Funny Moment

So one of my undergrad students came to my office hours for some help. As he was leaving, he noticed that we have the same UA water bottle and he says, "we have the same water bottle...that's awkward."

What? Students are so funny.

The Perfect End to a Less than Perfect Week...

Hello All! Happy Friday!

So this week's been rough, I'm not gonna lie. I've had extra research put on my plate for a workshop at AMEA in January. This is a great opportunity but a lot of extra work that doesn't count toward my classes. It's been a bit overwhelming this week.

Last night made my whole week! I checked my mail (which I almost didn't do) and there was a package from my college roommate, April (yes we have the same name), and she sent me Bebe chapstick. This is the best chapstick ever and it's only in Germany! Then, remembering that Michael Buble has a new album coming out on Friday, I went to Itunes and it was already available! I guess this is a benefit of iTunes working on Eastern time and me being in Arizona! His new song, "Haven't Met You Yet" is my new favorite song. I LOVE IT! Here's the video. Seriously, could he look any happier to be doing what he's doing. I love him...he's so my boyfriend! Oh...and it was 51 degrees when I went to school this morning. Thank goodness for the break in the crazy Arizona heat! What a day!! It's the little things that remind me that the glass is half full, not half empty.



Have a blessed weekend!

On Being a PhD Student...

"Being a PhD student is like becoming all of the Seven Dwarfs. In the beginning you're Dopey and Bashful. In the middle, you are usually sick (Sneezy), tired (Sleepy), and irritable (Grumpy). But at the end, they call you Doc, and then you're Happy"

I'm in the sick, tired, and irritable phase...

Happy weekend everyone!!
