Heart on my sleeves

I have always worn my heart on my sleeves. I am very in touch with my emotions, and very emotionally driven. However, lately, that has come up to a new degree.

At the dollar theater just a couple of weeks ago, Matt and I watched Wreck it Ralph. I highly highly recommend it. I think it's my favorite movie ever. Ask me in a month because I have a tendency to change favorite movies fairly quickly.

Anyway...This movie makes me cry like you wouldn't believe. I don't want to spoil it for anyone, but every time I've watched it, I've teared up at two different parts. Sometimes a third pops in, but not always. I usually cry the first time I watch movies with tender heart touching moments, but this one has just really gone straight to my heart, and today I even got emotional and started tearing up just discussing it with Matt. I couldn't believe how emotionally invested I am in these characters that even knowing that it all works out in the end (Not a spoiler because, hey, it's Disney. It always works out) I just tear up thinking about it all.

High School Never Ends

Unlike most people out there, I loved high school. I had such a great time. That doesn't mean that I would go back as a student by any means, but I met people who are still some of my very best friends, and learned a lot about myself.

It's really great news that I loved high school because I am going back. I am starting out my fall semester this year at a high school, then half way through the year I'm going even further back to jr high. That's right. I'm doing my student teaching. After which I can only hope that I will continue spending much of the rest of my life in a high school or a junior high. Only this time I will be the teacher. I can't wait to mentor students and spend that time in the school. I will be going to Kearns High School AND Spanish Fork Junior High. I am so excited that I can hardly stand myself. I can't wait to write lesson plans and teach the students. I also can hardly wait to break out my teacher wardrobe.

Finally, and possibly most excitingly, it's justification for me to go buy more teacher clothes. After all, one can't work with only 4-5 outfits right?

Also insert here anything from banana republic or shabby apple...or since I'm poor...I'll just make some!
