Gigantic ups to my Winston crew for earning our uniforms today! This is a huge accomplishment in the City Year process, and we rocked it. Our chant to "All of the Lights" was killer, so much so that I think there is a good chance that we'll get to perform it on Opening Day, which would be fantastic. We got our Tims, red vest, and dress pants and shirts. We are still waiting for more pieces to arrive, including the backpack (which I'm really excited for) and our bombers. But still, we put in hours of work and it showed. I couldn't be more proud of Matt, Cara, Emilia, Rashad, Kim, Robbie, Trey, Sydney, Sheri, and Paiyal!
Earlier today we shadowed more classes which is starting to get beat. I think everyone has a pretty good idea of which class the want/would be most successful in, so now it's a little drag. I was in 4th grade, and those little kids are rowdy. I had one kid talk back to me for half an hour after I stopped acknowledging him before he finally picked up pencil shavings that he spilled and then right after lunch, this little dude speared another kid. I was like "dude, really!?" I told him if that happens again, he'll have to deal with me. Oh and I'm in charge of the discipline for my team as well. I like intimidating kids who have never been stood up to before.
Yesterday was a throw away day. The school was closed due to the hurricane. (I walked through the wind and rain on Saturday night, always a good time!)
Tomorrow I have interviews for two Ambassador Programs and I'll let you know more about them once I receive a decision on them, but apparently I have a good chance at both that I'm applying for.
Hope all is well in Pittsburgh, Marietta, and wherever else you may be reading this from. Know that I'm having a great time here and couldn't be happier with my decision!
