I’m exhausted. I worked all day and then hung out with Jake (i.e. babysat) until about 9…seriously going to be so glad for break next week!

I’m not sure how much of a coherent entry I can make because all I can think about is crawling into bed but I had some random thoughts that I kept making mental notes to myself to save to expand on in an entry but I figure I might as well just make an entry of my thoughts today…

-I don’t understand sometimes how my students cannot add basic numbers when they are given a) a number line b) a calculator c) an addition chart and d) they have 10 fingers! Seriously it amazes me that 5+2 can go over their head but ask them anything about anything else not related to school (i.e. Rey Mysterio, dogs, Naruto, Spawn, girls, Las Vegas, Washington Redskins, celebrities, how to run your life, etc) and they could tell you from A-Z.
-Do students really not realize how obvious they are when they’re faking illness to get out of work?
-Rey Mysterio fails at life. Your signature move should also not be named after the San Diego area code.
-I’m not very sympathetic to tantrums. I’ve also no sympathy for teachers who cater to tantrums and then wonder why their student repeats their behavior. Well duh you gave into them and let them escape doing their work!
-I’m apparently a horrible person according to my students because I make them do work! Oh Em Gee. Call the cops. Better yet, call a whambulance because otherwise I don’t want to hear it!
-Six Flags on Thursday should be interesting as I have 3 students in my group that I’m in charge of and they’re quite awesome … I just hope it’s going to be a good day!
-Either way it doesn’t matter because I’m not working with Jake on Thursday night and Friday is a half day with potential happy hour at night with people from work!
-Just because I’ve only been working for a month does not mean I cannot be excited for a 2 week vacation! I’m damn well going to be excited and I’m going to enjoy the 2 weeks of being a bum!
-Starbucks guy should not be offended at what I say to him! He told me he wanted to help me pick out food and tell me about each item and I responded, do you not think I can read? How was I supposed to know he wanted to tell me about his taste palette? Furthermore, do you think I really want to hear about your taste palette? No it was not a low blow, you just annoyed me! You also annoyed me by not finding me a wrap so therefore you fail.
-Best news in the mail today! I got my contract in the mail for the fall for the synagogue and after 2 years of working there, I got a raise! It’s about time! And apparently I’m working both sessions so I cannot complain!
-I do not appreciate being felt up by an 11 year old or being asked if I’m pregnant! But it’s hysterical because he doesn’t realize how obvious he’s being when he tries to cop a feel so it’s hard to keep a straight face in reprimanding! Am I a horrible person?
-In listening to Eyal Golan’s song, Jungle…I can’t help but wonder if he really thinks Africa is one huge jungle?
-I wonder why at any Jewish wedding I’ve been to (with the exception of Lelia’s), I always hear the song Balbelli Oto (Confuse Him) by Kobi Peretz. While I adore the song, I wonder why a song called Confuse Him being played at a wedding? Should all confusion be done with?
-Glee=<3. Enough said.

Odd thing I realized today thanks to Dana and I’m quite amused to know this…my birthday is September 2nd. This year it is:

9/02/10.

It took me a second and if it’s taking you a second, it’s 90210 – like the tv show (which I used to love as a kid!). Knowing this makes me smile because my birthdate is awesome as it was and this just made it 9232958958x cooler.

Dear Michael Leighton

I was a bit doubtful that you would start in goal tomorrow but I’m glad that Laviolette chose you to start in goal. I just hope you and the rest of the Flyers can pull this off tomorrow and force a game seven! I will be rooting for you! Please please please don’t fail.

Love,

Me

And with that, g’night!
