Happy Thanksgiving
Oh my gosh I just had the class I really can't stand. Today was just one of those days where I wanted to scream. And now I have all this bottled up annoyance. Alright here is how the conversations went down between Bill and I.
"Alright Bill, what does this word say" I ask pointing to the word "Hat."
He looks at it for about a minute and says, "Shirt."
"Really" I ask, "Is there an 's' there?"
He just kind of looks at me.
"Okay, how about we spell it out. What letter is this," I ask pointing to the "H."
A few minutes of staring, "L."
"No, L looks like this," and I draw it.
"G."
"No, G looks like this," and I draw it.
"J."
"No, J looks like this," and I draw it.
"I."
"No, I looks like this," and I draw it.
"H."
"Good it's an H! Alright now what is this letter next to it?" I ask.
And it just goes on from there. Eventually he spells out hat and then I ask, "Okay, now what does it say?"
"Shirt."
"No." I say holding in my frustration.
"Teacher, shoe," he says.
The bell rings and I say, "It says hat Bill."
Where you annoyed reading that? Try living it. I think he needs to drop multiple levels. If he can't even tell me that that letter is an "H" he has obviously not learned anything. Or he just refuses to try which is equally as bad.
Anyways I've been in a crap mood lately. I got my new schedule and I'm still 9 to 7 Monday, Wednesday, Friday but now I'm 9 to 5:15 Tuesday, Thursday... Hooray... Oh and I added up my hours. We need over 105 hours a month to get over time. This month I'm at 102.7. Fabulous.
Hopefully Twilight is good and I can get over this poor me mood.
Edit: Twilight has been pushed back till December 11th. Point for you Life.

I totally had a link to the movie that you could watch online but I just checked it today and it was taken down, so sorry :(
That was incredibly frustrating to read. Send Bill back a few grades.
Found a new link for Twilight:

or

Both are the same, both very low quality but if you can't wait for it to come out, then watch it there!
Hey Sweetheart, chin up! In your teaching experience you are going to have many students like Bill. But just remember, for every one student like that there will be 5 to 10 students that you have made a real impact on and have learned what they are supposed to from you. There will be many Bills but many, many more students who appreciate, respect and love you! So, chin up and don't let the Bills get you down, OK? LUVU!!!
That is annoying. Is is possible that maybe he isn't a little shit, that maybe he has learning disabilities? I dunno?
Oh.. BTW... Twilight was AMAZING! I am not reading the books(people that read them were disappointed about the movie). The guy that plays Edward is HOT! Grrr ;) I think he does awesome in the role.
