Boots

I was in a search for boots. Boots are always in for the fall. It's this whole Rory Gilmore obsession with boots creaping up with me. If you have ever seen the Gilmore Girls you will agree that Rory uses A LOT of boots. So i went on a search...the search took more then 3 weeks. I finally gave up. Either i could not find the boots i wanted or they were to expensive. I was speaking to K.lo the other day and we started speaking about boots. She said that they had some boots in Old Navy she wanted and she was never able to buy because in PR it was to hard to find. To make a long story short, I went to old navey and left with 3 pairs of boots! Two for K.lo and one for me! And the best part of the story!!! They were 50% off!!!!!

What happened to carefree school days?

Middle school is not what it used to be. I am sick and tired of the rudeness and idiotic ways of these middles schoolers! I just had a student break the lock on my door just because i told him to stand in line to sign for his report card. It's not like it matters anyways, the child has an F in the class. He went out of my classroom, took my door and slammed it three times against the way. this made the lock break. This is just the mild htings that happen. for thoses of you who do not know this, i had a student stab another student in my face just because the classmate wrote something on his paper. They are disrespectful to the max. A lot of subs will not take our school. i had a sub lined up for one day and the guy never showed up.

But anywyas , things could be worse. We are doing a production of School House Rocks and i'm in charge of props. It's been really eye opening. The kids can not behave even for something that is fun. God, its all crazy. But on another hand, i am excited about teaching Anne Frank. The kids are having a hard time understanding the concept of the Nazi's and the Jews and all that went on in that time, but they are very into the fact that we are reading someone else's diary.

Well enough of school and work. But thats all i have. i work and pretend i am a babysitter. thats the life of the new teacher. on the other hand, i am truly excited about going way next weekend and going to California in December. I'll be going to California to spend my birthday with Keyla. I am so excited! I have not been to California in such a long time. So it's going to be great.

Pics I like from NY

this is stella, vi and i eating breakfast at Trump Tower. pic 2 Broadway: Chicago

World Trade Center from across the St. Nice pictures right? this is all New York. And i readlly like this picture of the World Trade Center. I think it says a lot. what do you think?

In a way i'm back.

So, i have not been on since my first trip to New York. wow, some time right? things have happened since then. many things. most of you already know but i guess i should go thru most. well i did go to NY that first time and as i said, i would not live in NY but i did like it. After 1st NY trip i went to Puerto Rico. It was some trip. i took stephi, one of my co-workers with me. we had a very good time. we wen to places that i've always wanted to go but after living in pr for 12 years and an overprotective mother hanging on to my hip, i was never able to do. i like the sense of newly found independence (or rather, then it was newly found independence, in a sense). in two small weeks we basically went around the island. i finally saw "flamming june" (for those of you who don't know, it a painting). we went to Culebras, thats were the whole hour and a half of vomit occured and the disagrable, and most unplesant argument became public knowledge. But in all, it was great. NY came again a week after i came back from PR. yes people i like to travel. if it was up to me, i would take a year off just to go around the world. yes it sounds corny but hey, i like what i like. this time Vi didn't go with me. i went with Livy to Cindy's house. the reason for returning was because we got tickets to the Madonna concert. yes, it was awsome. i had a blast even though i did not know 3/4 of the songs. Madonna fans please don't hate me but i never grew up hearing Madonna. Actually i didn'y grow up hearing much of anything, church does that to you. I mean people we are talking about the girl who was not allowed to go to the movies untill she turned 13, * thank you Nelly for my first time* after Madonna we stayed for a week and did things i could have only dreamed of. we went out every night to dinner and let me tell you that it was awsome. but not cheap our dinners ranged from $150 to $350 a night. but the weird thing was that i didn't pay for most. Cindy's sister did most of the paying which was great but it also makes me feel guilty. I tried to pay some but she wouldn't accept. I did get away with paying some of the lunches though. so... Broadway...Phantom was so much better the Chicago. Sorry Vivi but i was falling asleep in chicago and i could not be more awake in phantom. we spent a whole afternoon at Central Park and we finally found the strawberry fields. time went by to fast. i had a great time sitting up late and talking with Cindy. and i was just getting used to the subway when we were already hailing a cab for the airport. oh well. soon after i was back in Florida and dreaming of a new job. i got my ass into gear asap and God answered my dream. Now you see people, when you have dreams and you pray about the remember to be specific about it, ok? i got my dream alright but God didn't wwarn me i would be woring at the Middle school from hell. *no offense God* The freaking devil is scared of these kids! no joke. the classes started 9 weeks agao and on the first 2 weeks we had 7 teachers quit. Horrible does not even come close to describe these children. i mean i understand that we have to be understanding but they are just a horrid little bunch of children. by the end of the first few weeks i wanted to leave myself. Now just on thursday we found out that there will be two more teachers leaving and then i know of about 5 more who will not be coming back after winter break. nice place to work right? well it gets better. a6th grader stabbed another student in my class, a 7th grader stood up in class and yelled at me and told me to shut up, my 7th graders made my sub cry, he said and i quote "they are horrible and the day was a disaster. thank you for giving me the chance of actually knowing why subs don't come back" crazy right? well i could go on and on but i should stop there. i'll be going to CA in december. happy birthday to me! i guess i will let everyone know of my adventures at school.
