somehow i found myself taking a personality test of sorts, i began searching for a free myer-briggs, or somthing to that effect, test and stumbled upon something else. I discoverd the aforementioned title is what I apperantly am, which somehow based on agreeing on disaggreing to several statments the system has been able to completely and adequately described me. Even more so, it easily outlines jobs that I either currently have, teaching, or those I am/was interested in, counseling, pyschology, etc.
it is kind of incrediable that by taking some test it can outline my personality. jung was truly an inspirational. I think its interesting from a serious of statements, that a test can identify me. pyschometrics can be really interesting, at times at least. this makes me miss actually learning, which is something I absolutly do not do at my current "masters" program.
btw. motion city soundtrack is fantastic.
today was a long day. I am trying to make a real effort at accomplishing the things on my ever expanding to do list. I spent time after a long day at work trying to do so. However, i was exhausted by the never ending chaos in my room. One of my students has been on a rampage the last few days, this is only made worse by the usual antics my children are into. One is screaming at this point, another is throwing something around the room, another is repeating everything I say, one is talking to himself and the last is trying to pull some control into the room. Ugh. Sometimes I have to laugh and other times its hard to find the smile. Back to the student on a rampage, we'll call him Jorge. Jorge has been in a very hostile mood lately. He is the one who was kicking me with his snow boots, until I took them off and throw them accross the room. Today he nearly kicked another, much smaller student, in the head. Lovely. He has knarled the hands of my paras, and ruined my sweater my pulling until it strectch nearly 5 times the orignal size. sigh.
Today was no different than the last few days for me. He is hitting, scratching, pinching, screaming, and kicking all day. Sometimes, I just do not know what to do. There are weeks where he is doing so much better. My hands have remained scratch free for weeks. Then all of the sudden he is out for blood. There is nothing I can do to stop him. Today he was so upset, he went on for twenty minutes until he could hardly catch his breath. I know I only have six kids with three paras, but these six kids take at least four of us to handle. I so much want to help them make progress, but sometimes I lose sight of how to do that. I try.
At the end of the day, Eric was listening to the morning meeting music with headphones on. He was so cute I nearly exploded with laughter. He was standing, weaving back and forth to the music while singing. He was singing "Simon Says." He was terrible, off beat and tone deaf, but just so cute. I was convering my face in hysterics. Kids are too much.
I am drinking wine and it tastes good.
p.s. this was super random, goes no where entry. lame.
