I usually just write blogs about big crazy things that have happened or revelations I've had, but today I feel like joining the masses and writing about random thoughts & my day, etc. I have a feeling we'll be jumping from totally random thought to totally random thought.. Get excited.
So I subbed today at a montessori school- 3,4,&5 year olds. Despite their ages, these kids were so good & they were brilliant. 4 year olds were telling me the continents and which animal lived in each- holy hell. It was crazy. The real reason I'm writing about subbing today, however, was because there was a dude in my class named Guy and I literally quoted Never Been Kissed the entire day everytime I said his name...laughing out loud each time of course...
-"Hi. I´m Guy."
-"Hi.Y-yes, y-you are a guy. Quite a guy. Oh, my. That rhymes. Yikes. Bikes."
-"Are you in special ed?"
ahahahha. I love that movie. I think I'll go watch it after this. Oh & the more I'm in the schools, the more I know teaching is not where my heart is. I like kids & I'm good with them, but I have no desire whatsoever to teach them. I'll sub & make some easy quick cash when real estate is slow, though. I don't mind that every now & then. It's too bad I spent a year of my life getting my masters in early childhood ed. Ah well. Everything happens for a reason, and even if nothing else, it taught me serious perseverance. I came home & cried so many times because I hated it- wow. Rough time. I'm glad I stuck it out though, because I can now say that I have a masters. Pretty cool.
I'm enjoying real estate for sure, but my dream is to be involved with the entertainment industry in some way. That's really the only place my heart is...music & movies, etc. I really want to get more into acting, but I'm not normal in that I don't want to be famous or get involved just to be rich or be the next Natalie Portman or someone. I really just love the whole scene & the people that work together making this thing happen, etc. I think I want to do bit acting-is that what it's called? A few lines here or there, a dead body on CSI, a stand-in for [insert someone awesome here]. I like the smaller stuff. Man, I wish. You never know what lies around the corner. I guess we'll just have to see.
Meanwhile, back at the ranch...I've been trying to learn guitar. That junk hurts my fingers like nobody's business Toughen up, already! The only songs that are even kind of sounding remotely ok are...Leaving on a Jet Plane and The Gambler (yes, Kenny Rogers). I love both of these songs & my favorite thing is singing along as I play. Too much fun. I have to hold a few notes extra long while I move my fingers from the D chord to the G chord however. haha. I guess it just takes time.
You know what show I'm loving these days, too? Ugly Betty. I've been hooked since the 1st one. America Ferrera is incredible. I love that girl. Check it out if you've never seen it. The new episodes of Smallville coming next Jan. look really good, too. Let's go be extras on Smallville, people!
I think I'm starting some Christmas shopping tomorrow- good times. I usually wait until the very last minute, but I think I'll just drive to a few places to see if anything jumps out at me. No clue what I'm getting anyone at this point!
Also, I'm really missing my Death Sentence friends. I love & miss you all! We need a reunion. ASAP. Too bad we didn't get to spend more time together than we did. Maybe we'll work together again sometime : )
Oh & I'm so totally loving the music of Woodale right now. I'm not sure why exactly, but it gives me the best feeling in the world. Great band.
In other news, I've realized that talking to myself out loud is more out of hand than ever before. People I don't know in grocery stores or wherever constantly say "what?" to me & I don't even realize anything has come out of my mouth. haha. And I'm really not enjoying this cold weather. If it's going to be a low of 18 degrees in SC tomorrow, at least bring snow. I can't stand the cold- I feel like I'd die if I lived in the North. How do you guys do it!?
Finally, I really want a kitten. I'm obsessed with animals, esp. kitties, and I'm dying for one to have at my apartment. The sucky thing is they charge pet rent here. What the crap is that? Maybe after Christmas, though. Tors & I are thinking about it. I wonder what I'd name it. Maybe Shoogy. I like that. Alright, the ramblings of a Mellie are finally coming to an end. Nite nite, friends.
