It's That Time!

Last blog of the year. ::sigh::

I'm not even gonna lie. I'm glad this year is coming to a close. It's been a pretty rough one for me. In some ways it feels like we just started, and in some ways it feels like we've been here for 2,304 months. Do you feel that way too or is it just me?

One of the things I like to do at the end of the year is post some of the strange things that have come out of some of our mouths in this room.

Things like (from my mouth):

1) Zachary! Nobody cares how you feeeeeeeeeel. This is the REAL world. How you feel doesn't matter. Only your mother cares about you!

2) DJ! Stop touching yourself from the neck up!

3) What is going on in here? Trying to have a conversation with you people is like trying to herd cats!

4) Elizabeth! Take your medicine! I'm blaming THIS on you!

5) Me: I don't know what Emily's problem is, other than she's sandwiched between two boys. Curly: Ms. L. That didn't sound good.

6) Rye! Put Cloudy out. He's on fire! Ashley: How's she gonna put him out when she's flaming herself?

7) Birdie! If you keep singing country songs I'm gonna call somebody and have your brother card repossessed!

8) Os! Butt is not better than boobage!

9) I don't care! You don't just get to pirate and ninja your way through life! (Anybody remember who this was directed at?)

10) Black is 100% black.

11) Gary! This is a very famous band called The Beatles. You may have heard of them. They have nothing to do with either Jesus OR McDonalds.

12) (To Gary in the hospital) Hey Gare, you want me to bring you some magazines? People? Truckin? Gary: Only you, Ms. L., would ask me if I want a Truckin' magazine right after I got hit by a truck.


From yall's mouths:

1) I CAN move my upper body that fast, THANK YOU! (Tyler L)

2) You can't spray paint camoflage properly. (Mandi P)

3) I have a friend who makes meth. (Seth R)

4) You could give them laser guns . . . (Daniel M)

5) The whole bus thing does not satisfy me. (Caroline K)

6) I hate eyeballs so much (Mandi P, who was actually saying she hated iBoss so much)

7) Can I get a grade for breathing? (Norma O)

8) So Photoshop is how we get into heaven? Oh crap! (Seth R)

9) I don't watch pony shows (James Y)

10) I like elevators. (Trenton B)

11) It's a structured kind of insanity (Cody H)

12) Os: "Caroline?" Caroline: "What Os?" Os: "Nothing. I just like saying your name."

13) What if some people are horizontal? (Gary B)

14) It's ok Ms. L, I get on my OWN nerves sometimes (OsMan)

15) I like beans. (Neil B)

16) I just recently figured out that TGIF and TGIFridays is the same thing. (Ellen A)

17) His tongue is just so disagreeable (Daniel M)

18) I done did it. (Gary B)

19) Welllllll, I'm certainly no expert on mythological creatures. (Reid P)

20) Stop touching things! (Tobin to Victor in Photoshop)

21) AAAHHHHHHHHHH! (Sam when I hit him with a rolled-up newspaper)

22) OMG Mrs. L. has a stalker laugh (Eli G)

23) Can I play with my magic kit now? (Seth R)

24) Mrs. L! Tiffany! (Birdie)

25) Uh . . . . yeah . . . I don't know what's going on. (Rye K)

26) There's plenty of dinosaurs in the sea (Gary B)

27) I hope I get a quote (Tyler S, who I hope is reading this from California. We still miss you!)


And one day when I didn't seem to be hearing correctly:

1) I hate being so sexy. (Jordy, who was actually saying he hated being dyslexic)

2) I'm gonna get hammered all the time. (Daniel, who was actually telling me he's gonna go camping all the time when he goes to college in central Arkansas)



So for your blog credit this week, I want you to do one of two things: 1) Log in and give me your favorite memory from class. OR 2) Log in and leave a piece of advice for next year's class (ala Ms. Christian).

Talk to me . . .

Hiya Peeps!

Continuing along the house of the future, let's talk about some future kitchen technology.

Back in the day, they thought our kitchens would be WAAAAAAAY further advanced than they are today. I found a you tube video to check out. It also includes more about the Monsanto house:

These videos make me LOL. I don't know about YOU, but I'm ALWAYS that dressed up when I'M in the kitchen. Also, I randomly break out in song and dance.

I do dig that rotation see through oven though . . .

So for blog credit this week, go visit this site.
