I Hate Titles



















YES! I am still alive, I hope that was enough photographic evidence! I think I have finially decicded a plan of action regarding school, post secondary school to be specific. I will go to college and get an associate of science, see how that goes, and then either complete a bachelors degree (spealizing in what I'm not sure), or if after the two years nursing is still what I really want to do than I can go into nursing. I'm just discovering right now how much I love math and chemistry, and while I love biology, there are no math or chemistry courses in the nursing program I'm going into. So I will try them, explore, and decide.
For those of you wondering, I did get an 'A' on my essay in english. I was fairly happy with the final result, and at the last minute changed the title to "The Invincable Bullet" because the old title didn't fit well with the actual essay, although it was a great title. I am getting basically 90% in all my classes, my lowest grade being 88.6% :) So I was very excited about that!
Did I write about my new camera? I don't think I did.... well I got the Nikon D80, this beautiful stunning camera that I've been wanting for years. If you knew the price you'd understand why it took years to buy. Google it if your curious, its a DSLR, more advanced than a beginner camera but not high tech enough to qualify as pro. The pictures in this post were all taken with my new camera :)
Telesa is officially a walking baby. I guess I should say toddler, but I won't, shes my baby! Shes signing so much, when I first started teaching her sign language I didn't expect her to pick up on them so fast! Her favourite sign is definitely "more milk", it only takes her a fraction of a second to sign it after seeing me. Shes doing really well, but growing way to fast.
I'm doing well too, alothough I am admittingly tired. I think its just all the work I've been doing, I never just stop to chill and take a break. I bust my butt in school, and when I'm out of school I'm running after my little one. I think after christmas I might consider leaving my job. While I love working at bootlegger, its starting to be to much.

ellie!
it's so cool that you're teaching telesa sign language!
i did an essay on teaching children sign language before spoken language and it seems like such a neat idea!

Yay! I love DSLRs, I am attending an art school to get a degree in photography and I just got a new camera (the Canon 40D). DSLRs are the best, after using my first one, I couldn't go back to the lousy point and shoot cameras.
