I'm been guilted into updating!
Working with kids can be endlessly frustrating, but it also has its amusing moments. Such as when your camper doesn't know your name, so he refers to you as "tall and brown-skinned." Or another kid just calls you, "black man." Or when yet another child points at you and shouts, "You want your freedom!"
Since all these things are sort of legit in context, and all technically true, I can't really get mad. Just feel a little disquieted about how these children are learning their history and social studies.
I got two totally sweet new pairs of sneakers, after finally getting my paycheck - one's a pair of white low-top converse (not chuck taylors, but some Pro Dirty SZs) with black pinstripes, and the other's a pair of black AF1s with green tweed and pink stripe/laces. Pictures will ensue. God I love money.
