As far as sucky days go, and on a scale from 1-10 (based on SSS- Standard Suckiness Scale), I think today must've scored an easy 17.5!
On the bright side though, my dad just called and I now have confirmed reservation for my mid-year break. Going to Jordan from 25th Jan. till 8th Feb, exactly two weeks. Yay!!!
This is my light at the end of the tunnel:) (and by tunnel I mean my classes with 4A and 4D)
Seriously, I teach 4 different classes (4A 4B 4C 4D) and so I give the same lesson 4 times. And it's always this way:
4C: Total success! Fun, productive, we laugh and I love my job and feel good about myself. I adore the kids!
4B: Mostly a success, a crazy boy here and there, but mostly controlable and productive.
4D: Unpredictable, could be a success (one in a very very BRIGHT blue moon) or a lesson down the drain. The kids are smart but very susceptible to acting out (VERY).
4A: I run outside my classroom like a maniac! A crazy bunch of illiterate gits!:P
I think "home schooling" is a dying gem of an invention- more parents should consider this option! I will start a "teach your OWN kids thank you very much" support group. Recruitment is open as of this second!
Great suddenly even my blog is acting crazy, all the editing options in my "create blog" are no where to be seen. I can't do anything except type, I can't change the font, add a link, add a photo. And since I haven't slept at all last night I'm sure I made a gazillion spelling mistake and now I can't evne spell check.
I think it's now a solid 22 on the SSS. Yep, at least!
Boy am I cranky:)
I better go and do some "meditation", at least I won't have trouble finding my mantra...
"I'm going to Amman... SOON"
"I'm going to my lovely pizza place... SOON"
"I'm going to hug my fat cat.... SO SOON"
"I'm going to have friends again...SOOO SOO SOON":D
Now THAT is my kinda meditation:)

Hello, I'm your sister. I'm also sleepless. You just brushed me off when I called you. I'm too sleepy to show sufficient horror at that.
Hi, I haven't slept either. Ya3teeki il 3afieh. This suckiness scale thingie. Can it be applied to people? Yeah, you know what I'm talking about.
Ahlan. Nice blog. I'm your sister. I'm tired. Inshallah will make more coherent comments after Friday.
Happy now?
