My Rebirth

I can officially say I am alive now, and on record as being alive. I guess have been reborn. After a week of arguing back and forth with the unhelpful state lady about whether or not I should get a new birth certificate for FREE because it was clearly not my fault, I finally got to to talk to her manager who was VERY helpful. After proving to her the error did in fact exist, on the original, from 22 years ago, she sent me a brand new one at no charge. And it is so Pretty! My old one was just green. Ugly green, and it had been copied crooked. My new one is multiple colors on paper you can tell they tried to make hard to forge, with raised edges and shiny parts. Much better!

And today I get to experience something new. I don't have to be with any students during 4th period today. And there are many teachers gone sick or on vacation today. There are not enough ladies to sub for them all. So I will be using my free period to substitute for my FIRST time. And, it's a CHINESE Class....

I know I married a part Chinese man, but I don't think that makes me ready for this. We shall see how it goes.

I feel fantastic, and I'm still alive! :) Love the song. O believe me I'm still alive.

Jordan also told me that he tackled you in volleyball tonight. I'm sorry :( I thought his mom taught him better ;)

Yes, he took us both out for the count. Don't worry, I have sufficiently recovered. Ü

I'm glad your birth certificate is nice and pretty like mine, and not ugly like your old one was.

Also, good thing it doesn't say you are dead anymore.

Good and Bad Discoveries of the Week

This week we have discovered the secret to life in Provo!! I am serious, it's the best thing ever, and everyone who lives in or near Provo, must take advantage of this secret to life. 1. Go to the Winsong movie theater 2. Purchase a ticket for "Take" (preferably Matinee) 3. Preferably, do not watch this movie because it is a waste of time. But if you have nothing better to do with yourself, go ahead and watch it. 4. Take your movie stub to the dollar theater located by Costco in Orem 5. Finally, enjoy UNLIMITED free movies at this theater. That's right, I said UNLIMITED FREE MOVIES at the dollar theater. I know this sounds to good to be true, but it is oh so true. I have done it, and it works. Last night, we watched a free Indiana Jones from this movie ticket. It was amazing. The movie Take is pretty worthless, but the reward is priceless. Ok, so on to the bad discoveries of the week. I have recently become aware of the advantages and disadvantages that tag along with...

Cake 2.0

Here is our second attempt at fondant covered, decorated cake. We're still working on getting things smoother looking and stuff. It's a chocolate cake with caramel filling. Unfortunately the caramel didn't turn out quite like it was supposed to. It turned into basically sugar. It's probably because I was lazy and used margarine instead of butter. But it's still sweet and that's what's important right?

Going Away Present

Tomorrow is going to be my last day of work at good old Independent Study. It's kind of sad, but also kind of exciting and scary all at the same time. It's sad because I've been here for so long. This is the longest I've ever had one job, and I have made a lot of really good friends here. It's exciting because I will get to have a lot of time off to do whatever I want during the day! And it's scary because I don't have another job lined up yet. After 6 months of applying and interviewing, I'm still none the better for it. I was lucky enough to have one co-worker who cared enough about me and my departure to give me a going-away present. I don't really know why I'm sharing it with you, but here it is: This is the picture he used as a reference to update mine with: Any resemblance? It took him two days to create this picture. He said I was wise enough to become a General Authority. I told him I would have to be a man for that. So he decided to mak...
