Until you mentioned it, I didn’t realize they were related! (twin sisters, huh)

So, in this particular instance, having it be a group or individual project was an option! And I liked that it was an option. I was going to pair up with this other woman and that was good and fine....and then this other woman wanted to join. So, I don’t know....it’s just one of those things. I honestly don’t mind…

It sounds like she was a really great person.

It looks like something a 9th grader in the 90s would put together for their first PowerPoint ever.

Ok, that is making me laugh so hard right now

Ooh yeah, that would suck. Luckily I'm in an educational technology program so everyone is already fairly tech savvy or they're very open minded about using technology and know how to figure that shit out by themselves.

Google Docs has made group work so much better. It’s weird, because I’ve only been out of undergrad a couple of years, but almost none of my groups were using Google Docs back then. Using it means we barely have to meet in person, haha. If we divide the tasks, we can mostly work at our own paces. I really haven't…

One of the annoying thing here is that I’ve had tons of group projects this semester! They’ve gone totally fine, even in groups where I didn’t choose my group members. This one lady though....ugh. I really hate it when people talk down to me or try to tell me what to do (when we’re supposed to have equal positions) so…

Ugh...group projects are terrible.

I’m feeling the same way. I’m a grad student at Long Beach and some of my classmates knew Nohemi Gonzalez. It’s just awful.

Haha. I have long lasting psychological effects from my Dad having a mustache. Basically when I see a mustache I think “Dad” in my head, meaning that I just cannot find guys with mustaches sexy at all @___@

I was 15 and my dad shaved his mustache - he’s had it ever since I was born. I saw that he had shaved it and burst into tears (lol). He let it grow back.

That looks delightful!

Oh dear. Where do you work???

If I weren’t in grad school right now, I’d be living at home. As it is, I’m hoping to find a job near my hometown after graduating so I can live at home for a few years while I pay off student loans. I know people do it, but I don’t want student loans hanging over my head for the next decade (or longer).

A for-profit preschool run by a former model with no educational background in early childhood education? Who the hell is sending their kids there?

Haha. Sometimes I’ll browse random forums I’ve found on Google and once I start seeing those acronyms (DH, DS, DD) I know I took a wrong turn somewhere and ended up with not my kind of people.

Which is worse: Hubby or DH?

I feel you. I recently finished 9 months in daycare centers and it spurred me to go to grad school & get my teaching credential and Masters in education. Not that teachers get paid much, but it doesn't even compare to the pennies that early childhood educators get.

Looking at points C & E together though - I don’t know. If there are less and less spots in the middle class, parents are going to stress about their kids getting one.
