Andrew's Blog: September 2009
http://amendoza87.blogspot.com/2009_09_01_archive.html
Wednesday, September 30, 2009. Sometimes I forget to write in my blog until someone reminds me that it's here. Anyhoo, it's been a while, so LIFE UPDATE TIME! 1 I've started working at UCLA Lab School, formerly known as University Elementary School, as a full time TA for 5th grade. In a closely related subject, I am now officially getting old. The kids call me Mr. Mendoza, I'm paying rent all by myself, and I don't go out past 10pm if it's a weeknight.

Andrew's Blog: My Top 5 Saddest Moments in TV/Movies
http://amendoza87.blogspot.com/2013/03/my-top-5-saddest-moments-in-tvmovies.html
Friday, March 8, 2013. My Top 5 Saddest Moments in TV/Movies. 5 The End of Selena:. 4 The Up Montage. If you did not cry the first time you saw this, YOU ARE NOT ALIVE. No one warned me that the first time I saw Up (and every time thereafter), I would be crying my eyes out within the first 10 minutes. For a four minute time frame, it has got to be one of the most powerful montages out there. No dialogue, no words, just a beautiful, moving story. 3 The Annihilation of the Straw Hat Crew. And there you hav...

Thursday, June 23, 2011. 1st year of Grad School Recap. So it appears I've been neglecting my blog. for a while. And by a while, I mean almost a whole year. Oops. I've been meaning to write in it, but so much time had elapsed that I just figured I would wait it out until I was completely done with my first year of grad school. And that day comes tomorrow, as I finish my last day of student teaching. Subscribe to: Posts (Atom). 1st year of Grad School Recap.

Andrew's Blog: July 2009
http://amendoza87.blogspot.com/2009_07_01_archive.html
Thursday, July 30, 2009. I realized that my past few posts have been me ranting about stuff I didn't like, so I decided it was time to write about something of which I revere: The Westwood Omelette. Tuesday, July 28, 2009. Music on the Radio. So I was driving home on the freeway today, flipping through my radio stations like I usually do, and I hear this catchy song, and I think to myself. "wow, maybe there's actually something good on the radio now! Friday, July 17, 2009. The Worst Apartment Ever. 4 Flo...

Friday, August 27, 2010. Usually, when I write a blog, I have something exciting or amusing to write about, but that is not the case tonight. Tonight, I am just bored with nothing to entertain me, and so I am going to ramble on here about who knows what until my boredom is satisfied. So. what to talk about. 1 High School Grad Night at the Bowling Alley. This one I didn't really have a choice because it ended at 6am and that's when parents picked everybody up. Saturday, August 14, 2010. 1 Visiting Montezu...

http://amendoza87.blogspot.com/2010/08/wall.html
Sunday, August 8, 2010. I recently got back from my WALL (Wilderness Adventures in Leadership and Learning) experience in Unicamp. Ever since I joined Unicamp, being a WALL advisor has always been something I've wanted to do, and this year I was lucky enough to have had the opportunity to do so. Was it everything I expected/hoped it would be? Well yes and no. It was definitely a good overall experience, just different from what I had anticipated. Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom).

Andrew's Blog: January 2010
http://amendoza87.blogspot.com/2010_01_01_archive.html
Saturday, January 16, 2010. I had an interesting experience the other night. As I was sitting at my computer around 10pm, the power went out. The loud hum of my roommate's desktop computer died, and the room went completely black except for the glow of my laptop, now living off battery. Well, lesson learned. I'll just have to suck it up these next 5-6 months. Who knows, maybe there will be another blackout some time. :). Subscribe to: Posts (Atom). Awesome Inc. template. Powered by Blogger.

Andrew's Blog: Arizona Trip
http://amendoza87.blogspot.com/2010/08/arizona-trip.html
Saturday, August 14, 2010. Well, my family has returned from another successful trip to the great state of Arizona. Why Arizona, you might ask? We like to go to places where it's really hot so we can walk into air-conditioned rooms and it feels really good. But seriously. it's really hot over there. 1 Visiting Montezuma Castle and Montezuma Well. Montezuma Castle looks like this:. And the Well looks like this:. 4 Watching a group of Cloggers at the Square. Clogging is the dancing where you make lots ...

Saturday, September 4, 2010. Why is it so hard to let go of these nonliving, nonuseful things? Didn't this mean something to you? Perhaps what scared me most is that once thrown away, those memories may eventually be even forgotten given enough time. And in a time when my job, relationships, and future are still so uncertain, I guess holding on to those things meant more than I had realized - it meant holding onto something that was a concrete and real part of who I was. Oh, and these stuffed animals:.
