I am Squidward from the “Band Geeks” episode… 

Yes…. I see it now.  That episode is my every day life.




11:30 and I’m wide awake 

Darn daylight savings time! I’m gonna be exhausted tomorrow if I don’t go to sleep soon!

And this week is the last one before Spring Break, and Prom is on Friday, so everyone is going to be wild and I anticipate very little work will get done. Not to mention I’m gonna have a hard time focusing myself. :P

Let me tell you something about teachers. 

ladyhistory:

I was reading an online article about low-paying jobs today, then read the comments where people were bashing teachers and saying we get paid too much for doing too little and I just…

EXCUSE YOU

LET ME TELL YOU SOMETHING ABOUT WE THE TEACHERS.

Oh no, donuts 

So, the FFA club at my school sold Krispy Kreme donuts as a fundraiser, and since I’m a teacher, a kid sold some to me. They came in today.

I might have eaten five…

They are so good, but I feel like I’m gonna be sick. Bad decision was bad. :P




Out of school early for a potential ice storm! 

Yeah!  The weather hasn’t done anything yet, but it’s supposed to ice and snow this afternoon/overnight.

But they let us out early just as a precaution  :)




My Teacher Blog 

Just for any of my new followers/visitors who might be interested, I also have a blog dedicated to my first year as a band/choir/music teacher in a small town middle school and high school.  Check it out!

I don’t want to go to school tomorrow

Sickkkk… 

firstyearmusicteacher:

All I want to do is nap and cuddle.  Unfortunately I have to go to school.  And my boyfriend is far away.  :( 

So no naps or cuddles for me.

I don’t know, I hope I feel better soon.  I don’t like going to school and feeling miserable, but I really hate leaving my classes, because there’s really nothing that can get done.  It’s not like a regular class where the teacher can leave a worksheet or assignment for them to work on - I have rehearsals to take care of.  :P




Ok… even though things seem terrible right now I have to remember the good things… 

And there are some good things…




I have a snow day tomorrow 

Praise the Lord!!! 

I need a break from school (even though I just got back from it last week…) and just a day to sit in my pajamas all day and relax and not worry about all of my problems - school or personal or whatever.

Also, that means I’ll be able to stay up late watching stupid tv and then sleep in in the morning.

All that’s missing is some good ice cream or something.  Maybe I’ll bake cookies.




Finishing up my lesson plans for tomorrow and watching Evita.  Perfectly relaxing evening.  :)




Goals for tomorrow: 




Ugh. 

I thought I would be able to access my gradebooks from my laptop at home and put grades in here, but no, it only works if I’m on the school network. 

Fail.

Things just keep getting better and better around here.  :(




Bedtime 

Because I have to wake up at 5:30.  And because I feel a sore throat coming on and I don’t want to be miserable tomorrow.

I just want Jon to text me first though.  So that I can go to bed after saying goodnight to him (I’m not going to text him because I know he’s busy).  He’s not very good at knowing when he needs to text me  :P




Things I can look forward to this week 

This has been my first weekend staying at my apartment instead of going back home, and it’s been incredibly boring.  So, I made a list of the fun things I have to look forward to for this week  :)
