It's Almost Time....

With Student Leadership Academy under way, the start of school is only just around the corner. Hampton Preparatory requires their students to come to SLA in preparation for the school year and it serves as a time to reinforce the core values and vision of the school. But when your sitting in a classroom during July you really don't care what the the teachers in front of you are saying, because your wondering why your wearing an oxford shirt and slacks at 8 in the morning while your public school friends are in bed. Haha. It's been fun though, in working with mostly all the freshman, the bright young individuals that I will be teaching, I've only come to grow even more excited for the impeding year.

Hampton though has been undergoing remodeling, and although we've had students in the building the contractors, as usual, fell a bit behind schedule. Luckily though, my room has been released and I will start creating an atmosphere for exemplary students tomorrow! Being that this is my first year teaching however, I have no idea what to put up on them walls(except a blue devil of some sort), but I'ma do something.

In other news, crazy fact. Did you know that your cell phone harbors more germs that a public restroom door handle? That's just nasty. Getting all in your ear and mouth and what not....

Also, if you still happen to be a Lebron James fan and live in Cleveland, then you might want to keep that on the DL. Some super excited James fan was reppin' his new jersey at a Indians game and got booed and taunted by the crowd. The situation supposedly got so bad that personnel removed him from the stadium, I'm guessing for his safety. This is just ridiculous. Cleveland, I know you had nothing before James came to town, and then the Golden Boy took you to new heights that have since been obliterated in the last month, but please do better. We know your bitter, but it's starting to get annoying.

  1. I'm so excited for you to start teaching, Trae! (Also, I agree with your aforementioned sentiments directed toward Cleveland). I wish you luck as you enter into your first weeks of experiencing high school from the other side!
