Big Bang Theory
One of my favorite sitcoms is The Big Bang Theory. Chuck Lorre and Bill Prady do a great job of writing and producing the show. My fiancé and I cannot get enough of all of the characters. Our favorite character is Sheldon Cooper, who is played by Jim Parsons. Sheldon is this extremely intelligent physicist that does not know how to relate with others. Every episode Sheldon and his geeky friends are getting into some kind of hilarious situation. My fiancé and my's inside joke is to use Sheldon's saying of "bazinga!" when we say something that that burns the other person. The Big Bang Theory is on Thursday nights at 7 pm on CBS.

My writing process
My writing process is vey simple. I usually end up procrastinating way too long on assignments that I end up forcing myself to sit down in front of my computer and start to write about anything that comes to mind. On times that I actually start with enough time before a paper is due, I start with small bits and pieces of it. I like to try to map out what I want to write about and how to attack it. Sometimes, I write the introduction and then the conclusion before writing the body. I wouldn't say that I have a process, it's more that I have to go with whatever my brain is telling me how I'll write that day and go from there.
Interesting teacher blog
http://firstgradefresh.blogspot.com/
This blog belongs to a first grade teacher. I found this blog while pinning on Pinterest and thought it was interesting because education is my major. This blog include tips on how to organize and decorate your classroom, how to design anchor charts that will spark your students' interest, and great teaching tips. I liked this blog, because it was done by a young teacher that follows the traditional way of teaching with her own creative twist. She also includes information about her personal life too, besides just teaching.

Snow White and the Huntsman
Recently, I saw the new movie of Snow White and the Huntsman. My expectations for the movie were not very high. I have to say I probably had this opinion because one of the lead roles was Kristen Stuart. To say it nicely I'm not a fan of Kristen Stuart. The hype that is all around her I do not understand. after watching the movie, Kristen does an okay job. I really liked how this movie is based upon the story of Snow White, but it is not the familiar child's fairytale we all know. This movie is dark and at some points it could be scary for kids. I like the twists that the writer and the director did with the story. The two actors that did stellar jobs were Charlize Theron and Chris Hemsworth. Charlize played the evil queen, who is extra dark and mean. There were points where I was actually scared of Charlize. Chris Hemsworth plays the huntsman. He does a good job of playing this rough manly guy that has a horrible attitude. The ending of Snow White and the Huntsman was a little disappointing to me. I wanted a little more out of the ending. In all, I would say do not see this movie in the theater, but do rent it. This movie has action, suspense, and love. It's the grown-up version of a fairytale.
