Didn't Even Open My Chem Book
Today I spent the majority of my afternoon by the pool relaxing in the sun. Day well spent? I think so.

Vertically Challenged Dictators
Today I began to tackle the daunting task of grading the homework from my world civ class. Because Davis High is currently on spring break, the teacher had a lot of homework due the day before they left for vacation. So I have to power through ninety papers by Monday. Anyway, we are currently covering the rise of Fascist dictators in Europe and one of the required questions in the book was "were Hitler and Mussolini more alike or different?" While most of the answers were about their party ideologies, one of the students responded with: "I think they were more alike. Both were Fascist leaders and both were unimpressive looking short guys."
Smiles are Contagious
Whenever Kyle's in a happy mood, I'm in a happy mood. As you know, Kyle is in a happy mood...
Let Your Light Shine Down.
I was in a good mood all day today. Maybe it was because I hit a triple in softball. Maybe it was because I finally did my laundry. Maybe it was because I made my brother a birthday card. Maybe it was because I picked up a refereeing paycheck. Maybe. But honestly, I think it was because the sun decided to shine (and it was warm). Amazing... just what I needed.

That Thing You Do
Shannon and I have officially mastered the very basic version of the East Coast Swing (dance)... sometimes.

If You Don't Have Anything RIGHT To Say, Then Don't Say It!
Don't you hate it when people in your classes raise their hand to answer questions, but they are obviously WRONG? Well, it's even more embarrassing in a smaller class, say UWP1. My instructor asked a question, so the first year, Asian girl sitting next to me raised her hand to answer it. She was blatantly wrong, but of course, the instructor didn't want to shoot her down. So, he did what all instructors do. Talked about it in circles until everybody had forgotten what she said and she wouldn't feel so dumb. Don't worry guys, I remembered what she said, and I answered the question for her.
