Did you hear the good news???

I GOT A JOB!!!!




Let the celebration's began!!!! 
So I'll be teaching at Evanston come the fall. Don't know what I'm teaching, where I'm teaching, but I got a job so that's all that matters.....

I actually found out a couple of days ago, but then it hit me I had not published on my blog. so here ya go. 
Now the only thing to do is to look for places to day. 
I kinda want to stay in E-town for the summer just so I can get comfortable around here. And I just don't want to go back to K3. Honestly I'd rather move out as soon as possible....yeah......

But now all I gotta worry about is actually graduating. I'm so relieved. Thank the Lord!
Alright that's all, I don't want to type in more than that.....

so dance for me. 
I gotta job.
much love.

so after this blog post I gotta turn off this internet

because tumblr is my new addiction....
i just about reblogg everything
and if you don't know what that means. get a tumblr. (here's mines)

anywayz
I have my second interview with tomorrow with Evanston with the principal.
Yeah, I'm nervous but I'll be fine.....#praythatigetit.......
I really want a job before I graduate...
and pretty much I haven't been applying too that many places....so yeah

-----------------------------------------
besides that today is Easter Resurrection Sunday.
here's a video about the story using 21st century social media

Follow from Igniter Media on Vimeo.


pretty kool, huh?
but this is totally how it happened. like lately I've been reading the Book of Mark, and like Jesus was Celebrity, people came from everywhere to see him, to hear him speak, to be healed by him. So I wouldn't be surprised if twitter existed back in the day, Jesus would be a trending topic.

---------------------------------------
other than that. I'm truly not up too much. Waiting until June 17, when I can go live my life without the restriction of classes, papers, professors, assignments. What a great day that shall be.

i'm really just procrastinating through this post......
that's why imma have to shut this internet off.....urgh...
but not until after Random Picture Time!


yes we are everywhere...
i mean I'm not a ninja.

I mean since I'm not being productive

It's seems with every passing week of classes, it becomes harder and harder for me to do school work.
i really don't like doing these assignments.....
and I really have no motivation....I literally understand maybe how my student feels about homework and assignments......but they just don't do it.
I mean I'll finish the assignments soon enough....or late enough....depends on how ya thinking about it....
I really just wanna be done....I've probably said this on every post, but that's cuz it true...

But really I don't want to talk about that....so new topic.
------
I got a NEW PHONE. It's a Motorala charm with T-mobile.

 I love it. It's touch screen, but still had the keypad so I can type stuff. Did I say I love it?. It's so cool. The only thing I probably shouldn't gotten my own account, I didn't think about it. Because of course I had to have internet and then my parents said, 'we ain't got no money.......etc. etc.'. But I'll probably do that once I get my job and stuff.

speaking of which, I need to figure that out. I should hear back from Evanston this week hopefully. In the meantime, I should've been filling other applications, did I? nope. oh wells. But I finally made a list of schools to apply to, which I can now do. Aren't lists great?

Ummmmm idk what else to talk about I really just don't want to do school work, urgh..

Random Picture Time




I feel the same way about porkchops.

yeah.

Can we bring back music from the 90s?

So it all kinda started with SWV  last week. I've gone into a 90s R&B music craze. I mean when you compare the music of today to the music then, it's great because people actually used to sing. Music was based on talent. And the songs, had more groove and soul to them.

Wells, I got this bright idea, to just talk about my favorite artists from the 90s, basically whatever I want to say about them. I would've start with SWV, but in my 90s crazed I came across, one of the greatest girls groups of the 90s:      
EN VOGUE. so this first post will be about them.


A lil' history 
(yes my main source is wikipedia, shoot me)

They were formed through auditions in 1988, which is surprising you would assume they were related,  bestest friends, or somethin like all the other girl groups but they were not. The two guys (Denzil Foster and Thomas McElroy) wanted to recreate girl groups from the 50s/60s, originally it was supposed to be a trio, but one of the girls was so great or something [lies, lies, lies].

But really the great thing about this group is that they all can sing lead, which provided for some really great harmonies, melodies in their songs. The original members of the group were Terry Ellis, Cindy Herron, Maxine Jones, and Dawn Robinson. Basically after one of their biggest song Don't Let Go Dawn left the group for contract issues. That was in 1996, since then they have worked as trio and quartet some time, because Maxine left to focus on her family, but then she came back. The replacement was this lady Rhona Bennett who you might have seen on the Jamie Foxx Show, the one that sang with Jamie and basically almost broke him and fancy up.

Anyhoo, He wasn't until recently that all four the original member were back together 2005, 2008 whichever reunion you want to count as legit. They are currently working on an album to be released this year, but Dawn won't be on it (WTF dawn?).

It's official

I hate school.
I hate assignments.
I hate homework.
I hate reading.
I hate doing math problems.
I hate discussion.
I hate lectures.

Basically I hate classes. 
All I want to do is lay in bed all day, pick my nose, eat a jar of pickles, laugh, fart, and sneeze. And still get A's and graduate. That's all.

But unfortunately such is my life now. Back to being a student. It's a harsh reality. Luckily only 8 more weeks of this crap. Then I becomes an adult, which is scary but it'll be pretty exciting and adventuresome to say the leastest.

Um what else did I want to update about.....
Peanut Butter and jelly sandwiches? 


Turtles?


Swiffers? 


----------------

I mean nothing really interesting is happening. Dang my life's so uneventful now. I need to change this.
while I figure that out, watch this video.



This is video of my vlog, which never quite took off and will never probably again. But really this is hilarious to me still this very day....I am a mess.

so I'mma got do something with my life....
much love

Hey ya'll

so I'm currently NOT reading this stupid Plato book I'm supposed to be reading, that I don't understand, that just getting on my last nerve....so I thought I would update the blog considering.....ya know stuff. 
-------------------
First, NCAA Championship game was last night. If ya didn't know I had Butler in my bracket going to the 'ship. 

like the worst championship game I've seen in like ever. STUPID BUTLER. STUPID BULLDOG. STUPID PAINT. Like I think Butler got one shot in the paint last night (i am right?). STUPID.

how you come dis far into the championship and then just like suck for realzy. like really. I think they were just trying to get my hopes up, making me think I was gonna be all baller and stuff, but then no ya let me down. ya let me down BIG TIME.....so ya know what I'm never playing this stupid bracket thing again.......

nah, but I actually will. It was fun though, I would be willing next time to bet some money in next time. like 2 or 3 cents. ya know how I do....
-----------------------

Second, I have a tumblr now. imtheasauce.tumblr.com. I'm still finding my way on tumblr so things might be a lil raggedy. What's surprising is how much education/teaching stuff there is on tumblr, like teacher use technology?. But it makes feel in the know about teaching. so I'm def posting alot of teacher stuff on there, but also some silly things and other randomness I enjoy. And I'll probably still do longer post on here, cuz I need to ramble and rant somewhere...
--------------------
Third, my new (old?) favorite song prolly for the next 3 or 4 days, maybe even a week. 
Rain by SWV. 

Man, this song makes me miss real R&B, and general music from the 90's. You can't deny the aural pleasure (hahaha) you get  from this chill, soulful music. Press play. 

--------------------
i don't really have anything else to say...I'm gonna try to read Plato,  probably not though....

much love.

Youtube Mania (Long time no see)

Yeah it's back.

1. Oh nana vut is my name? 

 

Two words: A mess.   

Reasons

The glasses 

The hand movements  

Not really knowing the words

She lucky this ain't my jam no mo'. 
*Thanks Khiayah*


2. 2 cute twin babies communicating/conversing/talking in baby language 

 

Umm. Cute! I really wonder what they are talkin' bout. Makes me wish I had some baby translatin' device. Like this could be like talking bout the cure for cancer. But it's probably got something to do with the one on the right missing a sock. Just my ed-jamacated guess.

 

 

3. OVEREXPOSED: REBECCA BLACK

 

I'm sure you know who 'BeccaBlack. and the horribleness that is that FriesDay song of hers. But here's Kinsley giving what I think bestly represent how I felt right after seeing the video for the first time. Enjoy :).  

 

 

4. Jennifer Hudson - Where You At

Love this song. And the video is pretty nice. JHud's representing the Chi nicely. Her voice is amazing. FYI, This song was written by R.Kelly, AND then everything made sense. 

Stop slanging, find a real job a go to work!

 

That's it for now. 

PEACE & CHICKEN GREASE!

sooo... I ramble

hey what up world
just had a nice 30 mins+ walk to kemper.
i guess i like long walks (not necessilarly on the beach though)
but it was cool.

I how was just thinking how many times am I gonna get to do this before I graduate?
it brought me back to freshman year, when I would walk from PARC to Sargent all de time.
And I think about that person back then, and the person I am now.
And it's like wow so much as changed like since then
Like, who was I back then?
Where was I going? What was I doing? (idk)
But it's cool to be older, wiser, a lil' maturer (is that a word?)

any hoo longs walks are nice. 
-----------

first week of classes.
it's weird being the student again. actually it's not weird. I totally hate it. urgh. Like I'm bored instantly. but my last classes should be interesting.

Math 104. Basically playing games all day e'reday. But so much work.
Philosophy of Ed. Gonna get on my nerves. like my last one. But this one I HAVE to take.
Reading in Content Area. Hoping to learn some strategies to teach literacy in classroom, probably most practical one. AND I DON't even have to take it.

Besides that I'm chillin. I'm game for doing anything and everything, BUT school work....
Random thought: I need to really be working on my DP (digital portfolio) right now instead of typing this.

Another random thought: Today's April Fools Day. Yeah.
-------------
Real life is scary. I don't wanna grow up. I wanna stay home and bake cookies with my mama. And be a Toys r us kids. And wear pigtails. And eat ice cream. uhhhh.
But such is the time. So I have nothing but to be ready. So I say here it goes....
------------
Speaking of real life, I  had a job interview at ETHS on Wednesday.
Things went well. It would be nice if I get it. Don't find out until 2-3 weeks from now.
So there it goes.
-----------
Is you okay? Is you? Good, cuz I want to know!
