I Survived

We had a field trip for our Juniors today.  I survived.  It was very stressful because I am the Group Leader of my team of teachers for Juniors.  I did a lot of the getting ready for the trip.  Like setting up the lunches, which was the most stressful.  We did it.  

I was so scared because these are the same kids we tried to take on a field trip to a movie as Freshmen two years ago.  Well, they stole candy and made a mess so we had to take them back to school without finishing the movie.  I think this is where my anxiety came from; I was very worried they were going to again prove to the public mind that our students cannot do the right thing, that they are immature and cannot behave or learn.  They did a wonderful job of doing what they needed to.  They may have even earned another field trip for this year.  Yipee!

I am tired.  I am glad it is over and that I get to go to Burger Friday tonight.  I also get to have a sleepover with my 5 year old friend, Aiden.  We are camping out at his house with his mom.  Should be a good time!

Chow!
