  • Many Thanks!

    I am very grateful to all of you for praying for the AP exam. For those of you who might not know what it is, AP or Advanced Placement exams are tests which high school students can take. If they score highly enough, they can earn college credit.  If you are really keen to learn more, visit The College Board.  Nathan feels like he did as well as he could expect to have done.  He’s just glad it’s all over.  So am I!

    So, now I’m sitting in the midst of my living room, guts of portfolios strewn about in mass of misinformation.   But, Lord willing, I’ll have order soon. I’d better; evaluations are tomorrow at 1:00!  I’ve got Billy Joel’s Glass Houses on the CD player to assist me.  I’m just singing along, a happy gal.  It’s probably the first album I ever memorized.  I remember sitting on my bottom bunk with my tape player playing it over and over and over in my thirteen year old voice. But, my tape skipped in one part, so I always messed up one line of “All for Leyna.” I still do.  The soundtracks for CATS, Camelot, and Godspell were also memorized around this same time.  Ah, nostalgia!

    Nine days of school left to go!

  • Your blog is such a blessing to me! I totally understand having the “guts of portfolio” strewn everywhere! ugh!

    Thanks for your posts!

    Have a blessed day!!

  • Got your letter today and have written back this morning!  :)   I also am heading toward portfolio mode.  Already typed in several things this morning–so happy to be started.  The hard part is coming, though.  That’s ok–at least some is done. 

    And of course there are no 3 ring binders in all of Germany.  Not even on the base.  Oh well.  Must make do with what I can.  Watch out Office Depot when I return to America!!

  • Mrs. Sellers! And to think you’re a teacher! I would think someone like you would be able to refrain from using shameless flattery…

  • I love his “don’t go changing” song. It’s so pretty and romantic! I want some guy to sing that to me someday.

    Northanger Abbey is splendid. It’s one of my favorites as well, or what I’ve read of it, anyway. I had to return it to the library before I was finished with it. But now I have it, so I’ll have to read it once I finish Mansfield Park. Out of curiosity, what is it about Fanny that annoys you? That she is somewhat of a push-over, or what? I hope my opinion doesn’t change after I’ve read more, since I’m enjoying it at the moment and wouldn’t want to dis-enjoy it, if there is such a thing.

  • Mary, listening to Billy Joel, I never would have thought that!
