2) I'M OFFICIALLY A GROWN UP, TOMORROW AT 8:30 AM. They're trusting me with kids, whut? Three of them, if I haven't written about it; a 4th grader, a 5th grader, and a 6th grader, and I have a co-teacher. That means that my days are going to be VERY interesting. Possibly a little dangerous (they're working on getting Claudia and I restraint training, which is indicative of NEEDING to restrain one or all three of my kids), but definitely interesting, and a good learning experience. I know that I didn't do NEARLY enough prep work (I only planned out tomorrow, but that's mainly because I don't know these kids and would have hated to plan the whole unit for many subjects and then found out it was too high or too low...), but I'm going to roll with the punches and make it work.
3) The trees are starting to change colors up here, and that makes me MORE than sad.
2b) *yeah, I know it's out of order, SUE ME.* I created another username on here to document my time teaching. It will be the right mix of detailed and honest and then still respectful of my kids/coworkers and their lives. You can read about how I'm doing at 1styearteacher . I don't know if I'll update it EVERYday, but I sort of want to keep this journal separate from my work life; I want to still be a person outside of teaching, even if I'm definitely a teacher outside of teaching (it's one of those jobs you don't leave at the door when the day ends).
14) (just to piss somebody off). Is it possible 'The Office' has finally worn me down and I want to watch it?!?! I watched this youtube video of Jim and Dwight and all the stuff Jim does to Dwight, and it was actually really funny. Hmm. I don't forsee it every climbing into the 'My Favorite Shows' category (ala Friends, My Boys, Daria, CSI, SVU, Scrubs...), but I'd consider watching it.
Either way, these are the 2 videos that got me going: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ts9geuPWQvs

Q) Has anyone ever SOLD anything on Ebay before? The operative word here is SOLD. I have 2 tickets to a concert I would have sold my soul for, but now that I'm not in New York, a concert on a Tuesday night in New Jersey just...it's not going to happen. I can't tell you how PISSED I am that I have to miss seeing New Kids on the Block in concert (something I've wanted to do since I was um...SIX YEARS OLD?), but I spent $110 dollars on them (stupid fees) and I would love to sell them. Any suggestions are greatly appreciated.
This is the 3rd of my old original songs choices. This is a song called "Winner". The lyrics can be interpreted in many different ways, but I wrote it for mistaken friends who need support.
This song was also co-written with Mick Paul. I finish off with details about what mick is up to now in his music career.
If you watched the last vid I posted, you will have learned that Mick played bass on a David Hasselhoff single. I don't think there's many individuals who don't know who the Hoff is. After being in such shows as "Knight rider", "Baywatch" and "America's got talent".
Here is "Winner":
Mick is quite busy doing the touring thing at the moment, with an outfit named "The David Cross band". David Cross used to be in a band called "King Crimson". They were very well known. If you come from Italy, There's a good chance that you've heard of David Cross. He's quite popular there, and hence the reason why Mick does most of his touring there.
Now here's the regular Youtube numbers update.
My subscribers have seen a really good jump in the last few days. Racing past the 700 barrier to 717.
Channel viewings cruised to 16,017. That's the 16k barrier broken.
Last but by no means least. The total video views. They are 246,003. I hoped that they might possibly get to the quarter of a million by the 17th July. Which is the 1st year anniversary of my the first vid I uploaded on Youtube. At this rate, it looks like it's going to get there on the 15th!!
I'm probably going to do a few coldplay covers in my next few videos, and I'm hoping to bring some more news about my forthcoming album release.
I've created a mailing list for album news. I will only be using the email addresses for that purpose. It's so I can inform interested parties about events regarding the album, before I post the info anywhere else.
If anyone is interested in signing up for it then you can do just that if you go to the homepage on my website. Here's the URL:
Until the next post :)
I suppose you all want to know who won?
Okay...first off I have to say, my mom won. There was really no contest. She blew everyone else away. But, as I knew that there was no one who would know me as well as she does, I told her from the get go that she just couldn't win. It isn't fair to the rest of you.
Then, my siblings shocked me by doing really well. I never gave them that much credit for paying attention but they did...so I decided to separate friends from family. In the family category- Congratulations to my brother Cracker, who won with a final score of 19.
And as for the rest of you....I have to say, I was surprised. I figured Jason or Elena for winning this. I would have put money on it. Luckily, I learned my gambling lesson at the Superbowl (sorry Tom Brady). Mindy, one of the earliest respondants was the early leader. After getting some others, I figured her to be the final winner. Unfortunately, in a last minute surge, Justin swooped in and took the lead. Congratulations to him, the winner of the contest!
Anyone wanna know the scores?

Mom=21
Zack (but probably mostly Kim)=19
