This week...I set up my classroom!

AH! I have a classroom. I never would have thought this would be happening 6 months ago. I had a busy, busy week and I'm writing this on Friday night because I have a BUSY weekend. So let's talk about fun stuff, shall we?

"Norton" being the Anti-Virus software slowing down my lab :( 

Monday: Our 2nd 5 Little Grins had a little bit of a turn out and we are so excited for next week's. Starting my week out positive has really helped me prepare for the week. In case you didn't notice there are also THREE giveaways going on right now.

Tuesday: Christina @ Polka Dot Heart nominated me for a Sunshine Award!

Wednesday: I actually super loved this Wedding Wednesday post. I wrote about the unique purchases Iman and I are having at our wedding.

Thursday: Have you heard of Fresh and Easy because I'm sort of obsessed, oh and I'm being healthier. WIN!

Friday: Yesterday I wrote about my million jobs. That's actually a lot of jobs, really it has just been 17.

Today, I'm heading to a server meeting this morning (woohoo 7 a.m. bdubs meetings!) then my little munchkin's 2 year old birthday SO EXCITED!!!!!!!

Hopefully she isn't sick on her birthday this year :(

 After we're bowling with my coworkers at Planet Bravo. Sort of like a reunion since I haven't seen them since camp...and Iman loves bowling so it will be fabulous!!

Sunday is, of course, football Sunday!!!! Then Sinister. I. Am. Terrified. But excited. Haunted.

Hope you have a great weekend!

Pointless Ramblings about School

Today was my much anticipated first day of school! I never notice how much I miss school until I take a loong break. And, BOY, was this break a looong one! [[5 months]].

There is just something about the first day of classes and back to school shopping that puts me in a state of euphoria. My mom took my brother and I back to school shopping today. We spent 200 dollars. ON SCHOOL SUPPLIES. Mostly, it's because my little bro and I are very obsessive (OCD) so we like to buy a lot of post it notes (me) and pens (him). But this whole thing was just so much fun! We were being silly and having a blast together! It's been hard to get my brother in a happy mood for us lately, so this was much needed.

So, I got my new beautifully colored notebooks and folders and post it notes and PINK Breast Cancer Awareness pens. I packed them in my backpack and headed for school. I started at Orange Coast College today. It's a big change from Ohio State, and in typical Raewyn-fashion, I was freaking out! I didn't know where to park or where my class was, etc! I'm sure I was a hilarious sight to be seen.

But I made my way to the library, honestly, there is something that is just so peaceful and comforting about a library. I wish I spent more time in them! And I found my friend! She ended up petitioning my class (photojournalism). We are super stoked about this! Me because I'm a journalist and looove photography, her because she's a documentary filmmaker!

Our teacher is the photo editor for the LA times...which means yet another connection for me when I get out in the world! YAY! I need to impress him with my photography skills so I can get a job! Tomorrow I have Public Speaking, and then the next two days after that philosophy and cultural anthropology.

I don't know what it is about school, but it makes me feel so complete, like I have something to look forward to - I'm working toward something! I swear I'm always gonna be a student!

This entry was pretty much pointless, but I am just so excited for the opportunities a new semester brings! I hope everyone else has a good school year!
