OKAY I have missed counseling 3 times in a row and I really need to process some stuff so this is me celebrating some TEACHING WINS as of late because things have been really hard!

—More writing is happening! More revisions of writing are happening. The gap between student writing being automatically boring, processed, disconnected from any actually thought and interesting, thoughtful writing—writing as a way OF thinking and sorting through thoughts in a logical way—is closing. Or at least narrowing.

—Classroom procedures are in place and I have to do very little to enforce them. There is (generally speaking) order in each classroom and the students’ habits, not my nagging, keep them in place.

—I am filling class time better and more effectively. There’s more variety in the structure of each class but also the time is just used better. They work bell to bell. In-between spaces are filled with review, oral work, discussions.

—Day to day work with the written text is becoming more specific. Tasks have been created in connection with a work that grew organically out of my teaching of them. There are more of these as a way to keep students paying attention to the reading/note taking. But the broad strokes, the chances to pause and discuss and see the bigger picture, are still happening. I’m starting to see the way the two layers and approaches work together to lift most of the students into an understanding of the story.

—There is still room for fun. Both in the specific sense—there are a few more games, review opportunities, creative exercises and chances to explore and engage with the text in a fun, non-academic way than there where before —but also in the very specific Maria way where I let my passion and knowledge for the work really show and carry them up on a wave, so to speak. This keeps the students interested, intrigued, and anxious not to miss one of the moments of fun.

—I feel like I’m reaching a more complete approach that tackles the basic skills of all my classes—reading, interpreting, discussing, writing—more evenly. Their opportunities to do all of those things is better balanced and woven together than it has been. The opportunity to practice each thing recurs and recurs again so that their sense of how to actually DO a thing—at least by my measurement of it—is improving.

—The specific qualities that I want to bring to each class are growing more distinct. My 8th graders vocabularies are expanding as is their grammar. My sophomores are establishing surer connections with outside scholarly voices on each of the texts we read which help them jumpstart actual independent thinking and interpreting. And my seniors are given the chance to connect the readings to their own lives and most importantly current concerns more than they used to.

I think that’s it :))))

People I'd like to get to know better

THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR TAGGING ME @shamblespirate I AM SMOOCHING YOU SO HARD

Last song: Tití Me Preguntó by Bad Bunny

I don’t really have an explanation for this song other than it gets me hyped the fuck up and Bad Bunny really just is one of my fav Spanish speaking artists and idk with both him and I being Puerto Rican I just have this sense of pride ya know SKSMDM OKAY ENOUGH OF THAT

Favorite color: light blues

Any shade of light blue! It can be pastel, baby blue, etc etc like blue has me in a chokeholdddddd

Last Movie: Words Bubble Up Like Soda Pop

MY BOYFRIEND SHOWED ME THIS MOVIE AND OH MY GOD IT IS SO CUTE???? Im a sucker for cute shit and this had me *sobbing* 100/10 please go watch it

Sweet/Spicy/Savoury: Savory

Oh this is tough….. I was teetering between spicy and savory but ultimately landed on savory cause I’m just baby when it comes to spice 😭 like I like it when my food has a kick to it but I’ll always love myself a good steak with some A1 sauce or some tacos from this good taco shop down the street like I can live without spicy but I can’t live without savory

Relationship Status: Taken!

I’ve been in this relationship for over 3 years!! High school sweethearts 🥰 I actually knew him for around 6+ years and I’ve been in love with him since the beginning and he has been in love with me too but we haven’t done anything about it till senior year 😭 truly a mutual pining slow burn 🤭fun fact! Our anniversary is the same day as Laws Birthday

Last thing I googled: cenote

I booked a cruise for my birthday and I was looking up excursions and there was one where it was like cave and cenote diving and I didn’t know what it was so I looked it up! It’s basically like a sinkhole filled with water I might just have to do that 👀👀

Current Obsession: Bugsnax

THIS IS SUCH A CUTE VIDEO GAME AND IVE BEEN PLAYING IT NONSTOP FOR THE PAST WEEK I think everyone should be required to play this game at one point in their lives

THERE'S NOTHING LIKE YOU & I a Good Omens season 2 playlist

Quiet, gentle, romantic, and a little bit devastating – roughly in story order. For being lonely together across 6,000 years and aching for the freedom to love.

On Spotify Here

[minigemdoodles]

They're finished! I spent so much time making them when I should've been doing other things but it was so worth it.

I listened a lot to the good omens audiobook while I worked on them and I didn't realise just how long it had been since I last read the book. It was a good experience

ANOTHER ONE 👻 w madney :)

👻 - ghost stories / haunted house

this is so so silly bc at first i was like i have no ideas for this prompt head empty. and then i wrote 2.3k words in one day LOLLL

send a halloween prompt!

“It’s fine.” 

It is. Maddie’s fine with it. She’s great! She’s chill. Maddie’s cool. 

“Is it, though?” Buck asks. 

Yeah. “Yeah!” Maddie’s voice pitches up in a way that might suggest that she’s totally not fine. Which would be a problem, if she wasn’t fine. But she’s fine. “I’m cool.” 

“Maddie.”

“What? Do you not think I’m cool?” The needle in her hand wriggles free from her grasp, as if afraid of what she’ll do if he says no. 

“Hey. Look.” 

So she does. Maddie looks up from her sewing to look at her brother. His hands are in the air, in surrender. 

“You know I’m on your side right? Always. United front, remember?”

Maddie narrows her eyes. “Hmm. Continue.”

Hiiiii, I’m posting chapter 4 again because chapter 5 is coming very soon (using the long Eastern weekend for that yay) ^^

Details are below but it’s basically my idea of what season 3 could be, with a depressed Crowley and a frustrated Aziraphale who have to come together at some point (perhaps now hehe). Lots of Muriel, and other familiar faces. Some gender talk, it’s important to me. Some flashbacks (1941 shhhhh). Hopefully epic (especially starting chapter 4) but also funny, sweet and beautiful. 

Thanks for reading and if you ever like it, share etc.! :)

hi nina!! 4 and 16 for the writing asks? <3

Hi Tina!

4. A story idea you haven't written yet

laslkdjgkasdlg technically already answered it BUT i have many so fret not! Okay so another (slightly simpler one than that) would be the very basic best friends to lovers au i once thought of when listening to Lunar Years by Maisie Peters one too many times.

Basically, Wille and Simon are exes-turned-best friends. They dated for like one summer, but realized that for one reason or another they just didn't work like that, and that they're better off as friends. They'll always love and care for each other, and it shows. They tease, they fake flirt and banter. sometimes they got mistaken for a couple and have a good laugh before they correct the person. And they're both fine with it, most of the time. Then one day, Simon introduces Wille to his new boyfriend....... and maybe Wille's not so fine with it after all. (again i know this is very basic and I'm still fleshing it out to see what would make it somewhat original haha but yeah)

16. Favorite place to write

My bed or my couch! It's killing on my wrists but I truly love writing there more than at my desk

Send me fic writer asks!

[silly-stage-au]

Aja, I can't imagine any kind of pain you're going through right now, I know it's basically impossible for me to hug you, but if I could, I'd give you the biggest hug ever. Nina would be so happy for you to see that you survived.
