20 Get Ups, Positive #14
Today was a FUNNY day. Today is why I love teenagers.
#1. One of my students brought me a bag of gummy worms- because of the slug on my shoe from yesterday! I'm still laughing about it. I mean- how stinking funny is he?!!! I love teasing. His face when he handed me that bag . . . it was priceless. I love it.
#2. I totally embarrassed a student today- not at his expense, so it's okay that it was hilarious to me. We were reading a story, and a character had a large package. Every time I read that line- I laugh. I want to be mature. I do, because the character is actually carrying a gift. But I can't. A large package?!!! Anyway- when we read the line, I made eye contact with my co-teacher and . . . I laughed. And the student next to me, said, "I really hope you're not laughing about what I think you're laughing about. Are you laughing about . . . nope. I don't want to know." Then he turned away. hehehehe
#3. I got my office to myself for about an hour today. I share an office with several other women. Usually we're in and out all day, and kids are in and out, and . . . it's sort of a revolving door. Which is fine; however, sometimes it's nice to be able to sit in the office, with the lights out, listen to music, and be alone. I was productive, and actually completed a task I'd been putting off for a few days because I didn't really want to do it. Getting that time alone today meant I came home, and didn't need time to chill out when I got home. Usually, when I get home, I need about 15- 20 minutes alone to sort of decompress. Not today. Today I was good to go.
#4. A student shared 2 Harry Potter jokes with me: Are you a dementor? Because you take my breath away! Shoot. I can't remember the other one. Doggone it. It was funny too.
#5. I have some girl students this semester that I just love. Generally I connect with my boy students a little better, but this semester I have several girls that are just super sweet and I love chatting with them.
