I came across your blog and I love your layout and pictures! I've enjoyed reading your posts and look forward to seeing how your school year progresses! I noticed in your post yesterday that your sis is a JWU grad! I work at the JWU campus in Providence and was just out in Denver this past June. I loved the Denver campus. Such a small world :) My favorite teacher was my high school German teacher (yes, I took German. Definitely does not come in handy at all!), Frau Swan. She was crazy!! - but in a good, warmhearted way. She brought so much youthful energy, even though she was in her early 60's when I had her. She was hilarious and would do daily songs and dances to help us remember our vocab. Good luck on the start to your year!! .-= Erin´s last blog ..<a href="http://biggirleats.wordpress.com/2009/08/28/curses-upon-the-net/" rel="nofollow">Curses upon the Net.</a> =-. Hi Mara!

I love pesto but it's got so many calories. That seems like the perfect way to healthy it up. I'm all about trying that one next week. And I feel that way going into a new job too (I imagine each year feels different like that) - even though I have tons of experience I always worry that everyone is going to hate me and I'm going to do a crappy job and...and...and... (and it's all completely me being neurotic). Hope you're having a great day! .-= Quix´s last blog ..<a href="http://adjustedreality.com/blog/?p=1069" rel="nofollow">Better Today</a> =-.
