Final Thoughts/Mad Ramblings
Last Post!!!
Yay!!
See even Liz is happy that this is my last post!
All good things must come to an end and all that cliche stuff I guess *stares blankly at screen*
I will say this though, the bloggin experience is certainly a fun one and is far more interactive than a boring old journal in a book... I mean I got to put videos in this journal!!!
Now as it is only fair as the resident classclown I should post one funny video to amuse y'all
So below is an ad from the Anit-boredom campaign....
never let your life be dull. (and if you feel that it is getting dull for any reason whatsoever, please never hestiate to call me as it could develop into a serious condition known as "cynicalteachersyndrome" ).
I often felt and even said that "Never before this day and age have we been more connected to everyone around the globe... yet never before have we been so disengaged from one another as individuals."
....... I say blogs help fight this disengagement not only on a classroom level... but on a global level... we are now learning that there are far more dynamic ways in which to connect with people.. I can now keep in contact with my family and friends around the globe instantly with the use of IM messaging programs (like MSN messenger) and VOIP programs (like Skype).
Don't be afraid to embrace New Learning because we like this subject... are heading into the future (gosh I just hope it doesn't turn out like the Terminator movies...)
When you're teaching your students make sure you give them the right information... you'll never know what they'll achieve in their career choices... *points to picture*
and so for now this blog must come to an end
aww don't feel sad... it's not you
well actually it's not me either... *thinks*
wait why does this have to be the last post?
Ok this is "possibly" the last post... who knows maybe I could capture an innocent victim and turn them to the ways of the blog... and strap them to this darn chair and have them carry on this crazy work of mine! Come to think of it... it probably would come under the cruelty to innocent people law...
Anyway enough mad ramblings from me
I hope everyone has a kickass time being the exciting teachers I've had a glimpse of seeing this year!
Radness!!
cheerio!

It's slander
With the words you use
You're a parasite in black and white
Do anything for news
And you don't go and buy it
And they won't glorify it
To read it sanctifies it
Then why do we keep foolin' ourselves
Just because you read it in a magazine
Or see it on the TV screen
Don't make it factual
woo!!
fankies Anch!
and Stu where o where did your comment go? ... :-(
