Going to Baton Rouge Tonight

Amanda is taking the GRE tomorrow at 8:30am. She is worried sick. Even made me make multiplication flash cards. Funny thing is I quizzed her after I made them and she nailed them. (Dont tell her, but she underestimates her intelligence.)

So we are making a small weekend of it. I will grade papers while she panics and draws a blank in the testing room. Tonight we are going to enjoy ourselves and I will not let her think about the test. No need stressing over it tonight.

I am nearly finished grading the exams and final papers. My god I will have to come up with a more interesting topic next time. “How does one become successful? Define success and give three causes.” Overgeneralized essays about achieving one’s goals. Its kind of pathetic. I havent gotten to the break away paper, yet. You know the one teachers. The one that completely goes against the rules. The one that wakes you up at 3 in the morning as you were sleeping through the grading process. hehe

I miss the excitement and the care. Students can only care so much about composition. (well I hope I am wrong. Next semester I am completely going against my grammar first rules and mixing it up. hehe)

Have fun everyone, hope the grading is not too strenous. Oh and there is no way in hell I am teaching 4 classes next semester.
