I jus wanted to inform you guys b4 i proceeded with my blog that i found out in one of my other classes that you SHOULD NOT DRINK HOT LIQUIDS THAT HAVE BEEN SITTING IN YOUR CAR AND HAVE BEEN HIT BY THE SUN. Why u ask? bcuz somthing happens when the sun hits the plastic and gets into the liquid and is cancerious when you drink it. It was said that sheryl crow got her cancer from drinking hot liquids that were kept in the heat. so DO NOT DRINK liquids that you have kept in your car!!!!!!!!! u will get cancer =[
*Ok so 2day in class we as a whole(class) shared our memories our "BAGS". EVERY BODIES were real good and alot of them made me cry. One of the five memories from my bag was my acceptance letter from UNI The University of Northern Iowa. I had applied after getting ready to transfer from a community college to a four year university and one of my friends had told me to apply to this college that was SUPER free if you were chosen for the Bridge Scholarship. This didnt sound right so i wanted to talk to a councelor. So i went to speak with Charley the man n charge of it all. He told me it was free for 2 years as log as i completed my Associates, no matter what degree i was looking at getting so i applied got chosen to GO UP TO IOWA and view the campus for free so i was like how much is the ticket? Nope no cost UNI payed for it all our place to stay our food everyday we were there. The scholarship included free tuition and board. It was AWESOME we stayed a week but the down fall was it was during mid terms so we had to do our work ahead of time. It was sooooo worth it though because when we went the weather was nice it wasnt snowing =[ but it was cold and the campus was HUGE. Every where you went on the campus you saw students with "laker" colors which for me was sweeter! ima laker fan! About 15 students got picked and we had to go through another picking process, to see which students would benefit being placed at UNI i was chosen but i had to turn it down because of family reasons but it was a nice school i would recommend it to anybody who wanted to leave the state and wants a free degree meaning free for 2 years.
i was blessed to even have gotten picked and i was really excited! that was one of my memories!
now im gonna read yous guys ! laTeR =]

This Boii
So there is this boii and my dad didnt approve of him
It was because of this boii's skin color
I told my dad i was dating this boii
My dad didnt speak to me for a while, because he said, "you are supposed to stick to your race. Thats how i grew up".
So i thought of the saying U CANT TEACH AN OLD DOG NEW TRICKS
With this being the way my dad wanted to act i did as i pleased
Because this boii makes my heart go pitter patter, so i am going through some rough patches w/ my dad beause this boii is WORTH IT!
My dad finally decides to meet this boii, or more so my mom making him. Ne way he gets to know this boii and likes him
Im thinking I was not brought up this way, and its freakin 2009 and we have a black president
Whats wrong with this boii being black?
This boii changed my dad's perspective of stereotypes and this boii and i have been going out for 6mnths going on forever!
I LOVE LOVE LOVE this boii alot, with all my little heart because he treats me like a QUEEN, hes caring, loving, kind, gentle, understanding, thinks im beautiful when i look my worst and when my breath is kickin, hes tall, dark, handsome, and a mama's boii, hes my BOYFRIEND!!!!
*All you have to have is faith the size of a mustard seed. With this you can accomplish anything!

Blizzog #3 w/story attached
So lecture that we had b4 our class was canceled, we talked about WRITING! How it's a process and this was familiar to me but it did not really click. But then Dr. Harris was telling us how now a days people SKIP this step or steps and just do all of their revising/editing on the computer. Where as b4 we use to get out paper,pencil and do like three rough drafts before turning in. And this is not saying that the papers have got bad but doing EVERYTHING on the cmptr just makes it harder for the person writing because 9 times out of 10 every body does their papers last minute. So doing this you are just adding more stress to your self when really you do not need the aded stress of editing along side skool, and work. So the first step we talked about in class was how you should start off PRE-WRITING. Which is you organizing your thoughts and using semantic maps, just so you can get a feel on how your paper is going to flow. 2nd was Drafting which is the sloppy copy, you just putting thoughts on paper. 3rd step is Revising this is where you change,add,or delete sentences. On this part your paper will be better if you get two-three opinions also its time to focus on word choice in this section. Such as really look at the words you use because you do not want to use the same words through out your paper. Editing is the 4th step which consist of spelling , capitilizing, punctuation. Last and final step PUBLISH!
*THIS IS MY STORY:
If I won a trip to Outer Space I would be the happiest girl in the world. I have always been fascinated by the planets and zero gravity and actually being able to see with my own eyeshow big our planets really are.
First thing I would do after i win the prize to vo into outer space would be to put that specail white, fluffy suite on my fluffy body.Pounce out of the shuttle while looking and feeling like the Michelin man. Now i know from prior research that i am NOT allowed to take my mask off because there is not enough Oxygen to breath w/out my special suite. After putting the suite on i imediatly get strapped in tight. I can hear the countdown 5...4...3....2....1. Houston we have lift off! I can not see a thing from my little square thing they call a "window". I fall asleep, but i wake my happy self up and see earth. It looks soooo small. i catch myself doing the thumb gesture that Tom Hanks did in th emovie Apollo 13. I am so happy to have won a trip to outer space and i fall asleep again. Traveling takes alot out of ya! =]
I'm woken up by two men unstrapping me from my seat and pushing me out from the space shuttle. Wow what nice people they are! I am not going to let those meanies ruin my trip, nope i am gonna go and try to make new friends. The other dayon PBS (which is a wonderful learning station). Astronomers found that life forms from ice that they found on Mars. I'm not to sure what these life forms look like but my mission is to make new freinds because it is really lonely up here and kinda dark. I am looking at my surroundings and it's red/orangish so to my prediction I'm on Mars. I started walking around this weird planet and i saw a weird object. Usually I would run but i was curious. The object started squirming toward me, It seemed to be a type of worm w/three heads. I found out the "worms" name was Bobby but they like to b called Bob.
I suggested we travel aroudn to the other planets. Bob said they had just the thing (because do not forget, Bob spoke english) they brought our transportation out and we jumped in. I was actually seeing our Solar System and not getting close to the sun or the black hole because I needed to go back and the shuttle radioed me and said they were coming ot get me and take me back to earth in 10 minutes. So i asked my friends if they could drop me off where i first meet them because i had to go back to get picked up and go back to EARTH. So i sadi my good byes and said thnx for everything.
This is what i would expect if I won a trip to outer space.

BLOG #2
so those of you classmates that read my last blog....LOL! you will know that i read the wrong book and wrote the wrong blog! =]
so i erased it and im starting over. SO 2day in lecture we discussed and did a hands on activity about what a circular story is. Dr.Harris read to the class a childrens book titled"If You Give a Mouse a Cookie". Well we were to get into our "home groups" and create our own version of this. With the same set up, but with fill in the blanks and we made a word bank with random words that we called out in class. The question is how do we use it in our classroom, and with other discipline? My answer and opinion to that is say you have a child that is not wanting to read as asked, and you will have those! I would just kick him out..lol jk jk! i would tie in the circular story by letting the child know that in order for he or she to pass the class he must read and if you do not like my rules we can go over the classroom consequences and if not then he or she will lose recess time and while in will do more work or have a parent conference. Notice how i didnt say take himor her to the principle because the principle DOES NOT LIKE for u as a teacher to come to them for minor details, they like to know u are able to handle situations by urself. =]
8some ways we can make reading fun i would say to have a reading center. Such as a reading rug, a library in ur reading area, bean bags, and pillows! Because if i remember ne thing from my reading class i loved to read when we were able to lay on the reading rug and read our book we were assigned or that we were able to pick out if we were good through out the day! That is my in put agree to disagree if u feel...u can its ur opinion! bye guys!
