Lovelies

Hi wonderful friends. I am in sixth period right now--the kiddos are taking a test. It's a hard test and I'm angry at them. I gave them a copy of the test to study from--yes, the actual test. It's an essay test, so I wanted them to plan it out, etc., before they got here. I gave them two class periods but thye only "kinda" worked during that time. Well, now some of them are asking me for definitions of the basic words in the prompts. Totally irritating. Probably my fault for not being strict enough with them before. Normally, I'm sad when I give students bad grades, but I'm actually hoping to give some of these kids a low score, to scare em, ya know? It's their final exam, so it's worth a lot too. Anyway, I'm venting. Good thing no one knows about this blog. I'd probably be double reprimanded for bad spelling and grammar. Hahaha.

Okay. So I had a meeting with the principal today. He said good things. Nice. :) He gave me some great ideas, but was overall encouraging, and I did a good job at coming across fairly professional. We'll see what he says on the official paperwork, I guess, but it should be okay. Whew.

I apologize for the lack of focus...I have to help students out here, ya know? Actually do my job...

But I'm going out of town for the weekend and it's been a while since I've posted. SOOOO...here I am. :)

How is everyone? Hannah, so glad we talked the other day. :) It was nice to catch up with you and all. And I really am sorry that the downpour of posts came when ou were without internet access. :(

Michelle, how are you? I feel like you're the one I'm most out of touch with these days...hope life is going well...!

Val, any progress on the family on the other side of the pond? ;)

Well, I'm going on this retreat this weekend with the hs'ers at church. Pray for us--that it's lifechanging for them, that I'm willing to be used by God, that it brings God glory!

I love you but I gotta go. THe bells about to ring and they need help turning in their work.
