11 down, 11 to go!

yeaah, boy - thurs is the last day of school!!! but since 5th grade graduation was yesterday, exactly half of my students have head for the hills already :D the ones who are left are doing a combination of light schoolwork, cleaning out my classroom, and watching "Alvin and the Chipmunks." (I don't know if I could stand the original movie, but it's very amusing in Spanish-I recommend it) even with the reduced numbers, they managed to eat 6.5 pizzas yesterday!!

otherwise, I've taken 2 out of my 4 tests to qualify as a teacher in NY (brutal!) and I'm applying to new jobs as they are posted. keep your fingers crossed for me, ppls!

as for all you teachers who need a hint on how to keep their heads on straight at this crazy time of year, two words: champagne and cigarettes - every night.
