Two days ago (Tuesday 11/17) I met with the little boy I will be tutoring for the next weeks. I was so excited! he is the first child I have tutored for School on Wheels (or um, ever, excluding my little sisters :-p). I wanted to bake him cookies and I tried, bless my heart, I TRIED! But um.... I don't really know how to bake cookies and never had before.... I overslept Tuesday and woke up late and tried baking cookies but they didn't come out good >_< so i ended up buying a dozen donuts from a little store 2 blocks away from my house.
I had been avoiding that donut shop because a few years ago I went there with my grandmother and her boyfriend, who is very grumpy. Idk, I think the cashier gave him an attitude or he took it as an attitude or they had a disagreement or SOMETHING but after we ordered our food he was so pissed off at her that he wanted us to just leave and we did, without paying (you are supposed to pay after you eat)
but the lady had already started making our food. My grandma left her diet coke so she went back to get it and she said the lady begged her to come back and said that her boss was going to be mad at her for having prepared foood that no one was going to eat. much less pay for. After that U was too embarrased to go back... Until Tuesday, when it was almost time for my tutoring appointment for School on Wheels.
The little boy liked the donuts so :-)
The little boy was adorable. he tried tricking me a few times. I helped him with his homework and after we were done I asked him about a little note in front of his homework which basically stated in print he had read his book three times and had three spaces for sigantures. He said "oh, we're done, I just have to write the title of that book and you just have to sign there." And I was like "nooo, you have to read it" and he was like "ohhh, I was trying to trick you." Then he looked at the front page for a few seconds then the last page and then he said "okay, I'm done". LOL Oh, and after he did read all of it outloud, like he was supposed to, I signed on the first space. Then he said "oh, you're supposed to sign in those 2 spaces, too." Ofc, he was trying to trick me again. You only sign per each time he reads the book :-p
And he wanted to go to the playground afterwards but from what I recall in the training we aren't allowed to take them out, even if it's to a park in front of the street, without first aqiring written permission. So I told him I couldn't but to ask his mommy instead.
ALSO.... something unexpected. The tutor coordinated was kind of cute ^_^
I felt kind of bad because this lady (the... manager... of the palce where I was tutoring) was thanking me for doing such a great job, to which I replied 'I haven't even started' and she said it was great to see young people get invovled and she was glad for the program, School on Wheels. She was jsut really nice and kept complimenting me but Idk... I find it funny when I get complimented by adults that way.... like when they are like "thank you so much, you're so wodnerful, it's so nice to see people like you involved...." Anyways, then he thanked the tutor coordinated and started saing how wodnerful he was and I couldn't hold my laughter so I giggled but TC looked so serious and he was like "thank you, you're such a nice person, you're very sweet." i felt like an arse. I wanted to laugh when she was thanking me. I didn't mean anything bad by it.... it was just my reaction.
Anyways.... I am seeing my little boy again next week :-)
And the week after that.... and after that.... Ahhh! I have to remember to call his school and speak to his teacher and ask about his grades.
Yesterday (Wednesday) I went out to the movies with my bff from middle school, Jay. It was fun ^_^ Qe saw A Chrismas Carol (<3 Jim Carrey <3) and it was really cute. Although the part where Mister Scrooge is visited by the ghost of Chrismas past is kind of scary :-/
Ohhhh and ebfore we went to the movies we did some prank calls and it was hella funny ^_^ All I can say is this.... a man whore is going to show up to a random address (2215 N. Huntington if I rememebr correctly) with a pack of condoms and soda expecting to have the smex with some strange girl he doesn't even know or he thinks he doesn't remember. Anyways, AFTER the movies we had popusas (and I had a taco, lol). And that was it.
Ohhh, we took some pics on our cell phones. I may put one up =)
I <3>_>
Aaaanyways.... ohhhh! today I went driving with my uncle. And that's pretty much everything worth mentioning for now :-)
I must go to class now, my dears, but I shall be back...
-Why won't you believe that i am a cat? :-(
