Besack is BeBACK!!

Well, it's been over a year since I posted anything. Not much has happened since then, but we'll see if you can guess what did happen. This is...Two Truths and a Lie.
1. I went to Florida again this last summer
2. I almost died driving home and back to school over winter break.
3. I was actually excited to come back to Rexburg
If you said #1, you are correct. Didn't get to go to Florida in the last year. Bummed out about that. I just want to get done with school so I can move down there FOREVER!! That's why #3 is true. Also, all my friends back home either weren't there or are lame (sorry if you get offended SuperFriends, but you deserve it). And #2 was awesome. It snowed in the Blues going through Oregon. Abe and I were going through over night, so it was dark and the flakes were so big that we could not see more than ten feet in front of us. Barely made it. And coming back home I had to drive through Bend, Oregon. It took about 18 hours to make it. Anyways, looking back this year was pretty good.
So what's going on now? Not much. Just school and work and fun. I'm working two jobs at the school. The one is evening custodian in the Hinckley Building. It's a lot of fun. Pretty much all we do is set up tables and chairs for events and classes, and we clean the carpets. Pretty chill. The other one is working in the new Online Learning Center. It's sort of new where the school is trying to get things going with online learning and online degrees. For now we're answering questions and figuring out ways to promote the program. I can only keep one job, though, so I'll probably keep the OL job just because it pays more and will look better on a résumé. I really like the custodial job.
I'm getting closer and closer to graduating. I cannot wait. If all goes well I'll take classes for another three semesters and student teach in winter of '11. Then I'll be able to job search all spring.

Right now it's the week before Thanksgiving Break. I'm going home this weekend with some friends and Catherine. It's going to be great because I haven't been home for Thanksgiving in four years - last year I stayed in Rexburg and the two before that I was on my mission. I have a lot of homework to catch up on during the break. I guess that's a good thing because then I'll have a lot to do and I won't be bored all the time. And, Mom and Dad can't tell me to do a whole bunch of crap to do because I'll have the homework cop out. I also want to practice some teaching methods I've learned this year on Gatlin and Grant. Get a little dose of El-Ed and secondary school work. And maybe I can teach my mom a few things on helping the chillens with their homework. But, I probably won't.
