Well, for the past couple of days, I have had the pleasure of visiting littlehooli at her house in Tom's River, NJ.  I was so excited.  Now, how often do u get to see ur craziest, most sexiest friends in the world? I thought to myself.  Needless to say, I was tickled to my toes to see her and the fam.

Once I saw her, it was over!  We had so much fun.  Her ( Read more... )

I  just came back a couple of hours ago from the Academic Fair that Evangel Christian School had.  I also went to pick up my check that I have been desperately waiting for. Anyhooz, the students are presenting their projects they've been vigorously working on for the past month and a half.  I was feeling uneasy because this was going to be the ( Read more... )

I felt like a failure today. Ok, let me backtrack.

I agreed to become a substitute teacher when my co-teacher asked me. She didnt really give me much time to "think" about it, but I knew I was gonna take it anyway.  I didnt know I was going to start today.  I come in, expecting to still be teaching high school English when my co-teacher comes in ( Read more... )

When I finally give Mrs. Marko my final decision, I'm going to tell her exactly how I feel.  There.  I said it.

Since the incident with 10th grade the other day with my co-teacher intervening, I've been so jaded it's not even funny.  The classes have been so out of control and I felt like I was losing control...and yet, I didnt care.  I really didnt.  It was kind of like there was something within me that just stopped being so "passionate" about making sure ( Read more... )

Something else that's irritating me more every day is my co-teacher, Ms. Bowling.  She did something today that made me feel like shit on a tree stump.  Ok, she's been the primary source of showing me the ropes at Evangel.  Great. Whoopdeedoo!  I share the room with her, so in reality, I am coming in to her space, but she's cool about that, I guess ( Read more... )

Yesterday at school wasnt a good day.  It all started when Ms. Martin, the coolest secretary in the world, called me in the morning and asked if I could come in a little earlier than usual because Ms. Bowling, my co-teacher wanted me to come in concerning "my grades for the students."  I was planning on coming in today earlier than usual anyway so ( Read more... )

Another week of work is done.  School is going okay.  I am starting to really love the kids more and more.  It's good because every time I have free periods in between classes, I never plan to do what I want because I get sidetracked by tons of kids coming to visit me, talk, be silly or whatever else they can think of.  There's a real sense of ( Read more... )
