Samurai

When you drive a car like mine, it's hard not to take advantage of the sheer beauty of it.


Rachel got in on it too.

"We need to make kids understand they have the power to scare people..."

I recently decided that 4 years in Provo was not enough. Why not spend another 2 surrounded by the overall wearing, PDA crazy BYU zoobes and get ANOTHER degree in Elementary Education. Good idea eh...

Going from Advertising classes to Elementary Education classes has been a little bit of a shock. I used to learn about cutting edge media tools, now I am learning ways to get kindergarteners into a circle easily (form a train while running and then run your train of kindergarteners into a circle), finding the "jungle beat" in my el ed music class while dancing around my teacher playing an African drum, and spending my time coloring, reading picture books, and making lessons plans.

The funniest part of this all, despite being surrounded by mainly mom's and young married girls that make up the el ed major, is that I am absolutely loving it. Getting past the inhibitions of doing ridiculous things in most my classes has been a little interesting, and some days (actually many days) I want to die at the stuff that I am made to do, but at the end of the day I really do like what I'm doing.
