101 Here I Come. Sometimes the journey is funner than the destination! Sunday, August 26, 2012. Christina Perri Songs Are Not Depressing.They're the Story of My Life. This past week at work, I would consider a "lazy week" because I was doing a lot of testing and little to nothing of teaching. I told my students that if they were good, and stayed on task I would play background music; some of them actually work better with music- it's the generation of ADD due to electronic devices- most. If you like blog...

101 Here I Come. Sometimes the journey is funner than the destination! Tuesday, August 6, 2013. Again with the Last Minute Hiring. . . Well, this is crazy! Once again I get hired right before school starts with little to no prep time. I'm still taking it in. I still am shocked and amazed everytime I hear "you're hired! I thought all the hiring was done for the 2013-2014 school year, but I guess not because there was one spot left. for me! Imagine the scene in Legally Blonde. At the end I asked when I wou...

101 Here I Come. Sometimes the journey is funner than the destination! Saturday, March 8, 2014. Kerri 4.0. . . What? After careful evaluation, ok really just looking at the 20 point font, it was a certificate of achievemnet. What? It was for getting a 4.0. I may have shot myself in the foot with this one, by starting off with such high achievements I have nowhere to go. Blast my English skills! The first time in college I did well, I made dean's list a couple semesters, but I never got a 4.0. High School...

101 Here I Come. Sometimes the journey is funner than the destination! Tuesday, June 26, 2012. Being sick is no fun. I had plans of being productive today (yesterday was my "Lazy Day"), but thanks to the stomach flu I have to sip on gatorade (to stay hydrated in 110 degree weather); eat crackers, chicken noodle soup, and applesauce; and watch TV (perhaps another Millionaire Matchmaker marathon, yes please! While laying in bed watching TV, VH1 was playing videos- I know, shocker right? Monday, June 4, 2012.

http://literature4theilliterate.blogspot.com/2009_03_01_archive.html
I'm Quite Illiterate, but I Read A Lot. Thursday, March 5, 2009. The Jane Austen Curse, or Hitting a "Reader's Block". Have you ever hit a wall in a book? You're reading along and everything is fine, and then. You hit a wall, or a "reader's block" if you will. I don't know how it comes about, but it happens, and it happens to me a lot. I am currently reading Sense and Sensibility. How does this happen? Is there a cure? A short and sweet book. I have started Emma, Persuasion,. And Pride and Prejudice.

I'm Quite Illiterate, but I Read A Lot. Thursday, March 5, 2009. John Flanagan - The Ranger's Apprentice: The Ruins of Gorlan. I saw this book advertised as a good read on the blog UVSC English Teachers. I had purchased it a few months ago and hadn't yet read it because it's from a series. When I saw, however, the recommendation for it, I couldn't put it off any longer. I really enjoyed the book and highly recommend it. Especially if you liked Veil of Darkness. Series) by Greg Park. The Jane Austen Curse...

101 Here I Come. Sometimes the journey is funner than the destination! Wednesday, October 23, 2013. When Life Gives You Lemons . . . Buy a Watermelon Instead. So, 2013 will be known as the year that just didn't work out. Oh well, I'll just chalk it up and move on. Through some unpleasant experiences (lemons) I decided that teaching isn't for me, and I'll just transition into something else (watermelon). Here's the story . . . Enough of the lemons, they really are making me sour right now. I bet you're wo...

101 Here I Come: February 2012
http://russellkerri.blogspot.com/2012_02_01_archive.html
101 Here I Come. Sometimes the journey is funner than the destination! Sunday, February 12, 2012. On Friday I saw the cutest movie The Vow. Starring Rachel McAdams, and Channing Tatum. It was cute. Sweet. Romantic. Hilarious. All of the above. Throughout the whole movie I couldn't help but think about the irony of the menus that they wrote their vows on: Cafe Mnemonic. Now I don't know if that cafe actually exists in Chicago, and if it does, how coincidental is that? In Greek Mythology Mnemosyne. Go Fug ...

101 Here I Come: Rantings and Ravings of Inconsequential Things
http://russellkerri.blogspot.com/p/rantings-and-ravings-of-inconsequential.html
101 Here I Come. Sometimes the journey is funner than the destination! Rantings and Ravings of Inconsequential Things. In this journey of life we have things that we absolutely love, for some it's puppies and kittens, for others it's food, for me I like those things- I wish there was a potion that would keep puppies puppies because they're just not as cute when they're older- but I really love. . . lots of things. That list would go on ad nauseum. The reason I started this list) Bad spelling and grammar.
