Roses, buds & thorns
 
Cute idea from Delta Zeta and Pi Beta Phi forums:

Rose = Something good that happened to you this week
Bud = Something You're looking forward to in the next week
Thorn = Something not so great that happened in the last week

For example:
Rose = Paid all my bills
Bud = Both kids go back to college this week
Thorn = Both kids go back to college this week

Surely you younger DGs have more interesting roses, buds & thorns!:D

BGanchor 08-09-2004 03:16 PM

great thread!

Rose- I spent an amazing weekend at the lake with my roomate and two other best friends from school!

Bud-I get to go back to school soon!!

Thorn- I'm going through an appeal process at the Community College for my summer class becuase my 90 year old teacher gave half our class Ds. Its not looking good

deadbear80 08-09-2004 03:38 PM

Here's mine (and yes, I'm cheating):

Rose1: I got my Law School Schedule and got 2 of the Profs. that I wanted! (I'm a 1L--we don't choose our schedules or our Profs.)
Rose 2: My summer class group finished our power point and 20 pg. paper last night :)
Rose 3: Today was the first weekday since sometime in May that I didn't have to be somewhere by 8:30 AM (I HEART SLEEPING IN)
Bud 1: I'm going back home for my '5 day summer vacation' on Friday.
Bud 2: I'll be done with all of my Social Work classes for a whole year on Wednesday
Thorn: My group still has to turn in our final group paper and give a 20 min. presentation on said Wednesday.

Hope everyone else has a good week.

ITB,
Robyn

Wow DGMarie, it may be freezing and snowing, but at least you're in PARIS!! WOW!!
Congrats to you AUDG! You'll be in the land of all my relatives. Get some warm clothes - it snows up there in the mountains!

Rose: I have decided to attend ...for grad school! I'll be getting my Masters in School Counseling!

WhiteDaisy128 05-19-2005 06:24 PM

Rose: I just got offered two jobs in one day!!! A 3rd grade position and a 5th grade position. :-)

I finished student teaching in December of 04 and taught two back to back interim jobs (5th and 2nd grades), so this will be my first OFFICIAL year of teaching...I'm thrilled!! I don't know which one to pick...I'm leaning towards the 5th grade because it's on the team I student taught with (and I **LOVE** them); but 3rd would be fun to (just in different ways).

AUDeltaGam 05-19-2005 07:58 PM

Yay CJ!:D

WhiteDaisy128 05-24-2005 07:37 PM

I formally accepted the 5th grade job today! Yay!!!

hannahgirl 05-24-2005 11:30 PM

Congrats!!!!

Now if only I could find one here! It's looking as if I'll be subbing again next year.....:(

WhiteDaisy128 05-25-2005 05:19 PM

Girl, you have got to move down here...there are SOOOO many jobs open!!!!

JohnsDGsweethrt 05-27-2005 04:35 PM
