After I got done with work this morning, I went to the matinee of The Squeakuel at the cheap theater here in town. I LOVED it! I've been wanting to see it since it came out in theaters in December but I was too cheap to go to any of the nice theaters. It wasn't until I went to my Practicum and got to know my third graders that I realized that I needed to see this movie. I wanted to have an 'in' with my students so I could connect with them better. That was the extra push that got me to go see it this weekend, but honestly, I really did just want to see it for my own desires. :)
I have loved the Chipmunks and the Chipettes ever since their cartoon came out in the 80's. I have never grown out of my love for any of those chipmunks. My family used to have The Chipmunk Adventure on VHS, but it disappeared somewhere. :( Fortunately, a couple years ago, I was walking by one of the guys' apartments in my ward and from outside their window, I saw one movie frame on the TV and I instantly knew what movie they were watching. The door was open a smidge, so I went inside and blurted out "Is this The Chipmunk Adventure?!" I know its kind of sad how easily I can identify that movie, but I watched it ALL the time as a kid. And actually, I wouldn't mind watching it often even now as an adult.
This clip is by far my favorite part of the entire movie (and I'm sure many other people enjoy this part too)
Anyway, I gotta get back to doing the homework thing. I'm going on two weeks without Facebook right now! Hopefully I will get back on it within the month after passing those dang diagnostic exams.

Like you need an excuse. :-D Also I think your background is very appropriate.
Way to take a break and reward yourself. And way to work hard and stay focused.

I found the Chipmunk Adventure on DVD at Walmart last summer. I think it was 11 bucks.
