These are the challenges that define us. I think in this situation, you made the right choice. You were able to satisfy everybody. <br /><br />One thing that may help in the future, is to get your children involved with your college life. You could make a calendar that shows where and when you will be in school, doing homework, or meeting with other class members. If this is posted for your kids to see, they will always know where you are at. they could also check of each day, like a count-down calendar..<br /><br />Good luck, I wish you nothing but the best.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5327855039062158681.post-65475335944279920632010-11-08T14:35:08.561-05:002010-11-08T14:35:08.561-05:00Gave this speech on Thursday November 4th, and if ...Gave this speech on Thursday November 4th, and if I must say so myself, which I don't - I slaughtered it and drug it home. Some of the evaluator comments include, "great eye contact and humor", "good message!", "Good quality of tone/voice". I practiced the speech ahead of time but every time I did, I could only read it from the paper. When I did the speech, I set the paper down in front of me and only looked at it a couple of times - using it as a reference and gave the bulk of my speech which was a little different from the text version from concentrating on the content, which I already knew. The one thing that was suggested that I could improve on, was to stop the purposeless pacing, putting hands in pockets, and using ums/ers to transition from one thought to the next. Overall, very good experience.Sgtmackenziehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13164601735776150350noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5327855039062158681.post-39276572476398651922010-06-21T23:26:33.427-04:002010-06-21T23:26:33.427-04:00I am a huge fan of Heinlein.

I mean I understand that ...That is exactly right... I mean I understand that something needed to be done I completley agree but something that actually went in his file when this is the first time this has ever happened. The fighting at least and she says that she did not do this because she is mad but because she wants to help well do you think branding the kid as a fighter and a theif is gonna make it easier on him in <br />1st grade when the teacher reads the file and says oh this little kid stole and punched another kid in the stomach. I think another step should have been in there may a normal note home and then the conduct report for his permanent file I just think they do it to prove a point even though she loves him to death she is in charge you know.<br /><br />Anyway thanks for listening.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14149677140054257671noreply@blogger.com
