It’s… whatever.

[Lol, my brain is in a million places at once, and I'm running out of time before I have to cook, etc.  So... I'm posting this, even though it is just general ramblings with no sense of order. Enjoy.]

So… 2 weeks later I can finally say that my dream came true – I got that new student today. As is always the case with new students, I never want to say too much immediately because kids tend to come out of their shell after a few days of acting like angels… but this new student is adorable. First of all, I was glad to get another girl, my boys have been outnumbering my girls all year and I like having some form of balance… now things are a bit more even. Plus this little girl seems really smart, so I won’t need to catch her up on too much, which is a relief. Yay for happy days.

Meanwhile… I’ve had boys on the brain for the past week.  I feel like I’m back in high school again.  Actually, that’s a lie – I went to an all-girls high school so boys weren’t even an option, but you get my point.  I guess you can say, I feel like I’m tired of being single.  On the same hand, I can totally see the benefits but on the other… it’d be nice to have someone.  I may go into more specifics in a later blog post.  We’ll see.  I hate harping on being single, mainly because I feel like it’s annoying.

In other news, the weather is getting warmer again.  We’re due to be in the 60s-70s all week and while you’d think that would be nice… I’m not ready. I mean, yes, 70 is actually quite the perfect temperature… not cold at all, slightly warm… but we barely got a winter!   It’s okay though, this is the time of year where, for the next two months, it’ll be super warm one week, then dip back down super cold the next.  It’s kind of… frustrating.

That’s all I’ve got for today. My mind is like ADD today, can’t focus at all. Sorry!

  • Unfortunately (or maybe fortunately, depends on perspective) I've been single more than once. Hated it. But ... and I know this sounds kind of counter intuitive, sometime it seems like the "best" way to actually find someone who will help you become unsingle, is to simply quit looking. When it's supposed to happen, it will.

    As for you student, it's sounds like you have fun being a teacher. I've sometimes thought that might be a good career for me after the military ... but then I get honest with myself, and realize that I'd have a hard time telling the kids not to goof off ... because I'd be too preoccupied goofing off myself ;-)
  • You are so right about kids breaking out of the angelic shells after a few days!!! I learned that lesson the hard way!!!
  • So glad you got a pleasant munchkin! My brain is often a little...less than awesome. I feel ya.
  • Glad your new kiddie is nice. I am so happy that its raining today. With all the snow we just had, I feel like we've done winter properly now. Time to warm up and have some spring weather!
  • Congrats on the new student, glad she's sweet! The weather has been warmer here too, which is great. I've been looking into Disqus recently - do you like it? Is it easy to use and configure?

    Does the little girl have the same name that was in your dream?

    I went to an all-girls high school too. But being single has it's ups and downs, I suppose. The biggest thing I missed when in a relationship was being able to go out and just party with the girls. But I still can't really because Mike will get mad and when I'm living with him for some sort of financial stability... Yeah...

    It's been between 60-70s here lately. But it's cold at nights. It'll become cold again in a bit.
  • I'm so glad to hear your new student has turned out well. I wish it was maybe 50 degrees here. The high this week is supposed to be around 38... and that's warm! haha!
  • My 8th period has 23 girls and 4 boys. Let's just say that this lack of balance is... is... annoying. The girls NEVER shut up, I mean never! I'm glad that your new student helps to balance out your dynamics and that she is smart. So often it is a ton of work to catch new students up!
    And I feel ya on the sick of being single thing :(
  • Re: the new student, I told you everything was going to be alright, and it will keep being that way.

    Re: being single; I know there's a guy waiting for you. Whoever you choose to be with should consider himself lucky for being with someone like you.

    Now, if I only lived in TX... *sigh*

    Re: the weather... you guys are getting warmer temperatures, while here we're getting a tornado warning... some weather! I wish I had a waterproof case for my D90... I love walking in the rain, it'd be awesome if I could take my camera with me...

    Re: your today's photo. It's awesome! I like the full body one best, though... but that's just me.
  • 60s and 70s.... want to trade? 8-12 inches of snow coming my way tonight. fingers crossed for a snow day!

    It's interesting how you say about the balance regarding the kids. Recently here there's been a lot of talk about gender balance regarding teachers. Numbers of male teachers, especially in lower grades, are very low. It seems that public perception has a strong effect.
    About being single... I'm sure it has its benefits. But I know what you mean.
    And the temperature thing... it sounds like Brisbane! Where did the winter go!? :)
