I shall resist.

I cannot even justify the cost of an xbox 360 to myself as I only want two games for it yet alone my other half so unlike Halo 2, did not get on release.

Still, I got given a wii for my birthday, which is a whole lot of fun, I just hope they hurry up and bring out a game that allows me to use a lightsaber!

Yes, I'm real. As for the hugs, you can ask Magda, whimsy, Rose, MsG, and several others about them.

*gets Roxy a hot cup of Hazelnut tea*

Halo 3? Sounds and looks shiny, but my most current gaming system is a PS2, which is mostly a DVD player anyhow. I do like the Mountain Dew Game Fuel drink, though. :)

I gota say if I ever broke down and got a console it might be the wii simply beacuse it has so many active games for it. Tennis, etc. Something you can exercise with. After 3 years of playing Warcraft (and breaking that addiction - another reason I'm suddenly particpating here more...escaping the evil that is MMO) I'd rather move and do something that sit and hit buttons while stareing at a screen hunchbacked.

*makes note not to play active arm games too close to Jimi on the wii*

Thanks guys. I needed a bit of sympathy. My students were revolting today. Literally. For the first time I was actually scared of them a little.

It got so bad that one is now putting in a charge of assault against me. He says I tried to strangle him. I say that I tried to stop a storm-out by getting in front of him and putting my arm out to bar the door which he stormed into and necked himself. I don't think anyone is going to take his abuse seriously but it's really depressing having someone scream that they're going to try to get you fired when all you were trying to do is give them a chance for a better career.

Had to put on an unconcerned facade all afternoon but now I'm home I can go and sob into a pillow a bit. Thanks for the support guys, nice to have an army of browncoats behind me!

All I can say is, hand on heart, I've had days when work was so bad I seriously thought I had no ability to teach and spent that entire night sobbing my heart out. Horrible days happen. I swear it gets better.

Or I can send some of my current students after your students. I bet you any money my guys can take 'em!

HUGS Em I've been in the same situation...some people just suck...there's nothing you can do about it. You did your best and he made a bad choice...it's not you it's him I promise... I'm just so sorry that happened. There is no way you will be held at fault. I hate when they go all mob mentality on you. I've got one trick that works some. I get a clip board and when they start to go all wonky I start making notes and muttering to myself ...then I ask one to spell their name so I can make sure I get it right. When they ask what I'm doing I say ( in a falsely sweet voice) oh I wouldn't worry about it ... scares the crap out of them...giggle

No no no! Just because I was having a day doesn't mean that no-one else can make use of the wornderful support network. Nothing that makes you feel sad could possibly be stupid. I'm guessing you had some very good memories associated with that van. At that point it no longer becomes a mere object and of course it's going to be a wrench parting from it. Saying that, did you get more cashy money for drums or golf clubs?! you need to indulge yourself more!

Thanks for your support Gee, I'll be sure to threaten them with you if they play up tomorrow!

Wish I could think of a way to spice up the lesson more. It's about recognising animal foodstuffs. Anyone got inventive ideas? Sorry, shouldn't be getting you guys to plan my lessons for me but I've lost a bit of confidence today.

Em love..I'd make a scavenger hunt. Give them a sheet with list of animals on it..then make piles of a variety of foodstuffs suitable for the different animals. Pace piles of foodstuffs or pictures around room ( have them numbered) Have students wander room and match animal to food ( using number) and give 2 reasons why they selected that food for that animal. Have prizes for first 3 people to correctly identify all food... then you can have people give their reasoning for picking the food... does that help??

It's bizarre! I didn't read this until after the lesson and yet this is really close to what I did! Each student had to secretly find a type of food and then the others had to guess what it was. Much tiptoing round and getting to feel superior when someone guessed 'your' food wrong. It worked really well and actually a fun time was had by all! What a relief. I hope it lasts when I have more than just half.

Okay, enough teacher troubles. I'll go and hang out at the new bar and find out what's going on with everyone else!
