What will they think of next

oh, i am just sitting here at 7:30am pondering the world of technology. it impacts our life everyday all day. wow! when i was ten we spent 30 minutes a week on the computer in the computer lab and practiced typing. i remember when i first learned to use the internet and my mind was blown. now i carry around an iphone ha! 12 year old self is still saying "holy cow this is incredible". we live in a crazy cool world i tell you. even though sometimes i want to throw my computer against a wall(mostly because it is smarter than i am and i don't know how to use it) i am so grateful for all the new technology we get everyday!

 

here is a little taste for you. two words: panoramic pictures.

thank you steve jobs for changing out the world we one knew.

 and here is one that i just find too good to be true.(special education teacher in me)

School makes you smarter

So obviously those of us that go to BYU go for the amazing academic education. BYU is a school where we can have the best of the best.  we not only get a great education when it comes to math, english, and science but we get religion as well.  its a place for academic AND spiritual growth. but today this is what i learned....

i first learned that just becuase the attractive man sitting next to you doesn't have a ring on does not mean he is't married. that was awkaward. WEAR A RING!

then i learned that Joseph Smith ripped it?? yeah ripped what? dont worry i am still trying to figure that one out too.

i learned that some freshman boys go on dates not because they like the girl or even because they think she it cute they go on dates simply to tell their friends they have a date.

i learned that this video is a metaphor for the rest of my life as a special education teacher. collaboration people! (watch it! its a goodie)

vienna vegtable orchestra. enough said.

i did learn some statistical terms(something somewhat productive right)

i learned that a group of mice is called a mischief, that a group of jellyfish is called a smack, and a group of finches is called a charm.

i also learned that at the BYU bookstore candy counter you can get goldfish for like two thousand times cheeper than anywhere else. i got this whole back for $0.78!!! WHAT???

(it doesnt look like a lot but i promise you it was! almost as much as is in one of those packages!)

please don't get the wrong idea though i promise BYU actually gives students a great education and most days it's all about applied behavior analysis, and how to give a proper assessment. today was just one of those day.

You can tell a lot by shoes

Warning this post is in no way intended to offend anybody...don't get offended. It's a general observation made by me and two friends at a football game. Ok! That being said it has come to my attention this week that shoes say a lot about a girl. So during half time some friends and I analyzed shoe wears of all types and we came up with some good conclusions.

(we lumped ourselves into it to! Here's ours foot attire for the night)

So lets talk about shoes!

Tennis shoes with long jeans, this is a Utah thing. Tennis shoes can included things such as sketchers, nikes, ascics, or any other type of running like shoe.  These are the comfort seekers and laid back. They often times(and i say often and not always, pay attention to the often) wear t shirts and hair pulled back into a pointail with minimal make up on.  Often these are the people you wake up effortlessly get ready for the day and are out the door ready to go. (BYU is full of tennis shoe wears)

 

Then we have ballerina flat girls. These are the preppy girls. Skinny jeans ballerina tops and a nice top or sweater are these peoples go to.  They fall somewhere between high maintanence and low maintanence they want to look put together and nice but dont want to spring for the heel to walk the mile to class.

 

Oh you high healed wearers you amaze me.  These people are a bit of a mystery to me, I hate heels and it hard for me to comprehend why they wear them all day. Often times these are the girls that are more high maitence(remember no offense taken by this post). They often times average below 5'4, this i understand, wanting to look taller. Full blowen make up and dressy clothes normally accomany the heels on a daily basis. Heel wears I admonish you.

 

Cronic tom wears: Poeple of all types that are addictted to toms. (you may need help, Just kidding!)

 

Vans/converse. These two made it out of the tennis shoe category to form one of their own. These are the spunky, funky, often artsy people. They wear lots of colors(sometimes in their hair), plaid scarfs, and skinny jeans.  Or sometimes its the preppy girls seeking the comfort of a tennis shoe.  They are often pretty laid back people as well.

 

So there it is our over generalized steryotypes of shoe wears.  Again these were observations made at a football game. These assumptions were made about people who wear the same type of shoe daily. I myself wear almost every type.  Also, these assumptions were based primarily on the popluation of BYU students. These observations were also made about girls, men well we won't even attempt that.

So what do your shoes say about you?

 

ps

here is a video for you sunday
