... Twitter has basically replaced my blog... heh heh.
I basically say everything that needs to be said... or that's interesting... on that.
So, there's like nothing left by the time I get to my blog.
But, I will... at the very least... try an upload a month... ish...
There are always things that I remember after the fact and it's kind of stupid to tweet about them after the fact... so, I'll just save that for blog time.
Cool? Cool!
So, yeah... school's going well.
I'm remembering more kids names all of a sudden. Usually I go through this peak where no more names compute in my mind... but, I guess I must've subconsciously upgraded my brain's memory... and more names are coming in.
Why did I just come up with a computer analogy... I have no idea... but, in going with computers... I want/need a new one.
This one gets the job done... but, it being my graduation present... FOR HIGH SCHOOL... yeah, it's basically prehistoric in computer years. I've had this laptop since 2003... that's 6 years. Da-damn!
Now going back to school... I really like my students... and kids in general. It's scary... but, for some reason I keep visualizing myself with kids... I guess working with them and being constantly with them does that to you... but, I'm accepting the fact that it's almost father time for me... and that doesn't freak me out.
Funny thing though... I'm nowhere near ready to get married... but, if I happen to have a kid now... so be it. Weird...
Funny/slash nasty story. I was playing with these 3 second years... and basically was giving them chances to ride on my shoulders if they won a series of Janken (first amongst themselves... then against the student currently on my shoulder... then me). So, it was a chain where they must determine who might be next to ride on my shoulder... then kick the kid on my shoulder off... then maybe after that... they can ride my shoulders... heh heh.
Being second years... there's a big difference from their eye level... and the eye level from being on my shoulders... so, they get really excited about that. Not only that... but, while on my shoulders... I would pretend to trip and bow and topple over to make them feel like they were about to fall... it was all good fun... even if it sounds like I was trying to hurt them... heh heh. The best part was when I would spin really fast. That seemed like their favorite.
In fact... one kid liked it so much... that he ended up slobering on me in his excited state. He had his mouth open and I guess the centripi.. centrifi... centrifuga.. damn... I forgot the word... it was just on the tip of my tongue. I guess the force of me spinning that fast caused some spit to come out of his mouth... and onto my forehead.
It was funny... I laughed... but, at the same time... I was disgusted... heh heh.
I kept wiping the area... and even put some hand sanitizer on my forehead afterwards.
Kids are cute... but, when they're that young... they not the most hygenic bunch... heh heh.
So, yeah... funny story... or so I think.
Moving on... part-time job.
I enjoy... I seriously do. My 5 adult students are more open and less shy about speaking. Our warm-up conversation have gone from a 5 minute activity... to... well... today... it nearly took up the first full hour.
I'm glad that they're more open... and we all have good laughs. Plus... it's much more lax and less serious than when I'm teaching from the book... so, I wouldn't mind if we end up just having a conversation class.
But, that won't happen since I only have two classes left.
It sucks... since I do enjoy the time while teaching them.
But, at the same time... I'm not going to lie... I'm going to be happy to have my Thursday evenings back to myself.
Every Thursday... I wake up thinking... "WHY... WHY DAMNIT!!!!! Why did I sign up for this... today is my long ass day. I just want to sleep... why can't I sleep... and I won't even be able to nap after work because I have my part-time job"
No lie... that's basically what I say verbatim every Thursday when I wake up... even though... well... I enjoy the job... and EVEN THOUGH... I don't really take naps... heh heh... go figure.
It's just... the time before going to the part-time I get too comfortable and... simply put... lazy. So, I don't want to have to go back out and go continue working. It would be much easier if I just went from job one to job two without having to kill those two hours in between.
I also like having the option of napping... even if I don't take naps. Once the option is taken away from me... I feel like I'm subconsciously forcing myself to get sleepy to want to take a nap... only to realize I can't... kind of like a self-fulfilling prophecy... but, not quite.
Anyway... I've just rambled and rambled.
In conclusion... job... good... part-time job... good... life... good.
Got it?
Good!
