My first year of teaching has officially reached an end....and guess what? Next year I get a real classroom. I guess the administrators in the district finally read Brown v. Board of Education and decided that you can't actually expect the ELL teacher to teach in a tiny, ill-equipped, broke-ass joke of a classroom. So year #2 should be a real treat...stay tuned.
Today is only day one of my summer vacation (possibly the only summer vacation that I've actually ever earned) and by 7am I was on my second cup of tea and anxiously making a list of things to keep me occupied. Yes, I am that cool.
Here's the list:
budget/pay bills
weed front beds
laundry
swim
walgreens
rearrange bedroom
call piano tuner
call recylcing service
Here's what I actually did:
found the NYT crossword puzzle and did it as fast as I could before my roommate got home
watered house plants
watered outside plants
ate an english muffin
shower #1
did laundry
juggled soccer ball in front yard
added another length of bamboo fencing between my house and MY PSYCHO NEIGHBOR's house
rearranged bedroom furniture. four times.
went running
shower #2
paid bills
went to walgreens
went to library
Which is where I am now. Don't get me wrong, I did not include this list because I think my day was so fascinating, the opposite in fact. I have absolutely no idea what I'm going to do with myself. You can only shower so many times in a day.
Oops, I forgot one thing. Pinche Guey from my soccer team called to ask where tomorrow's game was. And to ask me if I would like to be his girlfriend. I said 'no thanks', which is a step up from the last time he asked me something like that and I just laughed at him.
