"I felt my heart was trying to find a place for you to stay, a place where I feel safe."

Kina Grannis writes the sweetest, most heartfelt lyrics, which I like to relate to.


I like this picture from Disney Pixar

Never again will I work for the Academic Advantage. I can't believe the amount of paperwork they have tutors complete, plus the many glitches in their stupid system. No one ever picks up at the company and they reply to e-mails at the slowest pace and I STILL HAVE NOT BEEN PAID! 3 separate websites to sign into with different user names and passwords, and once you get past the log-in you're faced with documents that you have to retrieve which you can't even find... then I must make more than one trip to my student's house to get their parent's signatures, freaking ridiculous.. seriously never again. I enjoy tutoring but I really can't stand the Academic Advantage manages things. They're not helpful at all!! Since this is a country of free speech and this is my blog, I can rant all I want about them.

finding beauty where the dark's hold lets go

I've been searching dreary weather
for a cloud that's line in silver
but the rain keeps on falling
and my love, i am calling for you

I always get my face dirty when I eat watermelon (lol)

The things kids say that makes my day :)

Earlier last week I went to visit the learning center where I used to work. I bought the children some donuts. One of the little girls said, "Ms. Jennifer, the next time you come to visit us can you bring the cookies you baked instead? They are way better than these donuts!"

Earlier this morning I had an interview at a school for children with learning disabilities. I really liked it there. The teachers and staff were really friendly and the children of course were adorable. As part of the interviewing process I was placed into a classroom to interact with the teacher and children. As I was walking away from the classroom and down the hall, one little boy looked up at his teacher and said, "I liked her." His teacher looked towards me, laughed and said, "Aw, I liked her too Brian." That was so sweet and definitely made me day.
