BREAKING NEWS:
Normally I drive just fine but every once and a while I do something stupid, like going too fast during a rainstorm. This was such a time. I hit a wet patch and ended up in the grass due to a lovely combination of water, stones, and stupidity (going too fast). I crashed into a brick column.
I am not someone who has much faith in humanity.
After all, the people directly behind me and in front of me didn’t bat an eye when I acted like a moron and said “hello” to the sign.
Well, my faith was restored today thanks to these fine people:
First a woman stopped.
Then two men (complete strangers) in separate trucks.
Then a couple stopped. They both got out of their SUV to check on me.
Then a man stopped.
Then another man.
Then another woman.
Then a couple of guys in a big truck. I missed the name of the company on the side.
Then an older gentleman.
That’s a total of 11 people in about an hour’s time.
Fortunately I was not injured…just slightly embarrassed and not going into work.
Now, this blog is brand new and not even Cheezbot is following me. I just wanted to share this and acknowledge the kindness of others. Thank you to those eleven strangers who came to check on me! I greatly appreciated your concern! <3
Eighth Classroom...
After a long painful summer of no luck…
I finally made it as a teacher…
Kind of…
Their usual teacher just popped out her 3rd kid…
Hey, more power to ya…
I was a long-term substitute for 5th grad math…
But I have a BA in Literature…
And an MA in Teaching English as a Second Language…
What the heck do I know about 5th grade math?!
Surprisingly it wasn’t as hard as I thought it would be…
The morning kids were wonderful…
Low energy, just like me…
The afternoon kids were naughty…
And so, so hyper…
But I loved their individual personalities…
And their general mischievousness…
So adorable…<3
White Cherry Blossoms...
White petals flutter
Warm sun, gentle breeze, sunny
Spring has come at last
Seventh Classroom…
It was mostly in the library at first…
A pull out situation for English Language Learners…
Three and a half weeks were spent on ACCESS testing…
Two weeks were spent in the classroom…
Then BOOM: Pandemic…
There was no reason for me to stay at the Grad House so I left…
Well, I picked up UDairy Ice Cream and Ramen from Kumamoto in Newark, DE…
THEN I left…
So really, my seventh classroom was mostly on Zoom…
I did not end up doing the edTPA…
But I have a lesson, materials, and assessments set up to do so…
Swearing...
Sub psychotic rage
Blood pouring from sacred place
The pain of betrayal.
