Ugh praxis
I do joy enjoy taking praxis tests. Especially when I neglect to color in the bubbles for my candidate number. Ew.

I'm a terrible blogger.
I hate to say it, but I'm a pretty terrible blogger. You would think it would be pretty easy to remember that I have one of these. Oh well.
I really like paper. Every now and then I have the urge to start making my own recycled paper and notebooks. There is no time! I guess I should just keep the "recipes" needed for all of the little projects I want to do lying around so that when I do have time, I can just jump right in, instead of having to run around. I'll have to find a paper making recipe.
There are a lot of thoughts and ideas floating around in my head that only surface when they feel like it. So its rather frustrating to remember these things when I want to . Can you tell how frustrating that is?
Temple decided to pour on more work at the last minute. They're good at screwing things up over there. I am starting to get the idea that they don't like me. I think I owe them money. Maybe that's why. I should probably pay them. The problem is, I remember when I don't have money with which to pay them.
Sometimes, I diagnose myself with adult ADHD. And then I think that I'm not mature enough for that, and decide that it must be infantile ADHD. Hey, its possible.
I should make movie, and start drawing again. Those would prospectively be two different activities.
I will need to find my SD card. I have my suspicions that Todd has stolen it.
There is no more time for my ramblings.

netbooks v. regular computers
After becoming accustomed to my netbook, regular laptops, and indeed even regular computers seem excessively large...
Especially those computers at the education lab at temple, which are large by normal standards.
I have even become accustomed to the smaller keyboard, so I keep messing up using this large one, too.

ESEA
La ESEA requiere que los estudiantes que están aprendiendo inglés tomen las pruebas estandarizadas en inglés después de tres años de haber entrado al sistema de escuelas de los Estados Unidos --no es suficiente tiempo para obtener una proficiencia de inglés académico. Esta constricción de tiempo ha forzado a muchas escuelas bilingües a reestructurar sus programas y enfatizar el inglés por encima de la instrucción en el idioma nativo. Esta manera dañina en la que muchos estados han decidido implementar este régimen de evaluaciones los hace partícipes del ataque a la educación bilingüe que el gobierno federal está haciendo. (Vea más artículos de trasfondo en www.rethinkingschools.org.)Ummm. It definitely takes more than 3 years to learn a language with proficiency. K?
