so what did the school do when someone pushed and hit my son?
1/2 day in school suspension
1/2 day ( the afternoon is a whopping 2 hrs btw) home suspension
he can't go to the badminton tournament ,apparently a big deal to him...
I've been fighting all morning with the school about this, hearing about their "restorative consequences" for this child.
How he will have to brain storm about what he did wrong blah blah fucking blah.

I am so incredibly hurt and pissed off I have bent over backwards for that school and this fucking kid was back there before 3:30 by himself to pick up his stuff, his parents were suppose to come with him, but did they NO...so all this "co-operation" from his parents is suppose to be done too...will it? no. thats pretty obvious.
Is this the first time this kid has done anything like this? no.
I know a parent who finally moved their child to another school because of this kid.

smirked at me in the hall when I passed him this morning


So fuck you school , fuck you very much for all the support and help you have been, glad I've gone out of my way to help you at every turn only to get shit on for my efforts, glad my son will get to be in the same hallway as this kid without seeing any consequences that kid had , even though he's been "consequenced "to death by the fucking school.

Good to know when you have an identified child and work really hard to make both the school and your child happy you are so richly rewarded.

this was a commissioned doll for my friend Slipsy. I hope she likes it
HEY how did candy get in there???? Oh well she's such a camera hog.
This is a sewn synthetic weft, face paint redone, lips & chin carved 3 sets of original Blythe eyes, and one set hand painted custom eyes. I made her little outfit as well, but I bought her little bunny. I have 2 more commissions to finish on LBE's then I'm going to work on my Blythe Custom.

My son's teacher is moving on after the march break. It's wonderful for him because he is moving on to a tech job with the board of education which is what he really wants to do. BUT it totally sux for the rest of us.

HE IS THE BEST TEACHER I HAVE EVER MET BAR NONE.

Without him my add/odd son would have been shipped out of the school into a behavioural school in grade 5.
His class is devastated, I saw the biggest toughest kids bawling their eyes out, the boys crying just as hard as the girl. It was a true testament to how good a teacher he is. He's also just a great all around person, and I LOVED talking to him when I work in the school. I'm going to miss him as much as the kids. I found myself holding back tears as the kids came out of the class, and every so often waking up wthink, awe crap Mr. Yip is going to be gone after the break.


I'm very worried about Tay, I'm worried this will set him back or that the new teacher won't "get" Tay, and we'll be back to the bad behaviour.

Why is it the people who really have the talent for teaching, want to do other things?

Jury Duty

Please pass this on to everyone in your email address book. It is spreading fast so be prepared should you get this call.

Most of us take the summons for jury duty seriously, but enough people skip out on their civic duty, that a new and ominous kind of scam has surfaced. Fall for it and your identity could be stolen, reports CBS. In this con, someone calls pretending to be a court official who threateningly says a warrant has been issued for your arrest because you didn't show up for jury duty. The caller claims to be a jury coordinator. If you protest that you never received a summons for jury duty, the scammer asks you for your Social Security number and date of birth so he or she can verify the information and cancel the arrest warrant. Sometimes they even ask for credit card numbers. Give out any of this information and .... Bingo! Your identity has just been stol en. The scam has been reported so far in 11 states. This scam is particularly insidious because they use intimidation over the phone to try to bully people into giving information by pretending they're with the court system. The FBI and the federal court system have issued nationwide alerts on their web sites, warning consumers about the fraud.

a friend passed this on to me so I'm passing it on to all of you. double checked on snopes for validity.
