Hurricane Sandy

I'm sure there are many students ready this that are happy to be home today so thank you Sandy, for the hurricane day. So far this storm has been pretty calm at my house. Now that I have said that out loud I'm sure the worst will come. I'm just thankful that we still have power. I am spending my day catching up on school work. What are you doing during the storm?

Thanks to Sandy I was able to finish common app and submit my applications to my colleges.
Did you lose power Mrs. Taylor?

It was a great day to catch up on a lot of stuff considering we couldn't step outside! I finished up my college applications. Now awaiting the answers!

I am so thankful that my power didn't go out! That would have been a real bummer.

I was browsing through my news feeds and saw this posted as a featured sight. After looking into it i figured that this article and pictures are true captions of the devastation left by hurricane sandy. http://www.theatlantic.com/infocus/2012/11/hurricane-sandy-the-aftermath/100397/ and if the link is broken try clicking my name, i added the url to it too.

I spent my day off catching up on homework and sleeping til noon! It was a day of much needed rest. I also was constantly checking storm updates and hoping Gov. Patrick would cancel schools another day.

I think that the governor certainly let us students down by allowing the decision to have or not have school to be made locally. I wish he was on our side! I was depending on him.

If only he had kept the class of 2013 seniors in mind when he was making his decision. His decision was really the icing on the cake.

I was so nervous this day! I take an online class, and all the work was due that night. I kept thinking that if the power went out, I wouldn't have been able to turn in any of my work!

Red Sox time is here!

Everyone has reported to Spring training and the first pre-season game is Wednesday at 7:05. I am very excited, but I will have to skip this game because our boys basketball team has its playoff game at the same time and they are more important to me than the Redsox.

One School One Book

I have been reading the book "The Day the World Came to Town" and something is on my mind that I have to share with everyone. Can you believe how incredibly generous and trusting the people in Gander are? I would like to think that I would be the same, but I am not sure. I know that I would definately bring supplies to where ever the people were being placed, but I am not sure that I would open my house up to strangers. I couldn't get over how people were invited into the homes to take showers and the home owners would leave the house and tell them to make themselves at home. I would like to think that I could be that way, but I am not sure I would. What about you? Could you be that trusting of stangers?

What are you reading?

Have you read any good books lately? I am trying to find a great book for the incoming freshmen to read over the summer. The current freshmen class read "The Number Devil", but they didn't like that choice so I am trying to find something more enjoyable for the students. Right now I am reading "October Sky" by Homer Hickham. I am only 60 pages into the book, but I am enjoying the little that I have read. I would like to hear about any books that you have read and would recommend.
