Spring Break has possibilities…

As one who doesn’t usually take a lot of initive in things…I managed to do so the last couple days.
Prior to my Wed. & Thurs. class I was finding myself asking "What are your thought’s on the whole switching Spring Break thing"…to, well ALL the students (the whole 2 other ones) in my Social Studies class, and initially 2 of the ones from Science, and then I did practically pounce Linnea in the hall about the topic. I was nice…Told her I wasn’t above bribery. *laughs* [Which honestly, Hello, Slytherin, so I’m not…I was willing to give up at least $50 if I thought it would sway her mind…I might have even been talked up to $100!…Yeah…*shakes head @ self* *laughs*]
Anyway…Social Studies folded to my will rather easily. *grins*
Science…Well, we are now tentatively looking at changing it, to a more than likely we will be changing it. Only 8 of the 11 of us showed up last night. One of them being me…2 of them being those from my Social Studies class the night before…1 of them having unchangeable plans for the week of TCAPS Spring Break, so is defiantly wanting the change. Yet another doesn’t really care, as he’s taking his break the week following TCAPS Spring Break, so it effects him in no particular way.
The remaining 3…2 of them are in my Diverse Perspectives class, of which I informed them is already set to take TCAPS Spring Break…The last one, like the other two, have other classes as well…There is talk amongst them of talking to their professors and seeing about the change. Linnea is looking at if her classes don’t change, that she is going to end up missing half of her classes anyway. (She is in my DP class, so that one is already set to my preferred schedule.)

So…Yeah…Looks promising…& as bad as it sounds…I’m to the point that I am willing to skip the 2nd half of my mid-term if weeks don’t change.
We shall just have to wait and see.

Ug…Last night’s art. *shakes head*
I hate how it came out. It was thicker wire than I would like…But it’s what I had. It has to be whatever I used in 3-D design…Or, it could very well be something I got then, and decided then it was too thick to work with too…I’m sure I have that detailed somewhere in here if that is the case. Anyway…So yeah. I have had pieces, thus far, that I’m not excited about, that I feel like I haven’t put enough work into, that should have/could have been better. I kind of feel like I ‘phoned in’ some of the stuff while Wasil was here…Tho, I was quite pleased with how the snow flakes looked, even though they were simple and took next to no time.
On the other hand, I’m quite pleased with some of the simplest things…Like the Mini Aquarium, which now sits amongst Sonja’s many gathered things in her ‘Happy Place’ in her room. [Which is populated with the things that make her happy…I really should take a picture…It’s cluttered, but amazing. & she came up with the idea all on her own, and implemented it. Too bad I can’t get Harley to do the same thing. We are suppose to be making him a box filled with things that make him happy, so he can look at it when he’s having a mood…There is a no go, unless I prod. Although he does have 4 slips (or so) of paper in his happy jar (those good things that happen to him)…Tho they mostly refer to him beating levels in Doom3. O.o]

Trying to get into classrooms for observations…Thus far, only having quasi-luck. I think I have one more or less set, tho I haven’t heard back a final date that I can actually observe during. I’ve got a call out that was me leaving a message with some unknown factor at the CHAR-EM ISD…I tried e-mailing, then calling my one professor, as she mentioned having Native American students, tho I’m not sure if she meant in the past, or currently, and that would work for my cultural/ethnically diverse class room. It’s not like we have a whole lot of diversity up here…

Well…I have to be off to get the Critter’s shortly…*looks at invsi-watch* It appears they both may be staying all day today without any incidents. Tho, I do suppose they did yesterday as well…And maybe Wednesday…*thinks* I don’t remember anymore, all the days blend together…
& somewhere along the lines, I want to produce some decent art. *nods*
