Okay Logan, in a vain attempt to procrastinate on studying...I have finally joined the blogging world!  Instead of studying for my last two exams today, I have spent the past hour listening to music, reading a book, and only sometimes taking breaks to "study."  I hope you don't take notes on college from me! 

Song of the moment:  "Beyond Words" by Tenth Avenue North

You can only get this song on youtube or another website that streams music online, because it is impossible to download, but it has got me through many hours of being ready for Christmas break!  My favorite line is this, "In every love song there's a lover, in your heart I hope it's me."  Okay family, I know it's cheesy, but who would your heart be singing to?  Family, faith, friends?  

Book of the moment:  Educating Esme by Esme Raji Codell

I highly recommend this book, especially to aspiring teachers!  (Sheryl, pick it up!)  It is entertaining and inspiring, as Esme, a first year teacher, journals her frustrations and joys as she attempts to inspire the love of learning into the lives of inner-city, underprivileged, kids.  It has got me very excited about the Alcoa/Lenoir City school system that I will one day teach in!  One of my  new favs :)
