Strangers on the Porch

I had a little scare early this morning.
I woke up a little before six to someone snoring.
This is weird because my bedroom is on the opposite side of the apartment from my roommates.
At first I thought I was making it up, but then I realized it was real.
I sat up and tried to figure out where it was coming from.

Our living room light was on so I originally thought someone was sleeping on our couch.
This is not unusual. One of my roommates is a college athlete.
She often has friends come from out of town and stay in our apartment.
We actually had an NBA player stay with us a few weekends ago.
But I digress.

I figured out it wasn't coming from our living room, but from outside.
My bedroom window looks out over our small porch.
I peeked through my blinds and saw some big black thing curled up against our porch door.
Based on what I thought was going on (friend sleeping over), I assumed it was their dog.
Problem solved.

Fast forward to this morning when all of us were awake.
I checked with my roommate to see who came over and what kind of dog they had.
Only to find out that no one came over. Which means there was no dog.
Cue creepy music.

Both of my roommates suggested I was dreaming.
But I was definitely awake!
I even got up, went to the bathroom, and checked out the window again.

So to wrap up, there was some thing or some person sleeping on our porch last night.
Right beside my window.
Close enough for me to hear them snoring/breathing heavily.
Weird!

We're hoping that it was just a drunk person.
We're on the ground floor so they could have climbed over our porch railing.
Maybe thinking they were locked out of their apartment?
Maybe at the wrong place?
Who knows?!
The good news is nothing happened.
All I know is...they better not come back tonight!

Back to Life...Back to Reality

Well I did it.
I read ALL of the blogs I missed over the past few weeks.

Let me just tell you...it was a lot.
Almost 500.
I finished student teaching on Friday
{which essentially means I'm done with college}
so I had to have something to do!

It was a nice little escape for the past few days.
Catching up on posts in my free time.
Of which I have a lot now :)

So now it's back to the real world.
I can't stay in blog world forever!
Although it's tempting.
Who needs to work and clean and be productive, right?

Anyways.
I'm working on some catch-up posts.
I'm missing my sweet first graders.
But definitely not the early wake-up call.
It's good to be back!

PS Spring/Summer has arrived in Georgia! Nothing like a trip to the botanical gardens 
to get me in a good mood.

One Week Left!

Wow. Time is moving so fast. 
I only have ONE WEEK left of student teaching!
One week!! So crazy.

I've been slowly giving responsibilities back to my teacher.
Now I'm pretty much left with nothing.
I passed both of my observations this semester with flying colors.
My supervisor had nothing but good things to say!
Praise the Lord.

It's so strange to go from teaching everything to teaching nothing.
But it's also really freeing.
I haven't had this much free time all semester!
I actually read a book this week.
Like a real chapter book.
Hunger Games if you're curious.
By the way...totally forgot how that book just sucks you in until you're finished.
So good.

This last week will be spent just enjoying my kiddos and trying to have as much fun as possible.
After next Friday, I'll be back to post about some of the fun stuff we did.

Hope y'all are enjoying your weekend so far!
