Did we have a weekend?
Here’s a check of my past few days. Last Friday I think I was in bed around 10 because I’m a boring teacher and that’s what we do. :| Then on Saturday I headed to Eden Prairie with the marching band (where we did very well and got 2nd place to Rosemount-which is also a great band). We then stayed over night in the EP gym. No, I didn’t get much sleep because after our critique we came back to find the kids all energized after their ‘dance’ that the EP marching band put on for them. So my bed time was probably 2:30 or so. I then had to get up at 5:30 as I wanted to shower in peace without having to fight 100+ girls for a shower stall. So that brings us to Sunday.
On Sunday we went to Menomenie, WI where we swept all the competition away. :) We got first overall and we won all the captions for our class which means outstanding drum major, color guard, percussion, wind section… So anyway, I get home around 10, I think. Went to bed, then came to school on Monday, which means-weekend= I had none.
Monday=full day of school, me running around like a chicken with my head cut off in between lessons and band to figure out what the hell I’m supposed to do for conferences on Tuesday night as I don’t have reports for the students that I’m supposed to conference with. How am I supposed to know what grade they are getting in math and science. And how am I supposed to explain why johnny is getting a D in math?! I teach BAND!!!! and then after school it’s dinner with Seth because I feel like I haven’t talked to him for like a year and then marching band rehearsal.
Today=Full day, probably much like yesterday. Oh, and I have to finish my jazz band roster in my free time, so that’ll be interesting as my free time is that 20 minutes I get for lunch. Hmm, maybe I should be doing my jazz roster now instead of writing this! Probably…so yes, then I have conferences tonight which means, I don’t get home until 8 and I’ll miss good tv shows I’m sure.
Alright, was this a long blog? I think so. Sorry. And if you are still reading…I can’t believe I kept you interested for that long!
