stupid internet!!

my internet has been down at my apt for a week now. it sucks!! i have to go to the Mac store on michigan ave to use internet. so i am so sorry that i have been absent for a while. i have been working hard but this week has FLOWN by!! it was the first exam for the students and i thought it would be a little easier for me. boy was i wrong. they are running around like crazy and expect me to have everything ready for them. i have been getting to work earlier so i can set stuff up for them. i have never been asked so many questions in my life! it is insane. some of the most basic things, either common sense or stuff they learned the first week, they seemed to have forgotten EVERYTHING!!! i really do like the students in my class, but i will be happy tomorrow afternoon when i can go home and sleep.

I love my grandma!!! i was talking to her during survivor last week, which by the way is pretty good this season! i was saying how tired and sore i was and that i really needed a massage. she, wonderful grandma that she is, sent me a little money to get a massage. hopefully i will do that this weekend!!

i am excited because on monday and tuesday is a new season of the apprentice and of amazing race!! yeah!

k guys, i gotta go. btw i am just putting up a random picture that i took at a hot dog restaurant in town. kinda fun =)

too long with no sleep

I am so sorry that i haven't been blogging lately. my internet has been off and on these past weeks, sorry. I have had a few phone calls from my mother saying that certain people, you know who you are, have been complaining. =) I have been working very long hours with not a lot of rest. two weeks ago i worked 6 days and over 70 hours. This past week it has been 63 hours in 5 days and i have to work all day tomorrow. don't get me wrong, I LOVE THIS! I am jsut very tired and exhausted. i haven't even been cooking dinner, just ramen noodles =( and anything else fast. I am looking foward to next weekend and i will sleep all day saturday and all day sunday. i am sorry that i have no pictures to put up, i haven't done anyuthing that exciting lately. i made my own recipe for a lemon sorbet and i get to try it out this week at school. i am excited about that. i have been watching a lot of 24 lately. i have seen them all already but am watching them again. i just finished season 4 and am halfway through season 3 and 2. i am going to bed soon because i have to be at school tomorrow morning at 8. so i will talk to all of you later. you can always email me, i will try to return them. i miss all of you.
ps this is a great picture of the chicago skyline from navy pier.
