This Week...

Sorry about missing class this week.  It's been a rough few weeks!  an accident last week wrecked my fiance's car, but we're ok.  Then my car didn't want to start and isn't inspected anyway.  Saturday we get the call about my little brother's accident.  It's been rough, sorry guys.  

As for school... I started a little research for this class, but didn't get really far because of printing issues (my printer stinks).    Found a lot of great sites, but didn't save them so I'll have to "re-Google" them.  

Sorry this is a short post, I just wanted to update and apologize for missing class.  See you all soon.

Hello Classmates!

I am a 21 year old graduate student studying Early Childhood education. I started school as a Premed student and later changed my mind (you shouldn't be a doctor if you don't like the human body!). So here I am! I presently work at the Strong National Museum of Play. My job there consists of creating/managing all of the crafts throughout the museum, including inventory and preparation as well as training. I also am third in command for Birthday Parties. With this part of the job, I make and receive phone calls to/from parents regarding birthday parties, inventory, train new hosts, make orders and work closely with the managers and Presidents of the Museum. At the moment, my pet project is creating a Berenstain Bear's Birthday party to coincide with our Berenstain Exhibit opening in April! (Any suggestions give me a shout out!)

I am also planning at wedding at the moment so there may be times where I seem completely stressed out, just beware! The wedding is in July and coming up on me quickly so I get nervous here and there.

After I graduate from this program, we plan to move to North Carolina (where my Fiance can get work in Theatre's more easily and cost of living is much lower). There I plan to teach and eventually I hope to work most closely with Children with Autism. I feel that if we can find a way to education children with autism, we may someday be able to "get rid" of autism, at least on the educational end of the disease.

That is about it for me. I'm pretty open minded and willing to talk to just about anyone. I look forward to this class and getting to know everyone!

Goodbye for now!
