MONDAY MONDAY

ready for skit today...but found out last night beths dad was going in for surgery...beth I am sorry! but not don't have to bring my equipment to school and leave it in my car so thats good. I think it was today that I found out another week of class....ahhh. more driving. I think I was extremely disappointed. I am just so tired of driving. sometimes my emotions get the best of me and I forget that i need to practice and need the extra week or years of school and allow my human side of hating the drive to interfer with the needing extra week. awesome we are working on more signing. thats what I need. I know that i am all hands on as well and i learn my vocabulary during our different activities or watching others.this is pretty interesting. you know i am not nervous anymore being in front of everyone. at the begining of the year absolutely..but not its like family. and you hate them just like you do with family,.....hahaha just joking..some what! :)

March 17-22

Its sad, but April don't be mad...but I can't remember what happened last week sorry. I will do better keeping up with blogging. Its just when its not in my face I don't think of it. Anyway....I am thinking that I was excited because only like two more weeks of school and stuff. Yippy!! Let me give you a fact for the day though....expecting weather forcast...MONDAY WEDNESDAY FRIDAY..EXPECT SNOW OR RAIN!! WHY BECAUSE THATS WHAT IT SEEMS TO DO ON THOSE DAYS!! TUES THURS SAT SUN WEATHER IS FINE BUT M W F IT HATES ME AND WANTS TO SNOW AND RAIN!!

Spring Break Baby March 10-14

PAY ATTENTION PEOPLE WE HAVE ALL BE LIED TOO!!!! They say" Oh, we give the tools you apply them.", "You'll be fine when you graduate.", "You're improving doing good" WHATEVER!! I can tell you this, I was not prepared! For what you ask, my experience to go observe at a school. what could go wrong you ask? why was it frightening you ask? what were you thinking you ask? Let me tell you. Wrong, I accidently blurted out the answer to a student when they asked me. The student was trying to address the interpreter but we were engaged in conversation, and she was looking at me, so then when the student tried to address her and the she didn't see the student they looked at me and asked the question, opps instead of asking it back or tell them to think for themselves I shook my head, yes! Like duh, thats the right answer. How stupid...now I am "labeled" as the interpreter as if you ask she will tell. Probably not but thats what I thought. It was interesting observing for two days. Meeting different kinds of interpreters and Deaf students amazing. But really I don't feel prepared, I actually feel inadequate. The rest of the interpreters also graduating from the same program just offered else where were really good. Skills and knowledge seem to out do mine by a mile. overall I feel like I have alot to do. why do I feel like we're being lied too, its a joke. I really didn't on the spot remember how to apply what tools we've learned, but probably do to nerves who knows. Who knows??

howdy spowdy march 7th

How sweet it is to be loved by you!!! I don't know why but as I am starting to write this blog that lyrics came to me, so I shall share with the rest of you. I have to sit down by a calander to help my figure out what the heck we have done because I had forgotten to blog. Believe it or not forgetting to talk...usually something I don't forget but ooooopppsss!! Alright so thinking back to this day....LONG DAY! First off I was so excited because it is starting spring break at 7 tonight !! But wow, what a long day. I like Shiloh and she was interesting, I wish she would have presented more, and did more signing. But I think all were so burned out that we just wanted to go home. I appreciate that you held the conference so I and everyone else didn't have to drive the next day but yeah, didn't get home until like after ten. The roads were extrememly foggy and interestate 79 in fog not good together. Concept mapping interesting. But when do you apply it, will you think of it immediately or will it be something that hits you later after finishing interpreting.I don't know. I didn't feel well, I had to poop really bad during the conference...yeah might sound simple, but I have a fobia, don't know if thats spelled right or not but anyway I have hard time pooping in public. wow. But got so bad I couldn't wait for 3 hrs to poop...I HAVE BEEN WAITING ALL DAY!! Needless to say I went to the bathroom before heading home, no one was in there, and everything came out alright!

frid feb 23

oops forgot to post this day...its because I was extremely sick...So was just about everyone else in the Class. April sorry but I don't remember much from this day besides the fact that I thought I was going to be bed written for awhile..how dramatic:) I know the next day I saw Wiley and the Hairy man..didn't get home until 1am...my house flooded then that sunday morning. But at least I rested Friday night when I got home. This cold or whatever kicked my butt for like almost 9days or so.

feb 5

OK today AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH! Class not that bad, nothing really hard..only portfolio to do and then Rubys test FRIDAY!! You know what I am probably less nervous about the test because unlike any other test we basically determine what grade we get because its performance. I am excited. I think overall it will be good for everyone.
Today Rachel, Jody,Charles, and myself got a TB test and then I decided that I like pain so much lets go for a tetanus shot...STUPID I can hardly move my arm today.
NEXT TIME RACHEL TALK ME OUT OF THAT!!

THE END IS COMING THE END IS COMING....LIKE 3 MORE WEEKS FROM SPRING BREAK..I don't know if I am more excited to finally start pursuing my dream or more nervous of failure. You know my grandma really has pushed me to doing this but it has always somewhat been developed within me and I just feel like the dream for interpreting in my life is just getting bigger and bigger.
Soon its all up to me..how good, successful,goal oriented, determined am I. Enough to continue studying and learning on my own when I am finished? That's a scary thought, I don't want to fail myself or even my soon to be clients by not expanding my knowledge and education. So the thought of failure actually is my determination part..is that weird. Thinking I could fail actually keeps me focused and determined to proceed ahead full force.

March 3

Lets tell ya about the weekend. Jeanna, Rachel, and Marci came home with me on Friday for a workshop. SORRY but what happens in St. Albans stays in St. ALbans!!!!! LOL JUST JOKING! LET ME TELL YOU ABOUT ALL THE PARTYING...SIKE. We went to Adoras last cheerleading thing, came back and ate and ate the rest of the evening :) We had good food. We played with the kids and then when they went to bed we played taboo ASL Style. That was fun. Are you kidding I haven't had a sleep over in over ten years. So this was a blast!
Got up and spent all day at a workshop..then I came home and went to sleep same time as my kids y 6:30pm. WOW THAT LONG NIGHT OF TABOO JUST WORE ME OUT :)
First day of this week then spring break yes!!! I feel like this is such a vital week its really freaky. Profolio,tests,I don't even know what else. But I am excited! I don't know if I am more excited about not driving or really being able to start interpreting..I might be the only one excited about that...my poor clients to come:)

FEB29th

Today was good. I missed all week but there wasn't that much to make up. I hate missing the points for class. One more week then spring break....YEAH!!! I am excited about just relaxing and especially not driving, but I don't know how relaxing its going to be or not. I want to try to do some observing within the schools MWF if allowed, but if not trust me lots of things to do here. I want to start working on my backyard. Getting it ready for summer.
Time is flying that four weeks to go..crunch time. We keep hearing that this is crucial and if grades aren't up then can't go to practicum. Nerve racking!!!! So scared not going to pass the course or go off to practicum. But I really am trying to do my best. I think I am juggling overall pretty well with everything I have to do.

Feb 27th

Snowed in!!!!!! I couldn't go..!Trust me I was upset, but did enjoy the day off. There was like 2in or so I didn't drive for days.

Feb 25

Nothing today....schools cancelled
