think that they make me look very intellectual.

the brother is throwing cookie dough into the air and trying to catch it in his mouth.
i sneezed. bless me, please.

shampoor, eh?

my mom and i took the van to the carwash today to clean out the inside because matthew spilled root beer on the carpet a few days ago. i vaccuumed out all of the loose dirt with the incredibly suctioned sucky thing. it made my fingers hurt. then, she used the carpet shampoo contraption to scrub it with strawberry scented foam. the large sign on the machine called it a "shampoor". first of all, i wasn't really aware that to shampoo something was a verb. yes, people say it, but shouldn't it really be to wash/clean something using shampoo? i don't really know about that one. but, secondly, if shampoo is, indeed, a verb, wouldn't the one who shampoos be a shampooEr? think about it: shampoor vs. shampooer. it makes more sense my way.

note: here's what my lovely oxford dictionary has to say about the subject...
shampoo- n. a substance used to wash hair, carpet, cars, etc.
v. the act of cleaning something with shampoo.
okay, so shampoo is a verb. but, i'm still right about the -er thing!!!!lol

i LOVE the fuzz!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! ...he's just so darn cute!!!=)

i'm still alive!

look, i survived a day at cedar point! be proud of me; i rode all of the scary, scary roller coasters!!! i shook, and i wanted to cry, and my stomach did that terrible, topsy-turvy thing, and i told eric that i hated him....but, i rode the roller coasters! best of all, i don't really hate eric, and i'm very glad that i went yesterday. i'm definately not as afraid of roller coasters as i was--something that i never thought would happen. just a lil stupid motivation, and i'm all set! haha.
eric's screenname is online on my buddylist, but it says that he's not online when i im him. weirdness.
i am exhausted.
tonight, i dined and took a lovely evening stroll with the pope. it was an endearing experience. we made some new "friends" on the walking trail. yay! and, SAVE THE WATERFRONT!!!!!!
*yawning!!!*
my brother called me simply to ask what the days of the week are en espanol. i chuckled at him.
hello, folks! (that was from mel; she typed it all, except i held down the shift key for her to do the exclamation point...)

read this!

YAY FOR BEING IN WHEELING FOR A LONG TIME!!!!
yesterday was mothers' day. my mom laughed really hard at the card i gave her. be jealous.
a few days ago, my brothers trapped me in the hallway. they stood on both sides of me really close and looked at each other over my head and laughed becuase i was short. weirdness. my little brothers are giants.
i'm almost finished unpacking/reorganizing/rearranging my bedroom.
i have another deadly disease. it's making me cough and sniff and wheeze a lot.
i'm going to cedar point on wednesday! we're leaving tomorrow afternoon, so don't expect another blog until at least thursday night when i get home. as a matter of fact, don't expect another blog ever, because i will, most likely, be thrown from some outrageously high ride at some outrageously high speed and plummet to my death. you are all invited to my funeral; i'll have cake and ice cream afterward!
hooray for the fuzz!!!!!!!!!!!
timmy is petting a dog. he always pets stray dogs.
i bought some new tennis shoes today! they are very clean and bright. AND, the three stripes on the side are sparkly and pink! woohoo! i don't paticularly like tennis shoes, but these are definately the best ones in the world! i'll wear them...at least until i die wearing them on wednesday.
i finally got to see my grandma yesterday. yay! she is funny.
summertime makes everything better. well, mostly everything.
i think that i'm going to tutor timmy in spanish this summer. it will be fun...until we both get bored and quit, anyway.
i am still mad about this marriage business for my peers. people who get married in this day & age at really young ages...well, i won't go on; i don't feel like starting a feud.
i've eaten in a restaurant for 3 of the last 4 meals that i've eaten.
wheeze.
i got to play with a baby yesterday. he was fun. but, i only held him for a little while because i didn't want to give him my disease. sigh.
i want to go to the beach!

school's out!!!!!!!

happy cinco de mayo!!!!
i'm done with wvu! it's bittersweet...kinda like chocolate chips. anyway, this year went by really quickly. it's weird; i'm halfway through college now! i used to despise changes with a passion. i hated everything that changed my daily routine in any way--especially huge things, like school changes, etc. but, i'm getting better. i suppose it's part of growing up, which is mostly what life is.
my bedroom is very ugly without my lovely posters and beautiful curtains. now it's dull and brown--less than 24 hours from now, it will be empty too!
stuffiness.
i only slept for 3 hours last night. i also took a one hour nap this afternoon. seriously, it was exactly one hour; 4:03-5:03.
i got to eat ice cream after my last final today! woot. when i was little, my mom always took me to get ice cream after school on the very last day. it was fun. i'll bet she still takes matthew.
i miss eric.
i have a lot more stuff to pack than i thought. how did i fit all of this stuff in this bedroom? ...how am i going to fit it in my bedroom at home!? i have full furnishings for 2 whole rooms. oh well. i need to do laundry and finish packing.
how do you get that lonely?
i took my spanish linguistics final this morning at 8am. death to 8am finals. but, i wasn't sleeping anyway, so it was okay. i think i actually did alright on it--maybe not quite an a, but definately a b! i totally passed spanish linguistics class!!! over half of class speaks spanish as their native language, and the rest are all spanish grad students! i'm so proud of myself!!! that was a damn hard class.
mothers' day is soon!!!!!
i can't wait to go home and see the fuzz!!!=) he'll be so excited!
i kinda had a suckass week this past week. but, it's over now! hooray!
my dog ran away again this morning. he does so every other day. maybe he has a schedule. anyway, his people are home and he hasn't been howling as much. yay! tomorrow is the last day that i'll see him. sadness.
basta por hoy.

...

here's a nice and depressing entry for you:
my throat hurts really badly. i'm sad. finals week makes me angry--i'm too stupid to take my finals right now. but, i can't study. i'm lonely. and, i'm sorta peeved.
i want so many things, but i can't have them. yeeeea....but, to top it all off, i don't really know what i want anymore! i thought i knew exactly what i wanted (the basics, anyway!), but now...i don't know. what is wrong with me?!
i'm alive.
i'm bored.
i'm creative.
i'm dreamy.
i'm earnest.
i'm focused.
i'm giddy.
i'm hopeful.
i'm impatient.
i'm jealous.

crest glide comfort plus

i didn't have any exams today. that made me happy. if i were a perfect student, i would have studied all day. i'm not a perfect student--i went to the mall! but, i bought my mommy a mothers' day present, so it was excusable!
the pope and i cooked dinner together tonight. it was a delicious smorgasboard of chickeny side dishes. hooray! then, accompanied by danielle, we ate and watched television.
television: american idol...scott needs to die. and, we watched "dawn of the dead"....um?!?!? it was pretty pitiful. i HATE scary movies, and normally don't watch them without eric to keep me safe(lol!), but that was more funny than scary.
anyway, i had a lot of fun tonight...but, i didn't study, gosh dern it! nevertheless, i relieved stress, which is a very important componant of my get lots of a's on my finals routine!=)
i have sunny delight!!! i haven't had sunny d in like 10 years! it's yummy...sorta tastes like that tang that nobody else used to drink for breakfast!

earl had to die.

happy mayday, all!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
i studied for a very long time today--over 4 straight hours of sitting on my lovely striped couch rereading british lit. hooray for britain!
i can't find my lei from friday night. sadness.
i'm going to cedar point in 10 days! now, i only have to manage to get 5 a's on my 5 finals before that....blah. spanish linguistics = hard final!
someone remind me to go to the bank tomorrow. gracias.
last night i made some no-bake cookies. they were gooey...really gooey (um, eric ate one with a spoon!lol). anyway, they sat out all night, and now they're really good! i'm eating one. too bad eric isn't here anymore to have one.
there is no correlation between objective reality and the language we use to describe it. there is always a certain arbitrariness in life.
random fact: people who contracted syphilis in the 18th century drank lead to cure themselves--and, it worked (for the syphilis...)! it slowly killed them of lead poisoning, but, you'll have that.
alltel sent me a text message to enter to win a free house. yay!
eric, the cool points are out the window, and you've got me all twisted up in the game!;-)
professor nelson quote from the middle of his brit lit lecture on friday: "tiffany, what happened to the guy we used to see down by the mon river? and, tiffany says, 'oh, he's dead; let's go to his funeral!' and, we go--'oh, look, he's being carried in now!'"
another: "when you get to be my age, you'll read the obituaries every day to see if any of your friends are dead. and, they're all the same--'byron left behind a loving wife, 4 children, 7 grandchildren...' and, then they get even more sappy--'he entered heaven to be with jesus...' now, i'd like to see something different for a change! maybe, 'because of his faults, byron didn't go home to see jesus; he is now roasting in the flames' i'd love it--maybe i should start writing my own obituary!"
one more: "and, when i'm on my death bed, you are all invited come on over and take your favourite book from my collection!"
now, can't you see why i love this man?! he's funny...and british! (what more could i want in an english teacher?!) yea, straight a's, but i've got that with him! he also wrote me a lovely recommendation for bethany. i'll miss him. *sigh* all of the recent quotes were about death b/c that's we're studying--he's not an especially morbid fellow. well, maybe in a funny way, but, aren't we all?=)
this is a very long blog...especially compared to yesterday's!
"ya, papa!" *chuckles*
