Friday...But We Don't Have Any More Dreams...

With great thanks, it is Friday. Compared to my old school, it's been all calm on the western front--mostly. 
But for our up and coming school, there have been some rough times this week. 10D has paper ball issues and 9D two afternoons ago was a living nightmare. I even had to "break formats" in that 9D class, not able to sit with either Unison Reading group (sorry to Principal Nariman and C., originator of Unison Reading, who may be reading this). 

Meanwhile, a nice freshman girl, C., from 9D was with Mr. R. today in his class, talking about dreams. While writing down her dreams, she told Mr. R.: "Mister, you're a teacher. You don't have dreams anymore."

Knowing this was said in a purely naive way made it funny. And, I'm pretty sure she meant that becoming a teacher was achieving one of his goals. Although I'm not sure that this was meant as his sole goal in life.
