| xanga's the place for angst-y song lyrics, right??
the tall blond lets out a cry of despair,
says "I would have cut it myself if I knew men could climb hair
I'll have to find a another tower somewhere
and keep away from the windows"
hehe - all the disney fairytale princesses get all snarky. good times.

| from a guy who I'm unfortunately not interested in:
"I've seen you three times this week; that's a present in itself."
I guess that should probably be the end of productivity at THAT coffee shop. Sadness. In the interest of full disclosure... call me, if you want to know.

| 8:13 am (Before homeroom) Notice cool girl #1 wearing previously discussed non-uniform
shoes. Inform her that they're very cool, but, as previously discussed,
expressly forbidden by dress code, hence, she'll be receiving a parent
memo from me later this afternoon.
11:20 am (While
lunch-monitoring) Notice cool girl #2 wearing previously discussed
non-uniform shoes. Wonder if this is what losing one's mind feels like.
Look for cool girl #1, whose shoes now meet dress code... hmm. Inform
cool girl #2 that she will also be receiving a parent memo.
11:35 am Return from lunch monitoring. Write parent memos. Put with materials for teaching 7th grade math.
2:21
pm (7th grade math begins) As students walk in, notice cool girl #3
wearing previously discussed non-uniform shoes. Look at cool girls #1
and #2 feet. Kosher. Hmmm... make note to discuss after class.
2:48
pm (7th grade math) Monitor practice work of scientific notation
problems. Notice cool girl #3 wearing especially large, beat up shoes.
Wait, boys shoes. Walk the aisles... yes, notice cool BOY wearing
previously discussed non-uniform GIRLS shoes.
3:03 pm (After
bell rings) Write and distribute remining parent memos, asking all
students what kind of friend gets in trouble and then makes you do the
same thing.
3:15 pm (Middle School Office) Tell secretary and
two other teachers the story of how I got to write 4 different parent
notes for one pair of non-uniform shoes. And how one was to a boy. Hee. | | |
| I heart my sixth graders and they heart me! A not-so-random selection
of comments from my mid-year evaluations (as always, wretched spelling
and near unrecognizable grammar is from the pencils of the kiddos):
- "Miss E your a great fun and interesting teacher!! Do your thing!"
- (Responding to This teacher cares about me as an individual) "Yes, she makes sure no one is upset", "She's given grace to me countless times", "She takes time to help the confused people"
- (Responding to This teacher manages the classroom effectively) "As well as she can! (it's not easy)"
- (Responding to This teacher is very knowledgeable in this field) "Even says she loves it!"
- "Maybe if something like a pencil that fell out of our binder you could give some mercy"
-
"It's funny when you do the dances!" (That would be the multiplying
fractions dance - you don't know it? It's all the rage in the clubs...)
- (Series of comments on every question) "Agree... Cha!.... Totally!... Way..."
- "This teacher is God's gift to us students."
All of these are culled from the usual "more games! more candy! less homework!" which I will kindly NOT oblige. Hee. | | |
