Secret Semester
I call this the secret semester. Besides my parents, psychologist and the Loyola Community I have not told anyone I am taking another course this spring. I tend to be concerned with people’s judgments. When I decided last year I was going to take four courses when I returned from a semester break I...

The School Library
I remember the first day at my high school placement for Phase I of student teaching. My mentor, Ms. Farmer gave me a tour. A visiting graduate from years past came along too. One portion of the tour I remember was when we went into the library. “The school just put a lot of money into renovating...

Dean's List
Dr. Lawrence turned in my grade for Psychology the other day. I received a B+. The B+ is very important. I now stand at a 3.6 average. For the first and what will be the only time in my college career I made the Dean’s List. By no means was I bad student. Normally I ranged from a 3.0 to 3.2. I...

Wrapping Paper
As the holiday season comes to a close I got to thinking about wrapping paper. Certainly thinking about wrapping paper makes sense this time of year. What does it have to do with my blog? The answer is rather simple and boils down to one three syllable word. Fundraiser. I remember in elementary...

Ann's Lump of Coal
I used to think only Santa Claus could give lumps of coal at Christmas. I was wrong. My sister Ann received a lump of coal from Loyola College during this past week. Her roommate Tricia will be studying abroad. For Ann that would be no big deal. She does not like Tricia or her other roommate Hayley,...

Secret Santa
First off I would like to wish everyone a Merry Christmas. For those who do not celebrate Christmas I would still like to wish you all a Merry Holiday Season. # I remember when I was in middle school we did Secret Santas. The school where I went to middle school is actually a Pre K to 8th grade...

Themes
During the past semester themes emerged. My aim here is to discuss those themes. When I look back and remember this past semester those themes will remain in my mind, I feel. Then again with time comes greater insight. Greater insight can lead to a whole change of views. Perhaps I look at the past...

Initial Issues and Grades
Before the semester started I did an entry dedicated to issues for the upcoming semester (link provided below). I felt it would be fun to revisit those issues and see how they turned out. I should also mention that on Tuesday I will discuss different themes that emerged during the semester. I am...

Blogging Plans
What is my future here on Blogit? Yesterday's entry would have been an appropriate place to address my plans here, but because I was in a rush and tired last night I forgot to mention them. Today I shall right that wrong. I have already mentioned I will do entries for My Education Experience three...
