28th of August - Thursday
1) Oh man.. so in class, for my ASL 1 group, I was writing some grammar up on the board. I was TRYING to write "head tilts forward" and I forgot the l.... we all had a good laugh about that, lol.
2) For an activity for both my ASL 1 & 2 classes I had them draw a name from a bowl and they had to meet their "new" classmates. One kid drew my nickname from high school (Shaniqua) and asked if it was his name for the rest of the year. I signed, "no," and he frowned and said, "But I got such a great one!" LOL So I told him if he wanted...
3) My junior high kids were SO awesome today! I wrote up the steps for an activity we were doing (in ASL) and then wrote, "NO TALKING" and they did it! (My jhs kids two years ago weren't able to ever do that so I was very pleasantly surprised.) What a stellar bunch! (Not that the others weren't ... js)
4) I am seeing my weight loss and it's really exciting. (For those of you who have been in a long campaign, and suddenly you SEE what you've done.. awesome!)
5) A friend and I walked around the canyon - it was nice.

Wednesday the 27th
1) Classes went really well. We ended up playing a Jeopardy pronunciation game the whole time (the game I made was MASSIVE). At first I was thinking of cutting it short, but pronunciation is so important that I figured it was appropriate to dedicate an hour to it. (Plus we're really not going to focus on it again - at least not specifically.)
2) My friend and I worked out together again. (She was a little late, but we still got to chat and do some cardio together.)
3) I was able to go watch Emilia and Tara's soccer game.
4) I watched an episode of Free! with Abbey and Tara.
5) I finally got to see Cynthia!!!

The longest day
(Just long because I have classes and meetings all day.)
1) My jhs students were CRACKING me up today! They couldn't figure out if I was Deaf or hearing in spite of me having told them I was hearing. They finally settled on "dumb." I can't wait to see their mouths fall open when we start our Spanish term!
2) My ASL classes went really well (though once again my ASL 2 is WAY chattier than my ASL 1).
3) My French class was AMAZING. I loved the whole time! It was so great to speak French and hear French (of course I made them speak and take notes, mwahahaha).
4) I'm feeling a little more on top of the things going on in my life.
5) I am ready for tomorrow. :)

4) Got to play some piano.
5) I got to sleep in - which I really needed and it helped my tonsils go down.

Tuesday & Wednesday
So, I was supposed to go on a hiking and camping trip with a group of 40 high school girls. Well, the weather was so bad they pushed it back to Wednesday. Then that huge storm happened (which was really cool) and they decided we would do an overnighter at the school from yesterday to today and a day hike today. Yesterday during the night I kept waking because of the storm and because of how swollen my tonsils were. I had ZERO voice yesterday. It was pretty funny because I went to the school and had to sign to all the girls and only two of them knew ASL. At one point I had to explain a game and I got a translator. It didn't go as well as it could have... but still - we made do! Also, they told me not to come on the hike. (Which was probably wise as going to the gym on Wednesday - I kept almost throwing up from pain and just physical exertion while I was sick. Still, worked out and am sore today ~ maybe mostly from being sick but also my workout! ~ so things are good.)

7) I had a very delicious dinner.

Yesterday
1) I got a lot more done towards my workshop and got some good feedback on what I've submitted thus far. (In fact the facilitator said something along the lines of, "Is this your first MYP Unit ever? It's really wonderful!" YAY!!! Hard work is paying off!)
2) I got to spend time with a friend.
3) Three of us got into a debate, lol, and it was just really fun to have that kind of intellectual and critical type of discussion (critical meaning thinking critically not criticizing). I was complimented afterwards on my contributions. :D (I am a smart cookie!)
4) I also got to have a discussion about literature which was unexpected and really cool.
5) I had an awesome dinner (homemade pepperjack mac and cheese with whole wheat pasta).

Sundance
1) I had the Sundance cabin to myself
for a few hours! (No one else opted to stay at first then my principal came
back with family.)
2) I made it through the full day of meetings (and now to get through tomorrow).
3) No one said anything when I laid down on the floor (I got really sick). (It was slightly mortifying to do but I was so seriously ill that lying down helped me a lot.)
4) I have big plans to have a jetted bath later. :)
5) I am currently watching some Food Network (I LOVE cooking shows) and had some hot chocolate (which I almost never drink).

Wednesday August 6th
1) ... My tire was flat AGAIN (same one) and they found three new holes. Luckily I had bought the coverage before so they gave me a new tire for "free."
2) I went ahead and purchased new coverage, JIC, and that was only $14.
3) My workout was really nice (and it's so nice that my vertigo has stopped).
4) Speaking of vertigo, I figured out why I was getting it so often - ear infection.
5) Treated my ear infection (sorry if I already mentioned this before) - and I've been feeling tons better. :D

Sorry I fell so far behind. This week was CRAZY busy.
1) Papa noticed my flat tire ahead of time so I could get it fixed before work.
2) My papa has an air compressor so we were able to put air in my COMPLETELY flat tire and I got down to the place that sold me my tires.
3) They fixed the flat for free.
4) Work was really great.
5) I am making more and more friends at Vivint. It's a wonderful place for which to work!

A special ambien treat!
I took another ambien video last week but ... well the wardrobe is not appropriate for posting so I will instead give you the transcription:
(Note: Simone came over earlier that day and took a [one] paper down off the wall she'd accidentally left up. I made a joke about it, "What an eyesore it's been! Actually I didn't even notice it... I mean I saw it but it didn't register, if that makes sense?" She took it down anyway and threw it away.)
Hello it's me and I think it's re[hiccup]cording this time. Somebody keeps giving me sss the (slow blink) hiccups. And I can't make them stop (worried face) and [hiccup] and I think they're tied to something else because (shaking head) they're not normal. Um I keep [hiccup] weaving all around but people keep taking our papers and we're trying to put it together our papers and look (turns camera so you can see the blank walls except for the one and only poster I have had up for a couple years in this room) all the papers are gone [hiccup]. (turns the camera back to face) And all the people are gone and I can't get rid of my hiccups (sniff). I don't know what's going on [hiccup] (blink). I.... gotta go look somewhere.
Hope that gives you a good idea of the funny/crazy video. :)

The weekend and today
(Weekends are when I'm scheduled the most hours and I have a hard time being able to write - I may skip them from now on...)
1. I got myself some soft serve ice cream because I didn't get to spend time with a friend like planned.
2. I still can't get over how great my car stereo is now. I never want to leave my car when I go somewhere!
3. I've been practicing guitar and already seeing improvement. It's so wonderful to have direction and solid things to practice that I understand and can see how they are going to benefit me.
4. I got sick out in the heat, but I didn't throw up! (Had to ice my feet and neck - BUT I didn't puke!)
5. I finally got my tithing ready to turn in (oops - it's from the entire summer, lol - had it in a pile in my room and added to it each time I get another paycheck).

EEEEEEEEEE!!
1) I got myself a present... a sub and an amp for my car. They're SO AWESOME! Even using it at half (like I was told to break it in) is SO GREAT!
2) I went to the temple this morning. :)
3) I have plans for tomorrow - which is exciting because I usually don't make plans, lol.
4) Work is going to be epic. I say so.
5) I am doing well so far in my certification class. It started out stress-fully for me as I'm the only one posting (so I'm putting myself way out there). However, that means I have now set the bar and the facilitator has been giving me positive feedback.
