Spirit Week - Do you have spirit??

Can you guys remember how to go to school? I mean we haven't had a full week of school since before Christmas!! I know, you seniors are loving it. I do enjoy days off, but I do not enjoy going to school more days in June. But what can we do...absolutely nothing. I could really use warm weather!

So, do you have the Aggie Spirit? I know what some of you are going to say!! Sand Creek is a small school and seems to have a great deal of Aggie Pride. I went to Ann Arbor Pioneer High School and well, it was just too big for everyone to have Pioneer Pride. Yup, I was a "Pioneer." To be completely honest, I enjoyed high school, but haven't been back since. I probably would not be considered one that had much Pioneer Pride.

How many dressed up this week? Will you at least wear green on Friday? Did you take a look around on Wednesday? Which decorated hall was the best? Your blog can be about anything this week, but answer my questions when you write to me! Have a fabulous day.

Empowering Technology

Another quiet day at home. I am sure you all had a great Wednesday. Did you sleep in? I sure did. I probably should have gotten up and done work around the house, but who wants to do that?

I have been enjoying your blogging, but really feel that most of you are just going through the motions. You haven't gotten the hang of blogging. I must confess that I am not the best blogger. I find it difficult to believe that anyone really wants to hear about my life. But I am challenging you to step up to the plate and be more aggressive with your blogging. I also want you to stop with the "text talk." I want full sentences and no missed spelled words. I mean what does "prolly" really mean. It isn't even a good shortening of what it is suppose to be. No credit this week if I see missed spelled words on purpose!!

In your own blog, I want you to tell me the item of technology that "empowers" you. What I mean is what technology do you feel really gives you power. Take a minute and give it some thought. Technology doesn't have to mean computers! A mechanical pencil is actually technology.

Happy blogging!
