Been a while

I know it has been a while since I posted but right now i am on my spring break from school and also decided to take off from target too.  I wanted to go somewhere for at least a day like Gettysburg but couldn't because I had to get a tooth pulled.  I got it pulled yesterday and let me tell you. I feel like a part of my soul go with it. Like i feel kind of sad that a part of me was taken out.  It's just a tooth but it has a symbolic feel to it.  Anyways for the past couple of days I have been working in my parents yard doing some gardening and also working on some homework.  I am probably going to go down to the inner harbor just to walk around and take in the sites since I don't have the means to do anything else that most likely costs.  That darn tooth.  I am currently missing some really good friends right now because I really enjoy talking to them but thats life.  I keep telling myself that all the time and it does not work.  My spring break ends the 26 and i have alot of homework to do.  Till next time. kalinýchta. (which means goodnight in greek)

Dance Failure

The dance went alright.  My friend didn't show because she was sick and her boyfriend had to work a double shift which was ok.  You can't hold that against anyone.  I danced for about 5 minutes and the wall and I became fast friends. 

Today it is raining and I don't like it because of the dreayness of it. School is going ok. Don't have anything planned for spring but maybe something exciting will happen. I don't know.

I have one more class to do till my first half of my 99 hour certification is done then on to the next one.  I really can't wait till it is done.

Till next time.

School Dance

Today my schools history club and among other clubs are hosting a dance through the decades.  It should be exciting.  I will most likely to become a wallflower but that is o.k. that comes natural for me seeing that i don't know how to dance.  But I have a friend going so it will be interesting to see me make a fool out of myself.  It will be late before I get in because I will be gone all day.  I have a 9 o'clock tutoring appointment for my math class than I work from 1030am to 230 pm. So it will definitly be an interesting day.  Till next time

Circus and other things.

The circus went fine. I was supposed to be in charge of two children but had three. Which was ok I didn't really mind.  They had alot of different acts there. But some were the same from the last time I went like the motorcylers in the round cage, the elephant and tiger acts, the tight rope walkers and the body cotortionists.  But they had different clowns, different ring leader and they had people who did tricks on the trampolines.  I really liked that one. 

I am currently working on a couple things.  First I am working on getting my degree in early childhood education so I can teach Kindergarten but will be certified to teach Pre-K to 3rd grade, I am also working on earning my 99 hour certification for child care centers.  I have already 9 hours with my first aid and cpr certification.  I am almost done with my first 45 hour certification with two more classes left.  I have 7 more saturdays after this one and then I will be done my certification all together.  Third I was asked by my english teacher to write a story for a homework assignment and I'm done writing it for the class but not done writing it for pleasure.  I plan to emphasise on a few points and add a few more attractions to the story. so who knows what will come next

Till Next Time.    Michael P. Shanklin

Circus

Hello again, 
       Today I am supposed to go to the circus with the Children's Learning Center that I work at. It should be interesting Because I have never gone with them. I've been to the circus before with family. I love working at the center, it gives me the experience I need to work as a teacher and also shows me how good or bad of a teacher i will be.  The "children" kids like me alot so I know I am doing something right. I will post on how the circus went

I hope everyone has a wonderful day. Until next time.
