Games We Play
Okay, this came to me at church. I know, I know. Don't kill me. It's not really good enough for anyone to get offended over.
On the roof of an abandoned warehouse lay a cluster of dark figures, gazing up at the moon. Their pale skin glowed in the bright moonlight and their forms were unnaturally still, not even a breath interrupted the quiet of ( Read more... ) -
Teenagers = Headaches
I got into a "fight" with a student today. Basically the student hates my class and her whole attitude screams it during rehearsal. Of course the student (not using pronouns, confidentiality and all that) doesn't admit to any wrongdoing so I'm being extremely unfair by accusing said student. I had a small crying fit in the bathroom after the ( Read more... ) -

I want to bury my head in sand. Or at least some of my student's heads. Deep.
I seriously wanted to be the laid-back teacher with a good group of kids. But no. They had to summon the monster. So be it. *girds loins...or whatever it is females do in battle*

In-and-Out Service
*sigh* I got up at 6:45 and got all dressed and combed my hair and EVERYTHING. And there was no in-service for the new teachers today. I'd feel dumb, but since it overlaps my general cluelessness of late it really doesn't register ( Read more... ) -
Adulthood. Sucks.
In-Service officially starts tomorrow. I can't decide if I'm excited or scared. Well, one thing's for sure, I'm ready to start something. God knows I've been bored out of my mind the last couple days. I can only watch so much Animal Planet before my brain explodes from the cuteness. My poor neighbors are probably getting tired of the ( Read more... ) -
Spartans!
Apparently the movie 300 has taken over the minds of our male populace. Don't get me wrong, I think it's a great movie, but if I start to hear the random yell of "Spartans!" all over campus I think I'm going to have a fit ( Read more... ) -
