I tutor math in the morning. I have about 5-8 kids who rotate through my class and come an hour before school four days a week to do math with me. I treat them well, we do breakfast every so often. I mean, they are getting up early to do math. It has been great [...]

Do not park in my parking spot at my apartment complex. I don’t like it. Especially when I’m getting home late and I’m tired.
Note to the guy with the really big pick-up truck: Do not park in other people’s parking spots, especially when you are taking up two spots, so that they have to park [...]

There are those who say that change is inevitable so we should just accept it, even, embrace it. The world is becoming more vulgar and immoral, and there is nothing we can do to stop it, so we should not even try.

Some times you just need a good glass of root beer. There is a 2 liter bottle of A&W root beer in the faculty room. It’s so nice to go in there and just get a glass between classes.
I’m drinking water too because that is good for me. But the root beer tastes good, so [...]

Do you ever feel the need to ramble? Like you have so many thoughts and half thoughts crowding up your head you just need to get some of them out so you can make room for the important stuff. I get that way some times. There is so much going on inside my head that [...]

As I was driving to work this morning, I noticed something unusual. I was calm. I was relatively well rested. And I was calm. I hate mornings. I am not a morning person. I delay mornings as much as possible. And it doesn’t help any that when I wake up my apartment is cool and [...]

I was looking in my scriptures today, at all the things I’ve written in them. I’ve had them for almost five years now. They look well loved. It makes me smile.
