She believes in Santa: do you?

This is in response to a previous blog post by a classmate.  Some commericals are making it out that Santa is not real.  I figured I would upload a video about someone who clearly believes in Santa.

this video is so funny

Good Luck, Chalkboard chat

To go along with my last post, I didn’t know I wanted to switch until probably two weeks ago.  I like how are blog name is chalkboard chat but I will not be using such an item with a Journalism degree.  Oh well.  I hope teaching works out for you, I really do.  I cannot hang.  I do not like how the program is set up, but that is just my opinion.  Good Luck!

from education to journalism..what a switch!!

So I definitely made up my mind about switching majors.  Some of my family, however, does not agree with this decision.  I keep telling them that it is my choice and I want to be happy.  So Journalism it is.  What do you think about that?

Twitequette

This video shows how to use Twitter.  It has a very monotone voice.  I thought it was interesting.

Twitter-Facebook

Twitter is much like Facebook. For example, in the third paragraph the author talks about how you do not have to make a phone call to see how a friend is doing. They just “Twitter” their status (which we find completely interesting) and that’s that. This is exactly like Facebook. I mean I guess I am not the biggest fan of Twitter. However, when reading this article, it sounds like it has a lot of things that have made this a better social network then Myspace or Facebook. Before this class, I would have never even considered signing up for Twitter, and I still do not want it, but I guess it is kind of cool that it is an immediate response kind of thing. We can have full conversations on Facebook, but it is not “right away.” I understand how you can “follow” people, but for some reason when I was making my first tweet, I was following Bob Vila and Spencer Pratt. I did not pick these guys to follow. I really do not care about I guess its The Hills that he is on, or whatever Bob Vila is building. I do care about my favorite hockey team, (Washington Capitals) though, so I am following them. I agree with page three of this article. Because Twitter is geared to twenty-somethings and teens there will be a competitor in the next few years, and I am sure everyone will have it. It will be something that involves everything with Twitter but with more. I mean with the way technology has advanced, I will not be surprised if it happens soon.

praxis teaching

I found this video when I still wanted to be a teacher.  I have been having so many problems passing the praxis.  I only miss it by one point.  I think I am still going to take it just so it is under my belt.

Praxis issues

Is anyone else having trouble passing Praxis I?  I got delayed a semester because I have yet to pass it=(.  I do not know why I am having trouble.  The worst part about it is that I am only missing it by one point on the reading and one point on the math.  The writing a passed which I guess is good.  Oh well.  I guess they have to have the cut off somewhere.

Teaching-A passion

I have always wanted to teach.  I think I was six when I realized it.  I do not know what I find so interesting about it.  I guess it’s the fact that I love kids.  All my cousins are younger than me so in a way that helps the fact that I want to teach.  I always try to help them whenever I get a chance or when they are in town, since they all live away.  I want kids to be able to look up to me and know that I am there to help them whenever they need me.  I want to be a role model and shape the minds of today’s youth.  Teaching just might be a job that I will like because some people do not like their jobs.
