Last week student completed their first exam, I decided to seek a better way then hand writing and grading 77 papers, so I had each student put the information in folder on the class computer, great suggestion right? NOT, I am now thinking of the best way to return the graded information to the students.... read more

Well that pollution and dusk finally caught up to me, Mussinex, Allegra D, and Advil were not working. I even opted to wearing face masks, however last night appeared to be the biggest battle, the compression in my chest was very painful, I was determined NOT to go to the local clinic (HOSPITAL), however, I needed something to help me breath better, I used two drops of peppermint doTerra oils (all natural) and filled the sink with hot water, which created a "vapor steam'", within a matter of minutes when the vapors entered my lungs, I started to feel better, 5-10 more minutes of inhailing/exhaling the vapors and I felt so much better. Then I had some "hot water", with a couple of drops of "lemon" doTerra oil. THANK YOU Mrs. Trudy, for gifting me with ... read more

I arrived to China, three days ago. The plan ride was well, I am sure that every couple of hours I was asleep; it appeared that everytime I woke up it was time to eat. I am spending a lot of time on campus watching and observing students. Today, is the first day that I actually did not have a problem getting on the internet. Goggle, Yahoo, Facebook, etc, are blocked, so I have e-mailed several of you using my Indiana Tech and/or Concordia University e-mail. My telephone is blocked, I can only face-time people who have a IPhone, or a IPad, but I will purchase a new phone on Monday. I will teach 36 students on Monday/Wednesday and 41 students on Tuesday/Thursday, no classes on Friday . . . . . so I can shop ... read more
