I went to visit my Christopher/Davis teachers today with Joseph and David! Pretty nostalgic, if I said so myself!
We walked into Christopher’s teacher’s lounge to visit all the teachers during lunch. NEEDLESS TO SAY, WE WERE ECSTATIC. Mainly because as an elementary student, the teacher’s lounge was a sacred&off-limits place.
Visiting the library was probably one of the biggest indicators that we’ve grown, both physically and mentally. I remember the library used to seem so huge, and the bookshelves were taller than me! Now, I can basically rest my arms and head on the top of the bookshelf! And Mrs. Gray, the librarian, looked the same as ever! She was still the sweet librarian that read books to us all the time! :>
We also visited Mrs. James (despite the last name, she’s asian)! It’s weird to think that she teaches kindergarten now, instead of 2nd grade. I remotely remember a day where my mom and I were talking to her, and my mom disclosed the fact that I thought she looked like this pretty Korean actress.. I was so embarrassed (even if I was only an eight or nine years old, so embarrassed that she found out..). She’s a wonderful person though! Plus, without her, Joseph probably wouldn’t have been in the class of 2013, but the class of 2014!
We also came across Mr. I and Mrs. Mabanag’s classes practicing for the upcoming luau next Thursday at 7:00PM! I actually still have my luau video, if anyone wants to see it.. It’s like two hours long though, so I don’t know if anyone would want to see it.. I think I’ve watched it at least three or four times in the past six to seven years? It’s just something I like to rewatch when I get nostalgic!
After a while, we just decided to go visit some Davis teachers… but we didn’t really feel like getting arrested for hanging around campus during school hours so we ended up stopping by PE to watch PE teachers vs. students in a relay and then coming back after school got out. But duuuuuuuuuuude.. the new black female PE teacher was fast! SUPER FAST. We didn’t really get to visit anyone after though… Joseph got to talk to Mr. Morgan and David got to talk to Mr. Coleman! I got to talk to Mrs. Cicantelli again, haha! It’s funny how I didn’t really spend that much time in her class (compared to McCormack), but I feel like she’s the easiest to talk to! I think I’ve already mentioned this, but her son is also a senior at Lincoln… AND HE PLAYS V2 DOUBLES IN BADMINTON? How did I not see him? -__- She says that he might quit next year though because he doesn’t want to take up V1… Well, I’ll probably end up visiting her again sometime during the beginning of the school year!
But anyways, it felt so odd telling all my teachers that I was an incoming senior. All of them made comments about time flying by so quickly! And it’s true! It feels like just a year ago I was an elementary school student, just a month ago I was a middle school student, just a week ago I was standing at the black gates of Oak Grove as a freshman, and just yesterday, I was a junior! Even if time flies by fast, let’s see what the next few days, weeks, months, and years bring me!
LET’S GOOOOOOO!
