Cake and other adventures

BEFORE


AFTER





LOOK AT WHAT I HAVE CREATED! HA! Thanks to Aunt Patty, I can now bake rhubarb cake!

HAZAA!

In other news--- my life is boring. No-- kidding.

I interviewed for another job today (CROSSING FINGERS) I really want it. First of all because it's awesome and second of all because it would give me health insurance :)

I spoke at the detention center today regarding domestic violence. My "delinquents" (as I lovingly call them) were very ADD and I ended up redirecting them several times during discussion. Then we watched a 20 minute video on D.V. --it wasn't Spielberg or anything but it was from 2000 or so, so no super bad hair, slang or wardrobe. I actually found it really powerful. They interview former victims, play 911 calls-- it's riveting.

After the movie, I asked:

"What did you think of the movie?"

A girl replied: "It was boring."

"Okay," I said. "What parts did you find boring?"

She paused for a minute and said, "I dunno.... the parts where I didn't pay attention."

*BANG HEAD AGAINST WALL*

Somedays I don't know how teachers handle it.

Apparently there is another Stanley Cup game tonight so I suspect stinky, beer-drinking men will be at my apartment. It may be time to flee!
