I've sporadically had 'Singing in the Rain' in my head for about 3 months now

... is it odd that I'm not irritated?!

Well I did it - I cried in the store - just another cliche to add to the list entlted  I'm Not A Teacher Who ...

In a way it did nothing but make me realise that I'm strong and I'm bloody amazing at my job.  I know it sounds trite and all but you know what ... I don't care!  I have had an amazing realisation that *I* am enough ... just me ... I ( Read more... )

I wear a disguise
I'm just your average jane
The super doesn't stand for model
But that doesn't mean I'm plain
If all you see is how I look
You miss the superchick within
And I christen you titanic - underestimate and swim

Lesson Plans still to be typed up ... 14

Unit plans to be re-written ( Read more... )

Ok so I wasted a bit of my morning on here fiddling about with some stuff ... and now I'm wondering if it was wise for me, the queen of the procrastinators, to have started a Livejournal!

Not only did I fritter away a fair part of the morning, but I have sooooooooooooo much lesson planning to be doing right now and I appear to be typing another ( Read more... )

OK so I'd first like to mention to those of you who know me well, I'm well aware that's not me in my user pic. However, I feel that this place is much more public than Bebo etc and so I decided to hide behind Emily Deschanel (or more accurately her character on 'Bones', Dr. Temperance Brennan). So that explains that ( Read more... )
