Public Display of Affection

Not going to lie but it's pretty annoying yet entertaining watching new couples come into the library all lovey dovey kissy face. They walk in, strutting their stuff as if saying: ya that's right! We're together. We're so lucky to have found one another and would love to rub it in your face and show you how happy we are. Then they lift their hands over the 3M machines because heaven forbid we let go of each other's sweaty hands for more 2 seconds. I don't think some couples could ever live without each other. How do some go to the bathroom without holding the other's hand. It must be such an inside struggle figuring out which is more important. Maybe there are some that actually do have to hold the other person's hand. hmmm....I guess we'll never know.
My favorite is after they've entered into the Library atrium, they love to stand right by the stairs blocking the entrance for everyone else. It's like they're thinking: let's stand perfectly in the middle so the sun can shine down on our love and let it radiate to everyone else so they can see what they don't have. And if that's not enough, let's hold on to each other's backpacks never wanting to let go afraid that once broken there's no way of reaching each other again. Like the library breaks in half and there's a huge gap. ugh gag me!
They hold each other terrified to let go but finally, they see that no one is around nor cares about their affection so they lose the interest in dragging out the good-bye. If no one is going to watch the show, then why perform? So they say their good-byes and slobber all over each other. I've seen more tongue in the library than at a restaurant. The boy goes downstairs and the girl goes to the fifth floor. She calls out-"do you have your cell phone." the boy responds, "yes but I don't get service!" The girl: "oh no! what are we going to do?" Boy: "We can't study together because I'll stare at you the whole time complimenting your perfection." Girl: "But we can't study apart where I can't reach you by text message every 5 seconds." Here is their dilemma. What to do.... they finally decide that things will be ok while they're apart because they've got facebook messaging. thank heavens for technology!

Spring!


So I woke up this morning thinking it was going to be sunny and springy outside but NO! stupid snow just had to keep coming down. I thought it was an april fools joke but it wasn't. Oh well...I guess it's just a way to keep me focused on school for a few more weeks instead of dreading it more than ever wanting to be outside. The main thing I'm looking forward to is baseball! They've already been showing games on ESPN! Even baseball tonight has started! Yes Webgems! It's going to be an awesome summer! the absolute best! I can't wait to sit and keep book at the games! perfectly wonderful! ok...I can't continue because I'll just get more depressed to be in school! blah. I hope I can handle two more weeks!
I also finished teaching p.e. The kids were so perfect! They actually listened to me. Ok...so they were a bit more chatty than usual but when I told them that it hurt my feelings when they didn't listen, they changed! I did have to give a time out to a little girl because she wasn't listening but things worked out! I absolutely love teaching and I am so excited to have my own class! I can't even imagine. It feels so weird to be scheduling next fall semester because I'll actually be a Senior! bizarre! I don't feel old enough! I'll be teaching in a year and a half! so crazy! So many great things are happening and I'm anticipating the future! especially this summer but that's a topic for another time. It's time to go to bed so I can finish yet another project tomorrow! wish me luck!

Love, Baseball babe!
P.S. favorite thing about baseball is the nicely groomed lines in the outfield! so beautiful! :)
