Well, Hello Strangers.

    I haven't posted in a while, partly because I haven't had time, and all the exciting things that have happened to be over the past several weeks involve people, that may not want their business all over my blog, so I well relish those memories in my head and with them...and maybe one day in a book where I give everyone a  name that rhymes with theirs.

           But I can share this with you all. I was chosen to be part of the Andy Grammer tour crew! Who is Andy Grammer you might ask. He is this amazingly talented singer/songwriter/beat boxer/ human, who I have been a fan of for years. I am beyond excited to be apart of this tour crew experience and it is hands down an incredibly easy (yet, annoying to some) task. All I need to do, is blast social media with information for his back home tour in my area, and work the merchandise booth at his concert on June 18th, and Center Stage the lofts (shameless plug...get your tickets here and come see me- they are only 20 bucks! cant beat that. ) along with 2 other luckily people. In return, I get yo meet Andy, and get a mini private concert, not to mention the experience! I am beyond psyched! seriously though, check out Andy Grammer. thank me later.   



Enough with Andy Grammer and lets move onto, SUMMER. I am not much of a summer person, but this summer I will be 21... is it weird that I am a little nervous? I guess because, the next age milestone will be 25, when I can rent a car. Sometimes I wish my life was more like GIRLS, minus the really awkward Hannah, Adam sex and more of the Soshisms.

I hope that this summer will be a good one. Maybe I will get a boyfriend, and will no longer be lonely- which one of my lovely 4th graders, Michelle, likes to bring up every single day- oh how I am going to miss her over the summer... where is the sarcasm font when you need it. 
But in all honesty, I will miss my students over the summer. I never really understood how teachers could love a bunch of crazed kids, until this year. I love all my kids so much, even the ones that make me curse the second I shut my car door. They are the highlight of my day, which is sometimes a little pathetic. Of course I have my favorites, but I cannot help it if some students are less punchable than the other (kidding! obviously). Even though I will be working summer camp, I will not have my same babies, they will moving on the 5th grade, with some going off to different schools. but I will quickly love my new bunch, not nearly as much as my first class ever, they will always have a special place in my heart. -there I showed some emotion... happy Blake?
Even i this summer is filled with grand first and adventures, I will not be bummed, I have many more summers to look forward too, and I am not going to stress over a tumblr picture perfect summer. I am not a thin tan white girl will sun in in my hair... RATS- that eliminates all tumblr inspired summers. 
Blog soon. I promise!
Happy 43rd birthday Mama, Miss and Love you!

Here's What...

Let me just start by saying...I love love love television. More than the average person. I watch a wide spectrum of TV from reality shows to BBC originals, to Msnbc, and even Dog with a Blog occasionally. No Shame.  So here's what I am going to do... to homage to my favorite late night talk show (Watch What Happens Live) I am going to do a Here's What every week. Once a week, I am going to discuss three things that I have read, seen, or experienced with you guys.

So Here's What...

1) Red Hot Chili Pepper will be crashing the Superbowl  XLVIII halftime  show with Bruno Mars! Mars, invited Flea and the rest of the gang to
 join him in the halftime show. What a different genre and generation pairing. I am super excited, I love the Chili Peppers. After seeing them live back in September of 2013, I know what an amazing show they will put on. If you are someone with awful taste in music and don't know 
who the Red Hot Chili Peppers are, after you jump off a bridge, 
indulge in the bliss of RHCP. 




2) HBO's 'The Newsroom' has been renewed for a third season! (Hell Yes!) and final season (S#!+) Writer Aaron Sorkin created a genius show about a fictional cable news network reporting non-fiction event that have happen over the recent years. With a slow start to season one, The Newsroom, picked up in season 2 making viewers fall in love with the characters and think about the recent past. The only positive thing about The newsroom ending after Season 3 is that this will be a concluding season. That means that Sorkin can tie up everything and leave us with answers not questions. The Newsroom is reported to begin filming this spring and air in Fall of 2014.

3)The 20th SAG awards are on Saturday the 18th! I totally forgot about the SAG awards- I know, how could I? don't shame me, I am already beating myself up mentally trying to catch up on everything! So here you go on the nominees! Don't worry, Golden Globe winners and SAG winners don't always match!
