I tweeted it and got responses from a couple of people, buthearditbothways, changethemusic, and dugindeep are lifesavers! (The problem and solution is here if you're curious.

1. ICON. I loaded some new ones, and I just adore this particular one SO MUCH.
2. Lesson plans. They suck. My boss made a new rule they had to be done by Friday so she could review them over the weekend. DNW. I was so used to doing them on Sundays. So now I'm up late on Thursday nights. *SIGHS*
3. Family. That's a whole different issue and entry. But for now? *tugs hair*
4. LAYOUT! Come look!enablelove enablelove enablelove I saw the header impala_tea made and I fell in LOVE. So yeah, new layout for a little while at least :) It makes me happy with how clean it is. Even if I do miss my sidebar and links haha
5. This little tidbit posted bymissyjack from the latest SFX magazine!

missyjack from the latest SFX magazine! Padalecki says he and Ackles have their own brotherly bond after seven years as co-leads navigating such a complicated and demanding show. "It's great,"he smiles genuinely, "We joke with each other all the time because I see him more than I see my wife, my mother, and father and brother and sister and my dogs. I have probably seen his face more than any other face over the last seven years and vice versa. We have the relationship where we've gone at it with each other and then been totally cool. I know him so well that he can communicate to me as a friend. "*heartclench* I LOVE THEM SO MUCH.
a follow up to my last entry...
Oct. 2nd, 2011 11:28 amOn Friday, the class and I had a talk. I told them what they should do explicitly when they finish and I gave another test - this one more open ended in a way and told them I'd take the higher grade. I also explained that this wouldn't happen again, and that because it was the first time, we'd work on it a little more. Hopefully that stops problems. Thanks so much for your input and backup everyone! ♥♥
I found out something heartbreaking, though. I was talking to one of my student's parents and she kind of told me that this kid hates coming to school because he doesn't like me because I'm too strict. She was trying to tell me in a nice way so I can change a little bit. But, god, it broke my heart. That's never been something I'd expect :/ And I never thought I was that strict!
But yeah, just wanted to follow up and thank you all <3

BEING A TEACHER OMG.
Aug. 8th, 2011 09:37 pmI started teaching today!
That's why I've been a bit AWOL, if you noticed. My first day of third grade was today and oh dear god, am I stressed! I'm hoping this year goes smoothly, but even with just 9 kids, I know I have my work cut out for me! It went well enough, I suppose, but there's quite a bit that goes into having your own self contained class. So I'm not going to be as active as I wish I was, unfortunately.
I still love you guys, but just wanted to explain my absence and what is to come.
....oh crap I have the newsletter *facepalm*
