Just wanted to put that out in the blogging world! Also.....I total sneak attacked a students Ipod yesterday! It was super cool! Ill explain...lata!

Cassie

Yeah yeah I know I totally suck at...

blogging everyday! So New news, I am now the newest long term substitute at Dundalk High School. For a Family Studies teacher....so its interesting to say the least. The first day went by in a blur but went well. Friday was another story. My First class is Decisions in Family Living....so far not to bad, and its a good group of kids. My second and third classes are both food and nutrition classes....yeah, Ms. I love fast food and funk food, and cant cook to save her life... is teaching Foods and Nutrition....what is up with that? Anyway, these kids range from pleasent to down right iggnorant...and with my temper and relfexive nature to snap back I am in for one heck of a ride so please, Please, PLEASE pray for me with these two classes! My last class is Intro to Human Services. The last two days we have been learning about HIV and AIDS, Here is how our conversation went for about 5 minutes:

Student A: Ms. Hickey, theres this woman and she's 6months pregnat, can you hit
the baby in the head with your thing and could it cause brain damage?

Me: Um, Thats really not an appriopriate question to be asking right now.

Student B: Yes, you can hit the baby in the head and it can cause brain damage.

Student A: Why not we're talking about how HIV and AIDS are spread and we
started talking about sex.

Department head: Yes you can touch the baby while having intercourse, most women
find it uncomfortable during the later months of their pregnacy, and we
are not discussing this any furthur at this time, if you are interested in
this you can take a child development course or ask your parents
any questions you may have.

Needless to say I was very grateful to my department head for saving me from anymore embarrassment. All I could do was laugh at the question and the girl that answered him in sincerity....*Sighs* No wonder there are so many unplanned pregnanceies at this high school....these kids probably think if you have sex in weird postions or in the water you dont need to use protection!

I such a screw up...i feel like nothing i do is right and that sometimes i should just stay in bed.

NaBloMo Day 9

So I know Ive been a bad blogger....so much has gone on....I studied my butt off for Praxis II and in a month I should get my scores....Im not sure if I passed....which from what I understand if you walk out of the room feeling like you failed it is a good sign because more than likely you passed....so we will see.....I hope I did so I can apply and get my certification to teach in the state of md.

I also had a massive fight with my sister and parents today....ugh....if your not home how the hell can I ask who the cookies are for....yes my mom yelled at me for eating a few cookies meant for my grandparents....then my sister flipped out on me for being on the house computer because she had a paper to write for class...when she has her on damn laptop...her excuse...she doesnt have a printer....um...email anyone? or ever heard of a flash drive? Ive done both when Ive been in a pinch....

well Im still exhausted....so I think its time for bed....night ya'll!

NaBloMo Day 8

So No one ever told me....that tattoos itched this much....oh my! I wanna scratch my back off right now and its just the outline lord knows what the color will feel like! I can not wait to be able to scratch my lower back again!

NaBloMo Day 7...Wordless Wednesday

Life is life....Survived subbing in Middle school....

Pretty sure Ive been transported back to high school with some of the childishness that has been going on :-\ Alright lots to do still!

NaBloMo Day 5

Sorry about missing 3 days....I pretty much dropped into bed every night the last few nights exhausted.....

Thursday I subbed in two different classes for a few hours, then I hung out with Dan at work the rest of the night.

Friday I did a ton of running around....dropped Dan off at work, went to daycare and picked up my check, went to the bank, had lunch/dinner with Dan, studied at his work all night, got mc'ds with dan after work then went to bed...

Saturday, woke up early went out to harve de grace for a club function, then went to Bob Evans to celebrate a club brothers foster son's 4th Bday! Then went to another clubs fuction to support another club brothers tattoo stand, and while i was there I got the outline done for my first tattoo

here it is...

If you look at the dolphin on the right it has a fish on its flipper like Dans arm has and the dolphin on the left has eyelashes for me :-)

It hurt so bad! but now im glad I hung in there and soon ill get it filled in once the outlining heals :-)

Alright gotta go laundry is almost dry!

Wordless wednseday montage....

couldnt make up my mind on what to post for Day three so here it goes lol....

A Porcupine from the Baltimore zoo came to visit my second graders when i student taught and I fell in love with it!


My first live nascar race at Dover!


My god daughter passed out in her high chair during my visit to Texas!

Rugged Cross ride to a lake in PA, before Dans accident thought this pic looked cool!

After Dan's accident jen came to visit him and Jen and I took Dan's parents dog Daisy for a ride!


Hope you all had a great day!

NaBloMo Day 3

So work last night was horrible like to the point that I ended up calling and informing them I would not finish out the rest of my two weeks. Which to be fair was only two days....None the less, I will start substituting on Thursday because Dan and I both agreed that I should start studying for the Praxis II (which is in like 2 weeks) and do stuff around the house....I am so glad I have an understanding and supportive fiancee. Well for now thats about it..... Hi Dawn!!!! :-D

NaBloPoMo Day 2

Well today is going to be a short one kids because i need to leave for work in 15 min. So yesterday I failed to mention my spectacular sleeping habits. Saturday I slept from 1:30am-2pm....almost 12 hours straight....was up till 4 pm then fell back alseep for another 2 hours... Sunday I slept till 10 am and then this morning woke up at 2 am got sick fell back asleep till my alarm went off went to work, till 8:30, went to Freds to hang out with Dan, fell back asleep for another hour and a half, and I feel like I could go to bed right now and sleep till tomorrow morning....I dunno....Im exhausted though....im hoping its the time change, and the weather thats making me feel this way and that Im not sick....Alright got some stuff to do before heading back to work...so ill see yall later!

NaBloPoMo

So I decided to do NaBloPoMo which is National Blogging Month because I saw that my friend Dawn was doing it and my loving fiancee has been whining that I haven't blogged much lately....so today is day one and my introduction!

Life has been hectic...and I am hoping to have at least some what of a routine with blogging. As of Wednesday I will no longer work for celebree....I enjoy substituting way to much not to do it....and hopefully Ill be able to get my name and face out there to be hired as a teacher! I have exactly 2 weeks before I take Praxis 2.....guess I need to buckle down and start studying again....whooops! lol...

So clocks were set back an hour last night....and here begins my struggle with winter....I hate that it is dark by 6:30pm....if not earlier....it kills me....I feel like I have no time to do anything during the day, and I begin to feel anxious over everything....the last four or five days Ive felt anxious and have tried to handle it well...and I was alittle confused by how I was feeling but now I understand my body was trying to say "hey, cass pay attention this is the time of year you LOVE HATE!" Im already worrying about the holidays and stressing out about them. I know it seems silly....but being around a ton of people all in one day....not my idea of a good time....but I have Dan this year, and I know he will be able to help me get through it as he always does....

Speaking of Dan, he has started back to work! His foot has been hurting him a good deal, so the physical therapist gave him a walking boot that he wears during work but besides that he has been doing well! ( I love you, BABE!)

Alright...wrote way more then i expected to lol....Time to go Dan should be off of work soon!
