It's the third day since and still fresh in mind! July 28. Thursday morning. No class. Yes! I can go somewhere and unwind. Ring! Ring! The phone goes for several times before I answered it.
"Hello?"
"Hey bro could you come its my birthday?"
Without hesitation, "Yeah, what time?"
"Now!"
I spent great deal of time at the party and its was 11pm, my heart was beating fast as I rested on the hammock. I began to wonder why. Then I start reviewing my calendar. "Oh shoot! My transactional reading assignment deadline!"
I rushed and sped home to continue my adjourned task. "Click, click, click!" the computer went like the rain outside as it poured in the rusted roofing. Finally an output and it was 3am!
"Dad are you going to sleep?
"Coming.. "
"Lately you've been always staying up late.."
"Just a second love, I was supposed to send this last night before 12pm and it is late for submission already."
I sent for review.
...
I checked my Gmail: Extension for Deadline! YES!
POEM? REFLECTION? LITERATURE?
Extensions are great, and taking a break every once in a while is great. We only have one more week left...YAY!
ReplyDeleteLOL! Robito, it sounds like your luck and my luck are similar! But at least now you can rest and relax unlike me who still has to finish. Good job Robito! :)
ReplyDeleteWasn't that a pleasant surprise!
ReplyDeleteThat's funny Robito! Lucky, sounds like you were done ahead of schedule! I'm nearing the end of my writing and even though I learned a lot about Ms. Rosenblatt's theory, I am glad I'm not a Language Arts teacher!!! Not to say I would not implement some of the strategies of becoming an "aesthetic" reader, b/c I truly like the idea, but for PE and Health, I might be encouraging in different ways :)
ReplyDeleteExtremely detailed Doc, I feel the same way when it comes to the assignments. I am sure that you did great on your paper. We are almost there sir.
