Well, It's a New Year and so far I gotta say I am doing good.
Finished out the school year with 11 out of 14 students advancing to the next Semester for my massage program at the college I currently teach at. However one of the 3 students decided they wanted a conference with me and the Dean to discuss the grades that were received. Needless to say, this student was aggressive and threatening over the phone, but the evidence was clear that the student got the grade deserved, and I say this because in one class this student failed 5 out of 6 tests, and in another course, the student failed to complete homework that could have helped bring the grade up. I have no sympathy for people that want to complain that they have a life outside of school (job, family... etc..), I have no sympathy because I took the very same courses that I am teaching, and I went through the same thing. I worked 8 hrs, went to school til 10 pm at night, came home, and was up studying til 1-2 am in the morning and turned around and did it again.
Christmas was ok, I had no water for two days due to my pipes freezing and when they thawed out, water could be heard under the house. Got a new Paintball Marker for Christmas. And before the New Year, got to meet up with an old Military friend I hadn't seen for 15 years.
That's all I got for now, I'll try to get on here when I can. Maybe around the Spring break time frame, I'll be back, or if I just need to vent.
