I just got placed in a new school. I'm going to be teaching high school AP English 12 and creative writing at a performance arts high school. This is what I always wanted to teach, so I'm very lucky. I never thought I'd be ready already though, so I'm going to have to hit the books. Still, there's a sort of romanticism involved with pouring ( Read more... )

I'm going up to NJ next weekend. Kim is going to be there, which is why I was originally going, however I have other reasons. For one thing, two of my good friends, Heidi and Becky, will be moving in August, so I want to see them while I still can ( Read more... )
