Come Again Another Day

It's the last week of classes! Hooray!
Am I studying a ton, you ask? The answer is, No! Not even a little!

I haven't been studying, but I sure have been instagramming photos....


Never underestimate the power of handmade thank you notes. These are for the elementary school students and teachers I worked with this semester. This is how you get a good reputation, people!

Yesterday was my second to last day teaching my fourth grade mathematicians at Jefferson. Friday will be our final day. The students yesterday when I first walked in were like "Oh, Ms. Anderson, will you spell your last name on this piece of paper? Don't worry about it. It's for nothing." Not suspicious at all. They also asked, "Are you bringing us treats on Friday?!" and so I said, "Pshhhh No! Your learning is your treat, you lucky lucky students!" and then I laughed at their disappointment. (Do I sound like a good teacher, yet?) Joke's on them, I already made thank yous and bought the cutest pencils to give them. (Their teacher is SUPER anti-candy/edible treats... so pencils are as good as it gets, folks.) Also we're going to play a math game instead of learning partial quotients, so that's a huge treat in my opinion.



I called my dad and begged for a few bucks so that I could buy myself rain boots. It's been rainy and dreary for the past three days, and it's going to continue through the week! Luckily he agreed, except  asking for money stresses me out so bad that I accidentally ended up crying at Holly's. We went shopping for the boots (found at the ever fashionable Fleet Farm) and I think she felt so sorry for my pitiful blotchy crying self that she ended up treating me to them anyway. So now I'm a couple bucks ahead! Thanks Dad and Holly! You guys are the best. The boots are totally doing their job!



Today the rain turned into snow for a solid few hours. It even accumulated a little. The grass is all "I'm greeeeen and ready for SPRIIIING!" and the sky says, "LOLNOPESNOW"



PS - My very first blog post was exactly a year ago yesterday. Wanna see it again? Here you go.
