Welcome to my little Den! Here you'll find all sorts of things- mostly blog challenges, but mixed in, you'll notice:

I'm a bit of a fangirl

My life is very busy

I enjoy using emoticons

I don't tend to swear, but stuff happens.

Wow that sounds an awful day. I wish there was a ready solution you could use. It doesn't sound like their minds were open to relating to you, which might be more to do with their usual teacher/student relationship.

Hope tomorrows students will be much better!

This item and entry are both passkey protected. I haven't posted anything on my public social medias regarding any of the above incidents. Plus, I'm a sub. Worst they can do is not hire me again here.

May I assume that it's risky to post anything re students on social media? Americans have been fired over social posts that have nothing to do with work.

12 years old? If so... not as offensive as they can get!

Wow! What a whirlwind!

Congratulations on officially being a Bar Method teacher! Great job! I'm sure that was very hard work.

Keep us updated!

Glad to see you back and glad you got success. I am chilling. Oh my labyrinth idea is pretty much ready for Octoprep and that doesn't start until Saturday. Still 2 more exercises to go with world building. The wolves die spoiler alert. I am down with something but will be okay. I look forward to seeing you in Octoprep. I got contests to enter too.

It's sad that we're still talking about covid. I was hoping that by now...

In spite of all the issues you mentioned you were employed for 2 years and figured some things out about yourself. Kindergarten may be a goal but 5th graders can be exciting if they don't have too much attitude yet. I consider 7-10 the magic age. They really can hold a conversation, interact and think. By that age it's apparent that some are brighter than the teachers (but they haven't figured it out yet) and if they don't cause trouble or cop an attitude they can be a joy. I hope that's your experience. If not, you'll know!

Oh... I don't have the time for a two hour rant! This entry says so much.

I refer to these people as gatekeepers. "We want a litinx ... but ... we want a GOOD one." As if an everyday person isn't good enough.

I've been ranting here about WDC... maybe you can explain in a way that I cannot. 30DBC has been the focus of my rant but it applies to a lot of what goes on. The prompts are geared towards White people, using White language meant to be "non-offensive" and get answered by White people who answer in a White way. They're good people; that's not the problem. But they live in a White world and have no clue how their questions and answers reflect that.

And anything that doesn't fit into that middle-class Whitedom is difficult and controversial.

Too much drama! Fortunately little drama in my life right now. Worry? Anger? Lots! But I remember those long-gone drama-days. Don't want them back.

Never watched this so I had to. Some of those young folks have had classical ballet training is all I'm saying... very entertaining although I'd like to see them do a serious piece rather than just bubblegum glitz.

I think your schedule would exhaust anyone!

As for sleeping... you may have a good point. I'm back from Taiwan and not sure what time or day it is. Tired all the time. Coffee? Yeah, maybe time for that after the long nap I took. It's 23:30 here, still Sunday?

What I would rather....

Have fun answering these “Would you Rather?” questions in your blog today! You can choose to answer as few or as many as you like

Would you rather live a boring, long life or an exciting, short life?
Probably a boring, long one, because life's what you make of it.

You could easily turn a boring day into a fun one.

Would you rather be able to fly or teleport?
I would rather teleport, just because it's faster than flying and essentially does the same thing.

Would you rather be able to only time travel to the past or only time travel to the future?
I would probably time travel to the future, because there is the issue of "what happens if I accidentally change something in the past?" That affects everything that happened between what you accidentally changed and your current time, and might really mess up the time-space continuum.

Would you rather lose your hearing or your sight?
Neither, but if I had to lose one, I suppose my hearing? Like, there's sign language to kinda compensate for that, but for sight, I mean, yes, there's Braille, but there's also so much else you can't do. I feel like being blind limits you more than if you were deaf.

Would you rather live the rest of your life as a cat or a dog?
Cat. I can now say I'm neither a cat nor dog person- I love like both. Buuut, I would rather be a cat for the reason of being able to scratch people and get away with it.

Also, you hear more about people being afraid of dogs, not cats, which means you're more likely to get away with doing stuff to someone you may feel iffy about, than if you were a dog. If a dog bit you, you would probably sue the owner... but if a cat clawed you, you'd probably get ticked, but it also wouldn't be court-worthy.
