Her laugh, that cute snort she makes in the middle of a laugh and the way she ...

Headphones

Cara reached for her headphones worth an eager expression. She had been waiting all day to be able to lose herself in the music. Last year, in tenth grade, the teachers allowed students to listen to music, but the new principal had outlawed the popular rule.

From the first chord, Cara found herself smiling as the noise engulfed her senses. The power that the music had over the girl was aston...

Untitled

Iā€™d like to say that I was eager to start the new semester, but the truth is that there is always a lot of trepidation that surrounds new beginnings. Even when one is a veteran teacher (and I was getting close to that point now) there is a cloud of anxiety that engulfs the individual.
