When life gives you lemons, throw a rager...

    Ahhhh, here I go again...procrastinating on my school work. Whatever, Statistics are overrated anyways.

      One of the most heart breaking part of my job is when my students talk about not having any friends. Some of the kids I work with seem to be oblivious to the notion of  "friends" or "socializing" and would much rather read a book, watch TV, or play video games without having the annoyance of somebody actually talking to them...

To be honest, I feel like that most of the time too. Hey, maybe that's why I get along with my students so well.

Anywho, where was I ? Oh yes, "Friends."

Some of the kids I work with could care less about socializing, but others seem to feel quite lonely :(

      I was saddened the other day when talking to one of my students about his birthday. He told me that he spent his birthday with his family because he didn't have any friends to invite to his birthday party. I reminded him that he could always invite the boys from the social group we attend.

He replied with:

      "Well, I think that would be a bit of a crazy party. Maybe we would be PARTY ANIMALS and could swing from chandeliers! I think we might even destroy someones LUXURY HOME!...I think it would be a better idea if they just dropped the gifts off in the foyer and left."




  Good point...
