Hi, my name is Theresa and I’m addicted to caffeine. It’s been an on and off addiction I have had for a while now. I decided that I would give up caffeine yesterday. I just felt like I was relying on it every single day! If I couldn't get it I felt cruddy and I just didn’t want to feel that way just because I couldn't get my hands on some caffeine. So I decided to try life without it for a little bit and just see how it goes. So far I had an insane headache yesterday and a moderate headache today. I am hoping that means that by tomorrow this whole headache business will be a thing of the past and I can go on to live a nice caffeine free life. I did some research about the pros and cons of caffeine consumption. Really, most people say in moderation, it’s okay for you. Some people say it’s one of the worst things you can do to your body. Whatever, the point is that I am going to try to just quit it for now. Will I pick it up again? Maybe. I don’t really want to be one of those people who can’t function in the morning without my cup of coffee. Well, I don’t drink coffee, but if you insert “diet pop” into all those “gotta have my coffee” statements, that’s pretty much me! I will say this, so far today I feel far less focused and I have been hungry ALL DAY! I’m none too thrilled with the idea of giving up my diet pop if I have to gain 30 lbs to do it! Well, my head hurts again. I’m getting close to giving up on this dream. One moment at a time. We’ll see how it goes!

Drama, drama and more DRAMA!
Drama, drama and more drama! Wow. So, can I just say I do NOT miss being a teenage girl. Working with them daily reminds me how greatful I am that I am in a loving marriage that does not revolve around jealously or bitterness. It just boggles my mind how much drama goes on with these young girls and their relationships. It makes me wish that when we were sleeping God would sneak into our dreams and show us glimpses of our futures, and then they could see that this one event in life was not the "be all end all." I feel badly for the guys that walk into some of this stuff unknowinly, but I feel some pretty huge amounts of anger for the guys that sit back and enjoy watching these girls fight over them(some of them litereally fighting)! Lord, I pray for these young people! I am sure their were adults who felt the same looking at my age group back when we were teenagers too. I think that I was pretty lucky to avoid a lot of that when I was younger. I didn't really "date" in high school. I had lots of other drama and such. Of course I still liked boys who didn't like me, but I try to "steal" any "taken" guys. I guess in some aspects I was lucky, even if I didn't think so at the time.

Dear Students
Dear Young Lady that is wearing a shirt that VERY low cut,
The young men that are giving you a ton of attention because of your low cut shirt, are NOT the young men you probably are trying to get the attention of, nor are they actually giving you positive attention(contrary to what you might believe).
Love, A concerned Teacher
Dear Young Man who is wearing skinny jeans that are a size better suited to a 2nd grade girl,
I guess I missed the fashion boat on this one because I can not ponder how you looked in the mirror today and thought that this was a good look on you! Furthermore, those jeans are so tight, I am actually able to see more things on your body than should be shared.
Love, A concerned(and confused) Teacher.
