Ours begins tomorrow and I, for one, CANNOT wait. Just he thought of not having the usual morning rush is like a burden lifting. <br /><br />Enjoyed your trek down memory lane....made me remember how incredibly boring our physics teacher was....who also taught our geometry, algebra, trigonometry, etc.. So, every year, each class, boring as the next!! :)kimberly t. bowlinghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09778792946655868250noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-30016058.post-568337835364810712009-05-23T11:32:00.484-05:002009-05-23T11:32:00.484-05:00Ah...sleep...*happy sigh*

My 9 year old sleeps anywhere from 9 to 10. 8-9 for the 13 year old. And I let them. Why does school start so crazy early in the morning? Do you ever wonder how the classroom would look different if every kid was well rested?Grafted Branchhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13234492249971474897noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-30016058.post-65008851256914670382009-05-23T10:50:03.135-05:002009-05-23T10:50:03.135-05:00Reading this brought back such memories.

But sitting in biology and staring at Mrs. Bosh's bottle black hair and inch long blood red fingernails, no one could have convinced me she was less than terrifyingly different from anyone else I knew.<br /><br />Now I know she just had a terribly gone wrong sense of style. :-)<br /><br />You know, I dont' think there's such a thing as a teenager who would stop to think that a teacher who falls asleep mid sentense needs help - any teenager would laugh. It just goes with the age.Barbhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13078572615133867629noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-30016058.post-79512006921665632402009-05-21T13:27:46.385-05:002009-05-21T13:27:46.385-05:00I just lurrve your writing.

The world still turns. . .economies rise and fall. . .but it IS very scary that Mr. S. would just fall asleep at random. The kids I teach would all silently exit the room leaving me to wake up alone but rested.Roxannehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03483570734127165995noreply@blogger.com
