First off in case you didn't know I obviously take after my mother and cannot say no when asked to volunteer for something. Which is how I ended up being the advisor for student council. This means that I was in charge of a dance from 7-midnight one Friday night, helping with everything from concessions to the door to filling out incident reports (thank you Hasting Water Works for the practice). It was a long night but it was fun. Some of the student council kids "did" my hair.
We had a good time and all the proceeds from the door went towards student travel (which is a lot more expensive up here because you don't take a bus...you take a plane) I am actually traveling with two students tomorrow to Bethel for two days! (yay sleeping on a gym floor)
We've also been busy in the classroom between AIMs Web testing and working hard on our letters and words first quarter has flown by! It ends Friday! crazy that the year is already 25% over.
I had my latest new teacher inservice in Bethel this weekend (4 plane rides in less than 7 days) and it was great to see people again! Sleeping on a cot at District Office, not at fun but staying up ti 1am was! (thank god for Dr. Pepper in the morning.) And I got ice cream!! yummy! and a salad (never thought I would be that excited for fresh veggies) and of course a hamburger. and SUBWAYYY! gah food that I didn't have to cook!
On the way back to Napakiak I got to sit in the little seat in the back of the plane. Right next to all the stuff we were taking back. It was bumpy but we made it back just fine!
