I want to burn the school of education to the ground.

Is it too much to ask that:

- they be at least a little organized? I'm the least organized person I know, and I am more organized than they are.

- we learn how to teach art in the arts methods class? And not how to write lesson plans. I know how to write...

I agree with Gillycat. Stick in there sweetie, we NEED TEACHERS LIKE YOU. Our kids need teachers like you.

Keep your heart big and your mind open. If you do it will take you so far in teaching.

Like teachers aren't already lacking inspiration and large paychecks, now the schools have to be crappy too?

LAME! Well, You Will Survive and GRADUATE SOON! Just concentrate on that! kiss

Just got out of the shower... didn't wake up until 11ish. But I felt good, like I slept hard all night. I had a weird dream:

SPOILERS! (Click to view)

A lady's mother was brutally murdered in the girls' bathroom of a local high school. She was killed, skinned, and chopped up into little chunks. Half of those chunks were left in the bathroom, under...

Funny story, here...

So, remember my sudden turn for the worse, last night? It wasn't the cold I already had, but the cold did kind of cause it.

You know how rancid milk smells/tastes? You know how you can't smell/taste anything when you're sick?

Yup... I had food poisoning. (LittleFierceOne informed me, this morning, that the milk I had on my cereal yesterday morning...

Duuuuuude! No more plague! Seriously, this is NOT cool.

I was feeling better for a few days, but, now, I have a fever. My immune system is like the weather... I'm sick, I'm better, better still, better still, then WHAM! FEVER CITY. Dammit!!!

I'm resting up, tomorrow, as my fever was 99.5 at 8, and is now 100.3... even if I wake up without a...

I feel your pain. I just finally stopped coughing after literally a month. It kept ebbing and flowing like yours. Man, that's annoying. kiss

So, we've been having a few days of spotty internet, all of a sudden. It caused much stress and frustration, especially considering it happened around the same time as Time Warner Cable decided we didn't deserve to watch Battlestar Galactica for free. (bastards) There was NOTHING to do.

Well, we fixed the internet problem, finally (or, should I say, LittleFierceOne fixed the problem - thanks...

SNOWSNOWSNOWSNOWSNOWSNOWSNOWSNOWSNOWSNOWSNOWSNOWSNOWSNOW!!!!!!

YES!

Even though I have a cold and feel kinda crappy, I don't care - because it's SNOWING! Right now! And even though I'm sure it will be raining and gross later, I refuse to think about that. It's hard to look away from the window, it really is...

I might still have class, today - normally, I would be there, now, but my...

Thanks biggrin...yes, it finally snowed here too! And I didn't have to go to work. Of course I will have to pay for it tomorrow...but I really don't give a damn. I'm going to enjoy a nice lazy snow day...and I hope your day is great, whether you get to stay in or not. kiss
vampirate:
"...[A]ll sniffly and pissy in class" makes it sound like you're both allergic and incontinent, which, you know, makes me snort-snicker a li'l bit.

I don't do this often, but time doesn't really permit to write up a whole new entry, so I will copy and paste from my other journal, hope you are all well!

I'm still relatively angry at the world in general, but I'm not as stressed about it. I don't hate as much. Why? Because I have a fourth grade class, readings and assignments that...

Of course you are the hot nerdy teacher!! wink
Isn't it funny how exercise tireds us out, yet gives us more energy all at the same time??
I love when I have something to do!! Assignments, readings, etc. It may be a pain in the ass sometimes, but I like to have goals/deadlines!!!

I was productive this morning! I did dishes, took out the trash, sorted and took out the recycling, did my taxes and checked email... (there's still a lot of cleaning to do, but if you saw our kitchen, you'd know how much work all that was!)

I have earned some hang out with me time (which will probably result in me falling asleep after eating...

Please, go give LittleFierceOne the support and love and encouragement he needs and deserves... I can't say anything to make him feel better, and I'm worried about him. frown

It's really hard to be happy when the person you love more than anything is so depressed...

It would have been nice to have one snow. Usually I don't hope for it...cause it never really snows good here, just ices over, and it's hard to drive, so it might as well be unseasonably warm. (Which is nice...except when you remember that it's probably cause of global warming.)
I don't think that's Winston's ear in the pic, I think it's light hitting the space between Torch's butt and tail. smile
schiavona:
That penguin is so adorable! smile

Okay, I'll go poke at him and see if it moves. wink I know what you mean about the depression and how it effects you. I'm positive Karen is frustrated all the time with her inability to do much to help me with my depression. Hang in there, and if you need to talk, give a call. We're definitely here for you. Maybe we need to drag him out for some fun??

Enough about school and all the shit I have to do this semester! Penguins!



My friend put this up on YouTube. One of his coworkers took the video, though he got lots of pictures.

He's a janitor in the Antarctic. (I know!) This little Adelie penguin wandered into town (The McMurdo Research Station)... it was probably a bit lost and freaked out, but...

So, it turns out my Mon, Wed, Fri class is really a Mon, Wed class. Meaning I have Fridays free. (Don't tell my job, though!)

They're not really free, anyway. I have 30 hours of service I have to do for one class, 15 of those are for a family to which me and another student will be assigned. Hopefully, I will like my family,...

Geez, sounds like you need to get started!

Haha, yeah, you have to watch what you say in my journal!

Having no pets, I'm not so worried about the fleas thing. When it gets warmer, I'm just not so lonely.
