Simon eats from a fork....

Yes you heard me! One day for lunch Sierra and I came to my house for lunch. Sierra asked if she could give Simon some left over food in her plate. Sure, I said.







A plate works too.

Sierra's Delicious Chocolate/Peanut butter cake

Sierra made this delicious cake. Enjoy the pics.

She also made cup cakes with the same flavor to celebrate my Comps being over. Love her.









This last one is with the Instagram app, recommended by Pioneer Woman.

It's over, and I have pictures!!

My comps are finally over! I want to shout it from the roof tops!!

After my comps were over I got and the car and realized I was hungry. So I called in an order to Abner's. While I waited I went to Walgreen's to get these cookies AnW has been eating for the past week or so. I decided to have one.

oh wait make that two!

I also got this really good tea/lemonade stuff. Not sure why it has George W.'s picture on it, but it does

Then I went and got my meal from Abner's and went home!

I decided when I ordered that i was really hungry so I order "The Plate" which has 5 chicken tenders. After the cookies there was no way i could finish all of that chicken.

Here is what is left.

I also shared a little bit with Simon Dog

He loves french fries. You can see the intensity in his eyes!

What Simon didn't get AnW found in the fridge later. He loves when i bring leftovers home.

Again, sorry no pictures

It is 9:46pm on Wednesday night.

I have read over all of my information and feel like I can not hold anymore information in my head.

I don't know if will be able to remember it all in the morning...but the Lord will help me through it. He answers the prayers of his people. Thank you to everyone who has said they would pray for me.

Glory, for great friends and family!

I take my exam at 8am, if your the praying type...and I have not already petitioned you for prayer please say a quick prayer for me. Pray I will retain, well I guess remember at this point, information and that I will not be bitter towards Professor #3 (see last blog) .

Thanks, Friends
MoW

Ps: I promise a picture blog one day next week, that is if i ever want to look at a computer again after typing for 4 hours. Holla!

Sorry, no pictures...

WARNING:long blog with no pictures, feel free not to read.


I really don't like posting blogs without pictures. There is no picture to associate with this topic, unless I showed you my stressed out face, cause that is what I am.

I am taking my comprehensive exams (for my Masters degree) on Thursday. Everyone that has taken them has told me not to worry about them. They continue by saying I was really stressed about them and then I took them and they were a breeze.

I have 4 questions. My major professor writes 2 questions and then two other professors write 1 each.

My major professor's question, I feel like, will be a breeze. I have had her for A LOT of classes and feel like I know her grading style.

Professor #2 has been very clear about his question and has been really great to meet with me and answer any question I may have. #2's question is on theory (you know; constructivism, behaviorism, and cognitivism). I have studied about these since my first class at Mississippi State. I think I can handle that one too.

Here is where the stress comes in! Professor #3. #3 means well, but it is stressing me out. Professor #3 gave me 5 chapters in a book to read. They were even short chapters, and very helpful to my teaching career. For the relevance I was thankful. But, the stressor is...professor #3 is only going to pick one of the articles for me to write about, but I have to be completly prepared for each one of them. AND did i mention that i have to site it APA at the end. And let me be honest I don't know how to to do that(I told her I did, forgive me Lord). I am a technology major; Microsoft Word will do it for you, Why would I waist my time in learning how to do it...just saying. This question is more stressful, than the others, because I have very little prior knowledge of these subjects unlike the other questions from professors #1 and #2.

All this to say please lift a pray for me between 12pm and 5pm on March 24th.

Fun Family moment for the blog...

I have posted this picture on facebook before, but I think it is blog worthy.



My family (Sims) got together for grandmothers birthday (note grandmother in the blue). We had pineapple upside down cake and naturally it had cherries on top. Some of us Sims like cherries and some don't. In this picture Nena (Aunt Danita) is tossing a cherry across the table for Austin to catch, in his mouth, because someone on that end of the table did not want their cherry.

Fun moment, glad I captured it!

I make a lot of grammatical errors in my blogs...


I am sure if you read my blog you have noticed that have I a lot of typos and grammatical errors. Today I was reading a few of my previous blogs and realized it my self. This is not acceptable.

I blame it partially on my iPhone...darn auto correct makes for some really silly sentences sometimes.

I was reading Pioneer Woman's 10 tips for blogging and trying not to make grammatical errors and typos is one of her tips. Here is the link. http://thepioneerwoman.com/blog/2010/09/ten-important-things-ive-learned-about-blogging/

So I vow to proof read all of my blogs from here on out...

I will not be perfect, but I will not have silly sentences anymore.
