Finding Mind-O

These past few weeks after Hawaii have just been a blur. With all the make-up work, tests, presentations, after school stuff, dance performances, not to mention more choir concerts, it's a miracle I'm still alive! I can't believe finals are already here! It seems like just yesterday that the first day of school began and I was ready for another year of...stress. Ha!
On a more positive note, I had the time of my life in Hawaii! With all the shopping, performing, beach-ing (is that even a word?), and sunshine, I REALLY want to go back right now. It was amazing that the meaning of most of the songs we sang truly hit me while we actually performed them on the USS Missouri. The feeling we had that day was amazingly unforgettable and I've got some great memories from there that I will cherish forever.
I really want to share my experience with all of you so here are a couple of the many pictures I took in Hawaii! One of them is of my hand holding a snail that I found, the other is a picture of us actually performing at Pearl Harbor, and the other two are just scenery!

Shamita--First, what an absolutely beautiful picture! If you have time, stop by to show me the rest of your Hawaii photos. Second, thanks for your comment on my blog. It's an honor to think that you're still taking the time to read it, and I always love to hear reflections from my students. Last, as much as I force my students to annotate, I understand what you're saying. One thing that I keep in the back of my mind is that books are not dead little stacks of paper and print but LIVE beings. Some like your comments in the margins, some like to be left alone. It depends on your relationship with the book. It's important to me that all of you know how to annotate in a way that benefits you. I hope this doesn't sound too ridiculously sentimental. Anyway, thanks for reading!
