I've given up.
Well, perhaps that isn't the correct term. I've hit the point where the little things don't bother me quite so much, as I know that it will all be over soon. Only six out of thirty-two students bring in their rough drafts? Whatever. All of you who didn't can go work on the computers (which were conveniently empty). Should I try and cram in more new topics? Nah, lets just focus a bit more on what we've been learning, do some sort of concluding activity, and move on to an end-of-semester reflective portfolio piece. I've even planned a whole week for my sixth graders to do make-up work (to be fair, it's a week of shortened days and many other teachers are just showing movies). I'm just trying to not stress myself out too much, give myself time to finish homework (which I should probably be doing right now), and make it to December 14th.
Nine more days.
Oh, and since everyone is doing it, R's sister has elfed us.

I swear, they don't look nearly so scuffed and beat-up in person!
As you can probably tell, these black Kaya flats are well-loved. These are the only nice shoes I have that don't hurt my feet. I've worn a hole in the toe and will be very sad when it comes time to replace them.

I am INCREDIBLY jealous at how earlier your school year finishes.
Our year goes from Jan 29th right up until Dec 21st.
Completely unfair!
Wow, that's unbelievably stressing to even read.
(Although I do love black flats.)
ooh, i have some shoes similar to those, and they're also well-loved. :)
I've given up as well. The last (shortened) week will be nothing but movies so I can grade things in time to turn in grades which is the last day of the semester. I don't know how teachers sustain their energy through December.
