I will sing the song of purple summer...

Today, I gave Chong the scarf I knit for her. I got two hugs, two kisses on the cheek, two lectures on how i shouldn't be spending my money, was asked three times if i really made it myself because it was so nice...and she immediately rushed over to show the manager and then showed it to everyone in the Chinese/Italian Express/kitchen.

I think she liked it :D

I am now working a few different patterns from this book my mom has. Boy, you wanna learn how to do all the different stitches? Make one of these washcloths. I am now a master of knitting two together, the slip-slip-knit...and having to backtrack and redo rows. I'm reeeeeeeally good at that game >.>;;

I just talked to my coops for student teaching (coops = cooperating teachers--the teachers I'll be working with for this exciting foray into the real world o.o). They both seem really nice over the phone. Just hope I make a good first impression when I go to see them...but I'm meeting with Elementary Teacher at noon for lunch--she said she'll introduce me to people and show me around. Then after that I'm going to hop over to the high school and meet Secondary Teacher. Wish me luck, everyone...because next week, I START. I'm excited and nervous--which I'm sure is very normal.

Note to self: find out who the stylist Little Sister recommended is, and make an appointment. I need to get my hair done--something that looks nice and professional, but that even a hair-moron like me can manage to do...and may they teach me how to make it stay in place all day, 'cause I'm pretty sure a ponytail ain't gonna cut it for studen teaching. Also make appointment to get eyebrows done--grin and bear it, Candy-chan, even though you are a wimp and have a major aversion to all things pain.

...I think that is all for now. I might sneak downstairs like a sneaky thing to work on my knitting more--I'm addicted to my needles, I swear :D Take that in whatever context you like, even though only one is correct ♥

Yeah, I would doubt weekend work, too, even though I know nothing about student teaching ^^;. Plus, it's music. Not like they have homework you have to grade.

Hm, I could look into HyVee, but I really don't want to work in food preparation and stuff. I don't know why, I just don't. And I may have a problem with the onions if they stink bad enough XP.

You'd be amazed at how much is allegedly changing in music. At least, that's what PK says. But my own experiences in the classroom have left me kinda thinking that might not necessarily be the case. Guess I'll find out ^^;;

Uh, sweetie? I don't like working in food service. But it's a job. *shrug* Sometimes it's just what you've gotta do to get by. Besides, it's not like it's a career or anything--just getting some extra money together :D
