THE DAYS FLY BY

Last week I subbed for two elementary schools and two different high schools (Dos Pueblos and San Marcos). In one of the elementary schools I got to hold a leopard gecko and we learned about fish. Also, during PE a fifth grade girl screamed every single time someone made a basket, whether or not they were on her team. She would hold both arms straight down at her sides, fists clenched, eyes closed, little ears sticking out through her hair, and scream like a little girl. Which she was.

At the other elementary school the students asked me to be their teacher for FOREVER after I did some magic tricks for them. I made a ring disappear and pulled it out of the air. I also took my thumb clean off of my hand! Boy, did that hurt. And I solved the rubik's cube in about 50 seconds for them.

At San Marcos I subbed for a teacher that I play poker with every other Friday. I asked the kids if they knew their teacher played poker. They did not know it, and I hoped it was ok to share that personal information. Got two or three kids solving the rubik's cube.

At Dos Pueblos we had four people solving the rubik's cube in my class at lunch. It was beautiful.
