Hey, how are things going? How is Foothill?
Shelly

Thanks,for the call! You are so sweet! I was going to call you soon anyways.
But, it was nice to hear from you and glad that you are starting your Foothill classes next week!
Shelly

Oh, ok. I wasn't saying that it was better. I meant, it might be an option, if the San Jose State Application didn't have the right skills for your teaching credential. So, I thought maybe looking at another school might have something. I just wasn't sure if you were getting those skills you needed for your credential. Maybe, I misread your blog or something.
But, that is great that San Jose State, has a student teaching at Santa Clara County!

Hey, I wasn't sure if you got my blog comment? Anyways, if you didn't I just let you know that you might want to try to find some other school like Hayward State, or Notre Dame(Belmont). Because, they might have better credential programs. So, do some investigating just like I have with my jobs! Yea, at Farmers Insurance they didn't offer clerical! Well, hope you find what you need.

Yea, this is funny go check out my friend's profile(Annk). On her profile is some pics of me, her, and her other friend at Desert Ridge over the summer. It is under the Hangin' With the Homiez photo album.
Its the first 9 photos! Its so cute!
Shelly

He, he! Thank you. Yea, I noticed the new graphic layout and decided to use it for the background on my profile.
It was under profile themes!
Shelly

Yea, it was nice talking with you on the phone today! My parents, thought it would be great for you to come down and visit! They were thrilled.
Yay!

Aug 27 2008 8:22 PM

thanks for talkin Monday night. It's been kinda weird for me since school ended. Hadn't been able to go on trips with people - so it seems since I didn't go once that I wouldn't do it again? I don't know, but yeah...upsidedown times.
Shelly





Aug 23 2008 8:16 PM

Hey, Happy Birthday! Did you get my message I left you on your phone? I hope you have a good one!
Shelly





Aug 18 2008 2:47 AM

He,he! Aww, thanks Courtney! I appreciate that. I guess, sometimes those things happen. I felt better after going to one of my friend's going away party today(Bible college in Santa Cruz).
Shelly

Yea, if you move back to Palo Alto maybe sometime next year you can visit me here in Az! That would be great. Or, I can visit you in the Bay Area too! When I go and see family.
Amelia





Aug 7 2008 11:02 PM

wow that's cool. i like the palo alto area a lot. it would must be nice to move back home and be with your family.
if you decide to move back we need to get together before you leave ;)
Amelia

How are things with you?

Hey Courtney! What's happenin? Oh, you know, doin the deed. I just got a facebook account...which is really wierd, I didn't think much of it, but the privacy is nice. I've been working, full time, for McCartney still. I'm really hoping to hear from a couple of other places soon!! I had three interviews so far - one for a gov job (they want me but can't have me! haha!), one is for a toy company and was is for a marketing agency that works on toy products!! haha...go figure huh? I can't hang in the freelance design world...it's too erratic and the pay sucks ass. Good for you for the teacher thing! I'm totally for you on that! I hope someday I can be like those mucky-mucks that do speeches at Otis! haha But I won't be an asshole and charge for it.gurl...give me your number...lets go the beach or somethin!
Shelly

Yes, I am going to send him an e-mail! I have already planned on doing that. I have had enough of this cat and mouse game. Something has to be said. But, I think he does it because he's either shy or could be playing with me.
Don't worry, I have a way to settle this!
Shelly





Jul 28 2008 8:30 PM

Yea, moving back to Palo Alto sounds like a great idea. Maybe, find some school there in the area that can help for your teaching credential.
Well, at least you have started somewhere, even with the testing!
Shelly





Jul 27 2008 9:55 PM

I got your xanga comment. I replied, so you can go read it off where you commented on the web page.
How are things going, with your teaching credential? Are you go to move back to Palo Alto?
Shelly

Wow thats close to us. Seems like everyone is moving to Torrance. Andrea gets an entire room for herself and her art.
I get the garage ;)
CHRIS REILLY





Jun 12 2008 6:07 PM

Awesome...where in Torrance? It seems like everyone is moving there. Our apartment is awesome! We have a cool little yard, a 1-car garage, and a large kitchen. Oh and Andrea gets a room for her art.
We are so glad to be out of Park West! Especially after they painted it all those funky colors! Oh and our sink filled up all the time!
