La Brown Girl: Ransom Gone Wrong
http://browngirl615.blogspot.com/2013/07/ransom-gone-wrong.html
Because being brown isn't just about the color of your skin. This week’s prompt:. Tell a story that begins with a ransom note. My response after the jump. 8220;Give us $10,000 in unmarked bills or the Jack gets it.”. 8220;Think he’ll know it was us? 8221; I asked with a giggle in my voice as I slipped the note under the windshield wiper. 8220;Maybe,” replied Erika. 8220;We should have asked for more money,” said Ernie. 8220;Hurry up guys! What if the security guard catches us? 8221; warned Ruben. One nig...

30 things: August 2012
http://30thingslist.blogspot.com/2012_08_01_archive.html
Things I want to do in my 30s. Friday, August 10, 2012. I totaled the number of hours I wrote these past 30 days and it came out to 19.91. I counted partial hours in the total. So I met my goal of 18 hours (5 hours per week minus two vacation days) set out in the writing contract. I could have done better on documenting the time. I would often forget to document it daily and lump them together on a day when I actually remembered to document my time. I produced 18 posts on my Annette's Notebook blog.

La Brown Girl: 03.13

Because being brown isn't just about the color of your skin. My new school is different. It’s on the opposite side of this “city.”. The students, although relatively the same age, are different. Their recall is much better thanks to different sleep habits and better nutrition at home. The air of entitlement bugs me though. My ethics bother some of them thinking that a phone call from home will make me back down, but I double cross every “t” and double dot every “I”. Subscribe to: Posts (Atom).

Because being brown isn't just about the color of your skin. I finally did it. I left the place I began my teaching career. I always heard that it would be a sad and difficult even, but it turns out, it wasn’t. I know this is sort of cheesy, but this entire process has reaffirmed my faith. Since last summer, I prayed. I asked for things to work out for the best, and if I was meant to leave, let things work out in my favor. So perhaps, this is why it wasn’t so sad or difficult. Subscribe to: Posts (Atom).

Because being brown isn't just about the color of your skin. The Power of Literature. With the end of the Potter series looming at the end of the week, and the Twilight series final movie installments just around the turn of the calendar, some people are saying good-bye to their childhood literature comforts. As a lover of words and stories, I have always found comfort in stories, poetry, and my own words. For so long, I felt like I was the only one who felt this need to live between the pages of. What's...

Because being brown isn't just about the color of your skin. Its funny how as we grow older, waking up early becomes an everyday thing. As much as I love to sleep, I know that if I dont wake up early on the weekends the work week is going to be utter hell. I went outside this morning and I saw some intersting things:.

La Brown Girl: Bandwagon Plan
http://browngirl615.blogspot.com/2013/07/bandwagon-plan.html
Because being brown isn't just about the color of your skin. So, here's my plan:. Write as often as possible, but at least once a week. Use my teaching prompts as blog prompts. As a bonus, I'd love for anyone still reading this to play along. If you have a blog and would like, write to the prompt and link your blog post in the comments. My first prompt is:.
