Well I almost feel off the bandwagon here, I took a little break from stuff and it was almost too much. I missed a few assignments but hopefully I'll be OK. My brother finally moved in with me into this bedroom I'm renting, and that's been pretty good. He's quite the help when I have a technology question, and it makes me feel a lot better when he can't figure it out either. Like when my printer wouldn't work for Trish's final project and just had to be re-installed.
I've been trying to volunteer with the Conc Teacher Corps at Hacienda with middle schoolers, but I think I've only successfully been there twice so far since Lynn came into to our first class and presented. It took a long while for the background check to clear, twice I've showed up and they were closed, and I skipped once to work on the final project. It's a fairly chaotic group, more like an after school program than tutoring. The kids don't really want to work on stuff, just talk and do their MySpace. I don't really feel it's my place to crack the whip, especially as I'm an unfamilar white male and they are mostly Latina middle schoolers. Not really sure how to procede, but I'll give it through Christmas at least to see if anything breaks.
