I <3 My Kidlets

May 08, 2009 15:22

Today, I made my WJHS 3rd graders (my little geniuses) write letters to their mothers for Mother's Day. They are seriously brilliant, and the stuff they came up with was just... guh... My favorites: "I hope that you will always be happy." "You are always gentle and kind. Please teach me to be like you." So cute I could've puked kittens ( Read more... )

Awww... I love that your kiddos think you're a super hero! (And you're totally my super hero, just so you know)

Mother's Day letters-- so precious! I think you really do have the most awesome group of kiddos ever. And I don't even like that age group =)

Haha! I promise, it's just the one class. My other 9th graders are apathetic pains in the butt!

wait...you didn't want people to know you're a vigilante crime-fighting biker girl gang member who went up against a monster??

whoa. then i have been telling people WAY the wrong origin tale of how we met

;)

HEATHER!!! Do the words "secret identity" mean nothing to you?!

are you kidding?? clownfairy May 9 2009, 14:28:47 UTC

of course i do!

no better place to hide than in the wide open!

i mean, seriously, who besides your adorable school kids are possibly gonna see through your cleverly-crafted, mild-mannered school teacher alter ego!??

see?? see? i tell people a truth they'll never, ever, in their wildest imagination believe, right? so your secret identity is totally secure!

Ha! not so dingy as i might first appear now, huh?

I suddenly feel as though I've somehow fallen into The Scarlet Pimpernel.

I have to -- I have the scars to prove it!

Wait, you mean you're not a crime-fighting girl biker gang member who went up against a monster boar and lived to tell the tale?

Wow. And here I was thinking the whole Cobweb thing was just your disguise, heh.

Man, that got me thinking... how long has it been since the accident? If I remember correctly I think we'd just met either over on Otherkin or on here. Or I think it was right around that time, no?

toshichan May 9 2009, 09:18:25 UTC

I think it was right before we met, cause I didn't start looking into Otherkin stuff until afterward. And let's see... that was right at the end of my sophomore year of college, so that would have been... mid-2002. O_O

I so didn't realize we've known each other for seven years!

Heh. Just goes to show how much time flies, huh?

I met one of my best friends on a pagan community over at MSN back in high school. What amazes me is that we're just shy of ten years since we met. Because honestly? Even though I know so much time has passed, it doesn't feel like it at all.

What gets me though is how I miss those earlier days sometimes. Even though I was completely naive and ignorant of the Real World, sometimes I wish I could go back just for a quick respite. Because while I have a lot more knowledge and understanding now... it was so much simpler back then, y'know?

Maybe that's the whole Growing Up part. If so, it kinda sucks sometimes :(

But yeah, 2002 sounds about right. I know I was deep into the Otherkin scene back then helping out with various projects and maintaining several of the communities and forums back then. And I'm fairly certain that it was around Junior Year we met.

Seven years, though? Kinda mind-boggling when you think of it in those terms, eh?
