Let the games begin...

No, this is not about the impending Olympics.

My summer has begun. Today, I am just resting and unpacking from Nerd Camp. I met some awesome people and feel revitalized from the conference. I can't wait to start working on my lessons and beefing up my curriculum. We had so much fun!

This week's plan...
Lunch with friends
Working out
Reorgainize office
Clean House (parents are coming in for the fourth)

Here's to the beginning of summer.

Doughnuts are important, but so is Jane.

This was said to me at church today.

Nerd Camp

I am heading to nerd camp today. That's right, folks. I'm a nerd and I am proud. Who gets excited about a physics workshop? ME!

I get to spend a week with 20 AP physics teachers where we will learn how to teach this course better. We will also be able to network and work through subjects that we need help with! I am so excited.

Things that most people don't pack when they go to a workshop.

• Graphing calculator TI-83+
• Physics text book
• Solutions manual to physics text

I'll catch you on the flip side. Don't worry...I am stretching the other side of my brain too. I started ballroom dance lessons! (more about that later)

4 days

Four more days of work this year....next work day is August 15th. Freedom....its a funny thing. I am so excited, but I want to be wise with my time. Here are some things I am doing this summer:

• Ballroom dance lessons
• AP Physics workshop
• Beach trip with my friend Jess
• College friends weekend
• Visit the family in the 'Burgh
• Work on National Boards
• Work on AP lesson plans
• Hang out with friends
• Read books for pleasure
• Sleep
• Relax
• Work on the yard
• Sit by the pool
• Work out and finally lose that weight.
  
• Sew my quilt and various other things.
  

I'm not going to be busy at all! HA.
