Well .. I am a teacher again. I am very excited about it too !! And .. I am teaching my favorite grade .. fourth !!

One of the reasons I am so excited about being a teacher this year is because I wasn’t sure if I was going to be able to teach here in North Carolina. When Stephen and I were talking about moving here, a lot of teaching jobs had been cut due to budget cuts. But, many jobs were posted and I ending up getting one of them.

I am at a really awesome school too. We have a great staff, great PTA, and great parent involvement. All of these things help make the school a comfortable place to work in. I am proud to be on staff at my school.

This is my third year to teach, and my third school to teach in. Ha. I laugh at this. I have taught one year in Texas, one in Colorado, and now here in North Carolina. Who knows where I’ll be teaching next year. Ha. I wonder if I will stay at the same school two years in a row. We’ll see.

Anyway .. I have done a really bad job blogging this summer. I know I need to do better, but I’m not making any promises. I am however going to either take pictures or do a video tour of my classroom. Hopefully I can get that up soon. (Since it has been requested.) Ha Ha.

Check back for that within the next few days.

I finally got around to cleaning the apartment up for the video tour. Ha !! Last time I did this, for our apartment in Colorado, the video ended up being like 7 minutes long. This time I kept it short. Hope you enjoy seeing where we live in our new home of Charlotte, NC.

Going into the finale I liked both guys Ali had left. I was leaning more toward her picking Chris, but I liked Roberto too. I felt like Chris was more ready to settle down and have a family. After thinking about it though, maybe he was too ready for Ali. I think Ali is ready to settle down but still wants to have some fun. I think Roberto is good for that.

I thought it was very classy of Ali to let Chris go before they spent their last day together. She knew already that she was going to choose Roberto so she didn’t want to put Chris through even more heart break. I thought that was a great choice. I also thought Chris was so nice on the After the Rose show. He is such a sweet and mature guy. I hope he finds someone soon that will make him happy forever.

Ali and Roberto looked so, so happy on the After the Rose show. It made me smile to see them so happy. I really hope they stay together and it lasts forever. Not only are they a cute couple, but they are also a very pretty couple. Ha !! They are both very pretty. He He. I got tears in my eyes watching them watch the engagement. It was very sweet and you could tell the love was real !!

Stephen made a comment last night about Chris being the next bachelor. They keep on choosing people who have been on the show before, so maybe. That would be good but I am kind of ready for them to choose someone totally new.

Well .. onto The Bachelor Pad. DRAMA is coming !!

This episode was pretty funny. I love when they show the bloopers. I wish we could see all the stuff that goes on in the house. That would make the show really good.

First I want to start off by saying what a wimp Justin is. He couldn’t even come on the show. That would have been bad I think though because he wouldn’t have been able to get a word in. Plus, he has nothing good to say. He is a loser and knows it.

I promise you .. if I hear Guard and Protect Your Heart one more time .. I will scream. Casey is so annoying with that saying. I thought it was really funny though when he sang to Ali at the end. That was great. Not only was he making fun of himself, but he was also ripping Justin and Frank. It was great.

I liked hearing all the guys talk. I think they pretty much all liked each other, the ones that were there, at least. They agreed on a lot of things. Jonathan was just as annoying on this episode as he was the other shows. He is just majorly dorky. I also love Ty. He had a lot of great things to say and I really think he is just a true, honest, and genuine guy.

Chris N. got more attention on this episode than he did before he was let go. I thought is was really funny that they called him The Phantom and he embraced that with the t-shirt. Classic !!

I can’t wait for the finale. I want her to pick Chris L. I think they can last more than Roberto and her can. I think Chris is ready to settle down and have a family more than Roberto is. We will see though.

One more thing .. I CANNOT WAIT FOR THE BACHELOR PAD !! I am pumped that it looks like Tenley and Kyptin get together. Elizabeth is already more annoying than she was when she was on the season with Jake. And she has blonde hair. Interesting. There is going to be SO MUCH DRAMA. It is going to be insane. And .. Wes .. he is just going to annoy me every second of the show. I can’t believe Gia actually thinks he is a good guy. I mean, come on. Ok .. enough about that. I just can’t wait to watch it. I plan on doing a pre-post about the show in the next week, so look for that.

Have any thoughts yourself?

I am not sure what I think about Frank. I go back and forth between liking him and not liking him. I guess he broke up with Nicole to go on the show or something. I wish he wouldn’t have waited until he was one of the final three to figure out his feelings. It was wrong for him to drag Ali along. It was wrong for him to not let her know about Nicole and his mixed feelings along the way. I really liked him in the beginning, and I do think he is a good guy, I just hate that Ali had to get hurt through the situation. I truly think he came on the show with genuine intentions. I don’t think he meant to have feelings for his ex. I really think he came to fall in love with Ali.

Roberto and Ali were very, very cute on their date. I am glad that Roberto opened up to Ali and shared how he felt at dinner. I thought it was funny that Roberto said he was shocked about the overnight card. Really? How many seasons have there been of this show. That made me laugh. It was a little crazy when they showed Ali taking Roberto’s shirt off. I was like, “Woo !! A little too much.” The small, heart shaped island that they were on was amazing. I would love to be in that shallow water just sitting all day. It was absolutely beautiful !!

Chris is definitely my favorite now. I just feel like he is the most real guy. Ali says that Chris is funny and romantic, and I totally agree with that. He really is just a funny, down to earth guy. They really connected on a deeper level on their date in Tahiti. I love that they were able to do that. Plus he said he loved her and she giggled like she liked it. I truly hope she picks him in the end.

I think Roberto has more of a chance to break Ali’s heart than Chris does. But, who knows.

I really felt bad for what Ali had to go through with Frank. I really do believe he was genuine with his intent to come on the show. I hate that they both had to be hurt in the end by the outcome though. I am sure Ali would have chosen Frank in the end if he would have been there. I think even though they had some insecure feelings, I felt like Ali really cared for Frank the most. She even said she knew he would be there to meet her parents. So .. I really think Frank would have been the final choice for Ali if things went differently.

I am not excited for next week’s episode. I don’t like the Tell All episodes. I just don’t want to see or hear what Casey, Justin, Craig M., etc. have to say. Oh well. I am however, very excited for the finale. I really want her to pick Chris. But, they usually don’t pick the person I want them to. Maybe I should say I want her to pick Roberto so she will pick Chris. Ha Ha !!

It was pretty funny at the end when Roberto and Ali were trying to open the coconut. I like when Roberto said, “I better not piss you off.” Ha !!

Who are you rootin’ for?
