i wanna be a teacher!

the play is OVER with thank God! or did i already post about this? It's been over with...it was a good learning experience though....and last week i worked with a camp from surrounding areas of the town i'm at for school, like Cairo, IL and Mounds City, places where the children's paren'ts can't afford to send them to a summer camp, also kids from C'dale too...the camp went well and think it helped to change my decision on what i want to do for grad school.... i think i want to go into education and eventually become a teacher. for what grade, i have no clue...i worked with kids that were going to the 4th and 5th gr, a few were going to the 6th, 7th and 8th grade....the camp was fun, so, i dont know...but i'm scared because i dont know if i can handel children for 9 months out of the year....those kids at the camp made me want to strangle them, but in the end i was sad that they were gone and i knew that i wouldnt see some of them...one of the little girls in the camp kept calling me mama, lol, and then on the last day of the camp, at the end of the day, she was 9 years old, she said "i wont see you again will i mama?" and i was like "no, you probably wont"...and i felt sad after that...then she said "well don't worry i'm going to ask God if i can see you again"...after that the tears started swelling up in my eyes and i had to walk away.....

we'll see if i'ma do grad school after i talk to some of the professors in the education department and if i will do it here, back home in Chicago, or some place else in another state....i have no clue....but we'll see...i just have to pray on it....


i'm going home this weekend for a wedding, that's on a sunday...who has their weddings on a sunday...but anyways, it's my second cousin, and he's finally getting married at the ripe age of 45....he's my daddy's first cousin...so i get to see some family this weekend and get my Ppopeyes, Garrett's popcorn, a gyro, some Giordanos pizza....ya'll know the drill...

www.thefacebook.com and www.myspace.com are so freaking addictive...thats where i'm at mostly when i'm online, or on yahoo...but i havent been online much until after the play ended...

i'll try to post later so that i don't neglect this blog too bad, i actually took this, well part of it from my blog on myspace that i posted today...i wasnt even gonna post on herebut it's time to go....plus it's almost time to leave work and go to bible study, and i need to get something to eat cuz i'm hungry than a mug! peace...
