@ Fruhurricane: I think its wonderful you have the patients of steel and such a big heart to work with children (Teenagers) that are often (to often) overlooked in most educational systems. What spurred you into heading into that field? I mean usually there is a reason why people do what they are, something brought them to choosing that path after all. I know for myself being a immigrant I wanted to make sure the transition is easier for other immigrants coming over from other places to America by instructing them in english. Just hit me close to home.

I actually worked at an advertising agency for a couple of years before I decided. I've always had a special bond to kids and teenagers and it feels awesome to work with them. This summer I also worked at a summer camp and it was the most amazing job I've ever had. :D I also have a big interest for languages overall and I love both reading and writing. Therefor, I chose to be a language teacher. I'll start studying english next year.

Morning all! So last night I was writing writing writing and I got to a point that seemed like a great ending of the chapter. I load up my game to get some pictures and realize D'OH, I forgot to write the most important scene of the entire chapter! It's pivotal to the next four chapters and I didn't write it! lol. So I guess today I'll be writing some more. :P

I know that mistake well enough. LOL! I do that all the time too, good thing one at least enjoys writing. ;) How many chapters do you plan on getting done before NaNo kicks off?

I'm always so stunned by your work, every picture seems so perfectly staged. I wish I had that patience...

Good Morning:

Fru: You sound like a wonderful teacher and I hope your students think so, too. When I was in junior high (grades 7-9 back then), I used to help out with the special needs students at recess and lunch. I even got to know their special bus drivers and sometimes one of them would let me operate the wheelchair lift. It was exciting for a shy girl with very few 'normal' friends as most of the time my classmates made fun of me. One thing I enjoyed about working with these students was their appreciation of you and acceptance. These students were really my only friends in junior high with the exception of a couple of my classmates.

I get a lot of positive feedback from the students, that's probably the main reason to enjoying the job. :) I would love to work with smaller groups of students but that will be something too strive for in the future. First I need my degree and some experience with "my own" classes. ^^
