I got a voicemail from my grandma today that went a little something like this:

"Hi favorite granddaughter! It's Grandma Wright, did you call us? Call us back!"

I did not in fact call my grandparents, because I am a terrible granddaughter

And I was very confused by this voicemail

until I thought about it

So I called my sister

and this is how that conversation went:

Me: "Hey did you call grandma and grandpa wright recently?"

Megan: "Maybe..."

Me: "And did you leave them a voicemail?"

Megan: "Maybe..."

Me: "HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA VICTORY!"

All Megan said in her voicemail was that it was their favorite granddaughter calling

and I am the one they called back

Marci FTW

Remember that time when I told you about this really awesome family I got to take pictures of? Well I finally finished editing their pictures and I wanted to show some of them off. They are so fun and I loved how the pictures turned out, and I hope they did too! (I would recommend clicking on the pictures to view them larger, they look way better that way!)

Best. News. Ever.

I got a little email today

Saying that my courtesy application has been ACCEPTED!

Meaning, as long as the Gilbert Public School District and Mesquite High School will have me, 

I am Student Teaching in Arizona!

I was not expecting to find out this soon, but I am so excited!

It is so nice when things work out exactly how you think they are supposed to

I sure do love the reassurance!

Well a new semester has started

and I am only taking 10.5 credits

but it is still keeping me pretty busy.

I guess 2 Art History classes and a writing class will  do that to you.

I have not made any art so far this semester, and I miss it. A lot.

Work is going well, but I am very excited to be done in December

and focus on my student teaching

Which may not actually happen in Arizona anymore.

Turns out the McKay school hates me and doesn't want to let me return to my home.

So please pray for a miracle

because that is what it's going to take to get my courtesy placement application accepted.

There is also this person who has been taking up quite a bit of my time.

He is Canadian, which has caused problems with some of my family...

But he is pretty awesome and may make an appearance at some point here on my blog.

We shall see.

I have been thinking about Europe, especially England, a lot lately.

Anyone want to take me?

Also, I need to start crafting/being creative.

Let's get on that.
