any chance its all snot now? and no more bwain?
tilts head in puzzlement
Whoa. I have to admit, some of the public school teacher bashing I'm seeing in here is really upsetting.
I can undertand that. I went to public schools and really had some of the most amazing teachers, a few I didn't work well with, and maybe one that was an outright waste of the credentials.
I don't think good teachers get nearly the recognition that they deserve. Though there were also a lot of bad toupees that should have been mentioned also.
Which is my brain slowed way of saying that the teachers I know on b.org are all amazing and very dedicated to actually teaching their students something and not just moving them through mindlessly.
Oh, and what Aimee said.
Um, hi. Been drinking champagne and packing. Whee...
*cheers and good wishes* Bubble wine is my personal choice for memorable times, happy and sad. And sometimes it is just tasty.
I had one English teacher that could have been really good for me. I regrert that I did nothing to get more out of her class. I can name all the factors, 1) I was horribly shy 2) She had a reputation for hateing kids ( which has got to be the most absurd rumor that can happen about a teacher) 3) I always ended up with an A - so I never knew I needed help 4) there were over 30 kids in the classroom - and that was only one of the 5 or 6 sections she taught. It was going to be up to me.
however, since I am brillant now, none of this matters. except that I still spell horribly and I can't dependably write a gramtical sentence.
I'm amazed you didn't go after my use of "blunderbuss."
No, a blunderbuss is still legit for 18th and early 19th century:

All times, for me. I've got a bottle of '99 Dom, Mumm's, and Veuve. Which I have to move to SF. NYE, anyone?
