Teachers actually make a fair amount of money... And they get lotsa vacation time.

I remember the Outsiders.

Oh, and nevermind what I said earlier, school actually starts on the 2nd for me.

And weekends off, though I suppose that's offset by the amount of work done outside of school.

Some teachers say that they only became teachers because they supposedly LOVE working with kids...I think that only works for elementary school. -_-

And they never get vacations off if they procrastinate on grading their student's papers...my English teacher had that problem so many times. :P
Ah, poor him. He was a nice guy though.

The only time he was late with ours was when he broke his thumb.
All the papers were grades with a big highlighter :P

My dad's parents were both teachers, so they would rent a sailboat on the Great Lakes all summer. Sounded like fun ;)

Aw that sucks. I guess you live somewhere near the southeast coast of the US? (There's a tropical storm there right now, so if that's what you were talking about...)

Aw, geez, I wonder if graphing calculators are on sale in Office Depot right now...

Oh, that's cool! Seemed like it was raining hard when I was watching the local news though. (Poor reporter guy...)

I changed my mind; it's raining now... but not hard at all. I don't go outside a lot when it's threatening to pour... (the clouds are pretty ominous, at least)

But at least I know I won't get bored at school.
