Hands down, this has been my best life year- year 29. Thank you, Ellie Meza. For modeling the importance of impromptu fun. I have faith that anyone can experience their best life year if they act on these simple suggestions:. Celebrating each day of your birthday month. Eating cake for dinner. Riding roller coasters midweek. Skipping to work hand in hand with a friend. Taking afternoon naps to stay up even later at night. Making Mondays your favorite day of the week. Swinging when you pass a playground.

I was a skeptical sucker. Spending the equivalent of a one way flight to another continent on algae detox pills. Was I nuts? I would like to blame this on the fact that I was floating in the middle of the Pacific Ocean. FOR 2 DAYS! Optimistic suckers we were. Here is my attempt at regaining dignity for such a silly purchase. So I sit here researching reasons for my 4 weeks of insomnia. It is now crystal clear. I realize that my odd bodily behaviors and sleep patterns are not to be blamed on cultu...Now a...

The bitter cold grip of my first Korean winter has come to an end. Beautiful colors are literally sprouting before my eyes- purple, yellow, white, and pink can be seen everywhere!

March Shanghai, China- work and play. Fermented Tofu- of course we ate it. My gracious student who guided us around her home city. Highlight...

http://keffinger.blogspot.com/2012/06/awesome-world-of-middle-school.html
Awesome World of Middle School. After 7 years of being cushioned in the middle I am no closer to being an adult than my students are. The only difference is, I no longer try to act up to my given age. I have humbly. Accepted my 14-year-old maturity level which is 4 years away from adulthood. In addition to summer vacations, this is another awesome gift from the school calendar year- time that. Regenerates year after year. Thanks to my awesome roommate, another out of the closet 13 year old. You must be r...
