Don't Wake Me Up....On Repeat!

Chris Brown says it best...don't WAKE ME UP!

Why?

Because right now I am enjoying my holiday 

WAAAAY TOO MUCH!

Third book done, tennis galore, cleaning, shopping, biking and well, 

did I mention I finished reading my THIRD BOOK!?!

Huge accomplishment for myself.

HUUUUGE!

(quick-QUICK get me back to work because suddenly

my idea of being productive is sooo LAME!)

Maybe after New Years?

DONE!

My New GREEN Visitors

These are the birds that constantly surround my apartment building.

Don't believe me....check out what happened TODAY!

It's a CHRISTMAS MIRACLE!!!

(yeah - yeah, I know Christmas is over but I still got the tree up so

BAH-HUMBUG!)

I'm so excited about my new friends I'm sweating.

Why do I always wear grey?

Clearly I am getting  a little bored...probably should start working

Caroling before dinner is a MUST

Too much food - WAY TO MUCH FOOD!

Merry Christmas CANADA from the Desh.

I am slowly going crazy...really.

Sometimes I worry - is this HOW crazy I will be 50 years from now?

Video's like this DO NOT HELP MY CASE!

Merry VEGETABLE SEASON to you ALL

and to ALL a good night !

You got a TIFFANY? No, I had an EPIPHANY!

I had an epiphany.

It happened yesterday while I was biking.

I just happened to have my video camera with me that very moment.

BOOM!

Oh gawd....I can already hear people's eyes roll and well, Rhiannon complaining.

What would she say about this?

Well of course, she has already seen the video...she edits everything I write on this blog.
(that's what little sister's do, pain in the BUTT I say!)

Yelled at me for not wearing a helmet.
Yeah - yeah!

(thank gawd I am the older sister who can BOSS her around!)

Regardless,

THIS MESSAGE IS FOR JL so.... 

....LISTEN UP!!!

;-D

No, I am NOT cute!

NO, No I am NOT CUTE!

Cute face does NOT mean you get to eat my shorts....

...but you still did!

(what a little JERK!)

 And what would be a blog post without a little video?

WARNING

don't judge my CHEESEY baby talk voice....I have no control

over that - its just happens!

UGH is RIGHT!

Selfie???

 CAUTION:

 You are now entering the land of Lauren Wells'sssss thoughts - 

ENTER AT OWN RISK! 

Pfffft - NO! 

A selfie? No-no, this is NOT a selfie! 

I don't take selfies I....

...whoaaaa, how good do my eyes look right now?

I should take a picture?

 Yes, I will take a picture because I'm like soooo pretty!

YUP - my eyes really are pretty!

(song playing in my head - I'm too sexy for my shirt, too sexy

for my shirt, too sexy it hurrrrts!)

Okay - if I really focus harrrd and hold this phone just right,

 I'll be able to capture the best selfie photo EVER!

Otherwise people just won't believe how RIDICULOUSLY 

good-looking I really am, right?!?

Right. 

Good plan Lauren.

Daily proof is NECESSARY!

Done and done!

But when asked, no - I don't take selfies.

Well, rarely.

Okay, occasionally.

Well then, only when I look good - which is often.

So...yeah.

ALL THE TIME!

***IMPORTANT NOTE*** 

These photos were taken months ago and 

I have definitely grown up and matured BIG TIME 

since then so..don't judge too harshly and 

of course I DO NOT TAKE SELFIES ANYMORE!

(Only when I find Tennessee cheer-leading outfits in Dhaka!)

Tennessee in Dhaka? SHUT THE DOOR!

Look at what I found shopping at one of my favourite clothing stores in the Dhaka.

I should have been a cheerleader...

...wait a second, I have to WHAT!?!?

Be ridiculously good looking all the time? And be able to do the splits?

DONE & DONE!

(maybe the splits might need some work)

Boom!

Nothing says getting ready for the holidays with a cheer-leading costumes 

stuffed in your stocking....

Potato Contour Lines Activity - FAILED!

Here is what my students were doing in Humanities
class the other day.

Potatoes in a large TRAY, 
add the same amount of water each time.

Students draw just above where the water meets the 

dry potato....and then we add more water!

hahahha!

CONTOUR LINES WITH POTATOES!

KOOL IDEA but errrr failed!

Why?

#1) Permanent markers don't like water

#2) Old lines kept washing off (or the lines
that eventually ended up under water)

#3 ) The tray was NOT flat.....so it was deeper in some areas than others....ugh!

Clearly NOT the most accurate at all...and the previous lines were washing off!

However, the students loved taking photos 
(each kid had to take 

a shot of their potato!) 
HAH!

Birds Eye View Shot from students...hahah!

Everyone was wet by the end of class....ohhhh well!

More water? YES PLEASE!!!

I was in charge of water...bad news!
Should have given it to someone more responsible.

End products.....and a MESSY classroom with WATER everywhere!

HA!

But that's what you get for not being able to teach contour line the NORMAL way....yeah, I guess I deserved that all that mess and water!

*sigh
And I thought teaching was suppose 
to be easy?
