Update

Hey,
Well missed my first day of school since student teaching due to stupid Food Poisoning. I threw up everything I took down, even water, and now I am sitting on the pot. It has been about 3 hours and things are calming down, so I think I about have it all out of my system. Thank Goodness I am 2 days ahead of schedule. Well that was the bad news, but now on to the more exciting stuff.

I get to see my beautiful Fiancee today and stay with her this weekend. I am gonna take care of her and do some chores so she can get rest for the week ahead. I love spending time with her and cant wait until we live together. I am so happy to have her and I wouldnt change any decision that I have made to have her back. I know that is sounds corny that I am just so happy, but I really hope that she is as happy as I am. I know we both want to get married and hope that it can happen soon.

So my mom was talking to me about Clair and I getting married. I havent talked to Clair about it yet, but I will tell her today when I see her about what my mom said. Well, my mom said asked me how me and her would think about an August Wedding this year. I told her that we have some things that we would like to do. I told her that we both dont want a big wedding, so she is gonna make a list of some people that she thinks would actually come. I told her that between the two of us, try to keep it below 100 together. I know that Clair doesnt want a big wedding and I am the same. There are family I only see once in a blue moon, so why invite them. Mom did say that those are the people that give the biggest gifts, though. LoL.

So, anyway, I am hoping to talk to Clair and see what she thinks. My parents and family really love Clair and I am glad that I am with someone that my family loves as much as I do. I just hope that her family can get used to me, and love me as part of thier family too.

So, I am still have more to say! I applied for a $250,000 grant from pepsi to try to open a youth center in the Somerset Area. I really hope I can get a job, so that I dont have to be a househusband. I wouldnt mind doing that, but I know that I really want to help provide for Clair and have us work together to provide for each other. I would love for me to work to open a youth center cause there isnt even a YMCA within the area. I really care for kids and want to give kids another option than drugs, alcohol, or just bad behavior. That would be a great dream of mine to open that, but if that isnt a possibility I would just like to get a good job so me and Clair dont have to worry about money. I know that once I move it will take me alittle bit to get a job, but I will work hard to get what I can.

I cant think of much else to talk about, but I just pray that things continue to work out like it has been. I think everything has worked out good so far, and I plan on keeping it that way.

Great Weekend

So.....

This weekend I help my darling move into her new home for now, but soon to be our new home. On Friday we got everything done and used some time left over to just be together. Well, I was hoping to propose to my sweetheart and ask her to be with me forever. It didnt quite turn out how I wanted it, I wanted to do it on Saturday when we would spend our first night in our new home. I was gonna take her out to a nice resturant, then propose when we got home. But I just felt like doing it on Friday because we were alone and ready to start our new lives.

I am sorry that it wasnt as special as it could have been, but I promise to have more romantic things. I have plans, but I just want to wait until we can make a whole weekend out of the plans. I have some ideas and I know that things will be ok, and she will be surprised when I do it, cause she will never know when anything is coming.

Then, on Saturday, we went to the apartment to get things fixed and make everything official. We hooked up the TV and found out there is still cable there for now, which is good, cause it gave us something to do for a while. Then we decided to go bowling, and Clair and I really enjoyed that. She did beat me one game, which had to be my last game, but I didnt mind. We just had the best time we could ever have, I enjoyed everything.

When we got to the bowling alley, I found that my cousin Phil and Gina were there with their kids. After bowling they took Clair and me out to Summit Diner to get milkshakes and just talk about things. I had a good time talking and having good shakes, and I hope Clair did too.

I cannot wait until Clair Collins becomes Clair Nau, and I cannot wait until I graduate so I can move in with my life partner and we can enjoy ourselves everyday as we did this weekend. I love you sweetheart and I cant wait to live with you.

Immature Students

Immature Students just bust my bubble!!

Well we had a guest speaker today in my health class for 7th and 8th grade. Well the first classs was the best class of the day, they were very good and participated appropriately.

Then came the second and third periods, The second period class didnt listen and didnt take my student evaluations seriously. Ok, so that doesnt bother me soo much, I knew that would happen with some class.

On third period, They made jokes of what was being discussed and acted immature and was the worst people we could ever be. They were very disrespectful to the guest speaker and didnt learn a thing other than how to make fun of SEX. I am really wondering do kids today have any moral or values, I dont think so! Most kids dont have parents today that can teach their kid how to be respectful and act appropriately, so that mean it is up to us teachers. I am really hating parents who want kids, but dont act like it.

I hope that when Clair and I become parents we teach our kids the value of respect in this world, and I am sure we will because we are both teachers and have experienced bad parenting so we know what not to do. Well it is about our lunch, which has been cut short due to schedule change due to weather, but things will be ok.

I LOVE YOU CLAIR ELLEN COLLINS!! :)
