Slacking...

I have been a slacker lately on here. My last post wasn’t since the beginning of the week, and here it is Thursday already. I haven’t been extremely busy – just procrastinating. Maybe I have been waiting for something oh so exciting to happen. If that is the case, I think Id be waiting for a lllooonnnggg time yet.

Today, I have to work until 7pm. You gotta love these 11.5 hour days. It is parent teacher conferences from 3-7. In that 4 hour span, I will probably see 3 or 4 parents (if Im lucky). When it comes to high schools – especially alternative high schools, parents just aren’t as involved as they maybe should be. We have 240 students enrolled. My guess is that about 30 parents will show up. Oh well. I get out tomorrow at 12:30 because of the late night tonight.

Tuesday we had a focus day at school. Focus day – it’s a themed day where there are no classes just speakers and sessions. The theme for this one was music. We had Karaoke, a blues demonstration, and a guy from the music business come and speak to the students. As the grand finale, Cincere (check out his website at
http://www.simplycincere.com) was here to perform for the students. Cincere is a fairly new artist, who sings (what I would call) R&B. He was here because he went to Grandview High School himself. It was cool to see him come back to the school that he was at, and then tell the students his story and how he succeeded.

Other than that, my life has been fairly uneventful. I’m onto knitting another scarf. This one is blue and green. Try to contain yourselves, I know it is oh so exciting.

Note: My birthday is in 19 days. Everybody cancel your plans for December 28. We are all going out to have a good day – even though it’s a Tuesday. Im going to be 24.
