All I can say is "Wow". That would take a lot of time, and the design is so simple and beautiful. I am deeply impressed. It would be an interesting project to undertake - something a lot like the Web Design and Content Writing class that Dr. Morgan teaches.

Snowballs From Heaven

I was walking through the blizzardy snow yesterday after my office hours (3pmish) and as I walked up the steps into my dorm, I suddenly felt eyes on me and I looked up. A couple male residents were holding up a snowball, ready to launch it at me.

Now - for those that know me - I have that bubbly personality and am usually a happy person. But, I must have had the glare of death, because the boys backed up from the window with such a surprise on their face. I looked down one window and another RA was standing there and I asked her what was going on and she told me there had been some guys throwing snowballs at unaware passer-byes. I decided to make sure it didn't happen anymore, so I stood there in my soaked shoes and cold toes for about twinety minutes. They showed up at the window after about 2 minutes and they backed up as soon as they could. When I saw that, I yelled up at them to close the window and LOL, they did. Whoot - the plusses of looking older than I am! I have a suspicion that they believed I may have been one of the older workers at the college. Heheh - you can't throw a snowball at someone that could be old enough to be your mother! Muhahaha

Of course, if I had been their mother, i woulda been about 11 or something. Gah!

But, that was my excitement for yesterday. Crazy snowdays!

Well, the past weekend went way too fast! I barely got anything done but I did get some fun thrown in there.

Right now, it is 7pm, and I'm drinking a cup of coffee - I plan on taking the rest of the night to grade papers. I have a nice sturdy stack that I need to tackle. I know it shouldn't take too long this time - hopefully.

Aspen rented Down With Love, and I highly recommend the movie. Usually I don't look for those kinds of movies (dunno why not) and this time I was highly impressed. Very naughty humor but not overly so. Funny as heck. Go rent it out guys, it's fun!

Through User Friendly link - I founf their Link of The Day was quite fun to play with. Check out the Professor Snape Detention Generator. As I was told after using spells against a student,

"Ayleen,
Accidents will happen, but even so you must learn to be more careful.

I am sure that an evening spent in my dungeon, picking the legs off a few barrels of spiders will help to focus your concentration.

S. Snape"

Arrrrrr!

Red Anne Flint

Passion is a big part of your life, which makes sense for a pirate. Like the rock flint, you're hard and sharp. But, also like flint, you're easily chipped, and sparky. Arr!

Whoa, a post!

I finally noticed that I was neglecting the blog for too long and will finally get back to my old project.

Was watching the "I Love 80s" special on VH1 and found out I started remembering things at 1983. I definitely remembered the Wrath of Khan, Star Trek movie - I believe Mom and Dad took us to see it in the theatre.

Another of my fish died, poor Frodo. That now leaves me with the last of the Hobbits names - Bilbo. He is a pretty active fishy and I feel strongly that he may outlive the others now.

German has become a favorite among my classes. I love the language! It's so much fun and interesting to learn the new words. Especially trying to pronounce them - such as Psychologie. What fun!

I've been planning out the College Writing II course I'll be teaching next semester. I want to incorporate Fairy Tales and hope I can come up with an engaging class that students will enjoy, along with myself!
