Staying up all Night
Hey guys! Heather here. :o) It is currently 3:30 in the morning
and I am still up doing homework for my saturday class which STARTS
in 4 hours and 30 minutes... that means I have to leave in 3 hours
and 30 minutes for it...which means I need to get up in 2 hours 30
minutes. Yeah, I have concluded it is a no-sleep night (It has been
a long time since one of these). So, taking a break from my oh so
fun (NOT) DAP observation write-up, I thought I would let you know
what we did for date night on Friday, 4/24/09.
I don't know if you know this, but there is an international
honors society for the community college level called Phi Theta
Kappa. I was invited to join the organization because of my GPA at
Palomar, and since it is a lifetime membership, I accepted the
offer. Friday night was the induction ceremony so Nick and I went
to it as our "date night" adventure. The ceremony itself was
nothing to write home about. I will post a video when I have more
time (short one, I promise) but basically I said the oath, blew out
a candle, signed my name in their book, and got a carnation. That
was the process to get inducted. Now, I know there were specific
meanings for all those things but since it is 3:30am and my mind is
running off of Mountain Dew I don't have a clue what they are. The
induction part of the ceremony ended and we played a game of
Jepordy before we were dismissed (an hour early!).
Nick and I hit up the Old Spaghetti Factory on the way home for
some AMAZING dinner! I had a half/half pasta dish with half
mazithra cheese and half white clam sauce. Nick had half ravioli
half spaghetti. We both were too full to finish so we took home
about half of our dishes. They feed you SO much there... like we
got soup or salad (I got salad and Nick got soup), warm bread, the
meal itself, spamoni ice cream, and coffee. We also ordered italian
cream sodas and got to take home 2 special 40th anniversary edition
glasses. They have changes the glasses since I took home my last
one. That just shows how often I go there!
After dinner we came home (got home about 10pm) and I have been
doing homework since. Ah, the life of a college student. :o) My
husband is peacefully sleeping and I wish I were with him. Oh well,
there is always tomorrow right?
That's all for now!

Heather vs. Earthworm
Heather fights a particularly stubborn earthworm while trying to
get him out of the dirt and into a science experiment.
Enjoy!

ETA: Thanks sweetie, for showing my true bravery and how dorky I
look while making science activities for preschoolers. Story of my
life!
