So, today is 12/12/12. This morning, one of my students placed this note to me, folded neatly on my keyboard. When I read it, it made my day. This is why I love my job. This is why I do my job! I do not need to go into detail about this particular student, his background, hardships, or how far he has come this year. I do not need to acknowledge the fact that I had forgotten it was 12/12/12 when I am really quirky when it comes to dates. I think this student's words, and the concise manner in which he wrote, speaks for itself. And, and on this 12/12/12, a day when we are supposed to be 'doing' something new, I am dusting off my old blog and using it again, as an avenue to continue 'rambling' on...Happy 12/12/12!
His words: Today is the last day for a thousand years it will be 12/12/12. I write how I think this historical day will be. I hope to see a solar eclipse and for it to snow.
For you, Mrs. Packwood
