Boom, Winh-ing, Duh.

This fruit loop may have coined the term "Winning"...

...but I, Rachel Alaine Cassinaty, have coined the term

"Wihn-ing".

What does it mean to be "Winh-ing"?

It means to be as awesome as my middle-aged professor,

Dr. Donna Winham.

To read the first post I ever mentioned her in
click HERE 

I had her for NTR 450 this semester

and she blew my mind.

Not only she an expert in her field,

she loves the following video.
This is mostly why
the two of us bonded

at all this semester, obviously.

Besides having excellent taste in music and men,

she also happens to be one of the funniest ladies ever.

I began a Word document this semster

and whenever she said something hilarious

I made sure to record it.

On the last day of class,
I confessed to her about my "slight" obsession with her

and she thought it was so funny
she asked me to send her the doc.

Here's how my email to her went

 
and here's how her reply to me went

I just want to hug her.
Now it is time to share with the world
the legend that is Dr. Winham...
here is a small sample of what I sent her.
Enjoy.
And take her class, it's fabulous.

Dr. Donna Winham-isms: 
“Winh-ing” Nuggets of Wisdom

“Bigger’s not always better people,

especially when it comes to babies...

you know how they have to get out, right?”

***

“I dunno when your next quiz is.

I don’t remember dates, I can’t keep that stuff in my head.

If you want to know my high school boyfriend’s number though,

 I remember that.”

***

Dr. W: Why does your boyfriend pretend to be Irish?!

 Student: So he can drink more.

Dr. W: Aww yes. Yes yes. YES.

***

“Don’t ask why, I didn’t make this crap up.”

***

“I need a spray tan before I go to Tanzania. 

My legs are so blindingly white

I’m wearing pants the whole time.

 No one needs to see that.”

***

“Sometimes I think ‘jeez 50 year olds are so old’

 and then I remember ‘crap I’m one of them’.”

***

“I don’t want to see what color your thong is or that piercing in your forehead or whatever.”

***

The following Winham-isms have to do with her favorite band LMFAO.

Did you think I was exaggerating when I said we bonded over that?

Here are a few snap shots from her class one day.

Yeah.

We are LEARNING about LMFAO

***

LMFAO Take One

“I can't focus on teaching you all today because I can't quit thinking about LMFAO's song "I'm Sexy and I Know It". I would send the music video out in a mass class email if it wasn’t unethical.”

  

 

LMFAO Take Two

“Now that I’ve had the song in my head for about 2 weeks, it’s becoming a problem.

 But at least it’s keeping Nicki Minaj’s Super Bass at bay.

LMFAO Take Three

(as I'm heading out of class I notice she is secretly watching the LMFAO video on her computer)

 Me: Are you looking at the video?

Dr. W: Oh yes. 

Me: I love that video...and I love that you love that video. 

(at this point Dr. W is laughing)

Me: It may be unethical since I am your student and you are my professor, but I feel like we should be best friends.

(now Dr. W is laughing really hard)

 

Translation of her laughter: 

After I graduate, it is on....BFF friendship necklaces and all!!!

Winning.  Or should I say...
Winh-ing.
