Well, another day of those little bastards is over...today i had a meeting w/ the parents of one of them, and well, it certainly changed his tune in my class....if only all the parents would do this w/ their kids.....an example, i gave an exam today w/ 100 questions, totaling over 125 points, and the test will be graded out of 75 points....in other words, 75/75 is a 100%, so there is a shit ton of opportunity for students to increase their 40% averages.....well the two that really needed it only answered 56 of the 100 questions, and they were all 1 point problems....in other words....they just done stuck a phallic shaped object in a very uncomfortable place on their own person....dumbasses...
other than these fun students, it was an enjoyable day. Many students were learning, and doing well....most are improving their grades as we speak.
Tonight was wednesday, so it was wing night...so a few teachers and myself went out for wings and it was again a great time. We got to bitch about the students we are annoyed with, and we got to discuss the amusing things others have done. I really enjoy these nights out because i get to be social w/ someone that isn't on my TV, or on the telephone, IT IS SPECTACULAR.
So this weekend i have to go to martinsburg on saturday to a seminar, but i'm seriously considering leaving from there and going straight to coopers rock again this weekend to climb on sunday....
This past weekend i got to climb again, something i hadn't done in forever, and i didn't realize how much i missed it...the physical strain on my muscles (the soreness the next day)...it was great...and the best thing about it was the sense of accomplishment i had when i completed climbs, and overcame my nerves when i was 20' off the ground w/ no ropes. In one case, i spotted a random guy on this highball problem (V1, which anywhere normal was bout V2) and he couldn't send it, so i asked him to spot me, i jumped up and flashed that shit....i got to the top and was about 20-25' off the deck and just kept on going w/out thinking about the fall below me...it was the best feeling i have had in so long....so i think i am going to do it again this weekend. At least i want to....
ohh well, here is my quick update....no i gotta do this work so i can go climbing this weekend.
Peace out
p.s. remember, don't clap it kills bacteria in the air please show pleasure w/ an environmentally friendly 'thumbs up'
