I DON'T CARE

This weekend going into today has been a semi disappointing time....I First realized just how lazy people could be when i was in rehearsal this weekend. It gets to be really frustrating when you look around and realize that everyone is not giving something 100% and you are giving it 110%. I was always taught by my mom, if you're going to do something then do it right. and always give it all you've got. I guess every one's mother did not subscribe to the same way of thinking. I try to walk into every situation and give it all I've got but sometimes that gets tiffed by others not caring or giving half as much as I do. So the phrase I DON'T CARE was sort of the theme for a lot of people this weekend or at least that is what i received from them. Then today at work that same motto seemed to apply. I gave a project to my students where they had to select a musical of their choice. pick a character of their choice and tell the story of the musical. there had to be a musical number involved in the project somewhere and that was all the rules that i put on the project... i thought it would be fun... i wanted them to have fun with it and be creative and now i am two classes into the day and only two kids decided to do it... what an easy grade. my kids in Macon would have tore this up. but then again they cared! i don't know.. tomorrow will be a new day!!!

Duuuude! They didn't want to do that project? That's crazy! I agree with Morgan, your teaching skills are going down the drain there :/ You're too good for that lol

wow! those are some extremely lazy students that dont give a shit about how great of a teacher you are!
that was one of my favorite projects you gave to us, and u would usually put a little more rules into it....i see why you hate your new students, i would too.
