The latest.

Okay, so it's been a busy day.

I had to fill about 25 minutes of my level one class. That was hard, but I think it worked okay. I just have to have more back up activity plans so the kids arent bored out of their mind!

There were club meetings today, and that was CRAZY. The club I sponsor voted on officers, and was craziness. I have to have a little talk with one of the newly elected officers because his "spiel" was like something out of a mud-slinging cartoon AGAINST the other kid running. Seriously, where do these kids come up with that. So like I said, he and I are going to have a chat and the club will re-vote during the next meeting. Anymore "negative campaigning" and he is out that door. I wish I would have said something sooner (like during the meeting) ... but I'm new and havent learnedhow to act that quickly on my feet yet...

And I made the dumb decision to go grocery shopping while STARVING. I am not the girl who needs to have cookies, pizzas, and dr pepper. but im hoping this keeps me from going to bk or taco bell every other day. And I bought some candy for incentives because there was a MAJOR sale (wa-hoo!)

I'm going to enjoy my friday night and then try to get some work done tomorrow and sunday. Work = cleaning the place AND well, grading and planning.

Its a good thing we do it because we love it :) Because this would be WAY too much work for just a couple months "off"

I watched a documentary last night, and within the first 10 minutes it made me think of a student and that mentioning the movie might give us a better rapport. He's a kinda shy student.

When I wake up, the first thing I think of is what I can do for my class or classes.

I think I picked the right profession. :)
