F5

the friday five

1. Are you going to school this year? No, I have 2 more years until all three of my kids will be in school, at that time I plan to start taking some classes or to get certified as a dog groomer.

2. If yes, where are you going (high school, college, etc.)? If no, when did you graduate? I graduated High School in 1985. Since then I have gone to college 3 times and only managed to finish one semester of classes.

3. What are/were your favorite school subjects? Don't know if I had any favorites. I loved any performing arts classes and did well in Math and Science. I'm more interested in writing and literature now.

4. What are/were your least favorite school subjects? P.E. - I deplored it. I almost didn't graduate High School simply because I never attended my P.E. class. Next to that it was never the subjects it was the teachers. I only had 3 teachers in 4 years of high school I respected or liked.

5. Have you ever had a favorite teacher? Why was he/she a favorite? Looking back on all my teachers the one that stands out the most is Ms. Guerney my art then drama teacher. She was an amazing talent and was the first teacher to ever treat me like she knew there was more to me than it might have appeared. I was quite hurt by the fact that when her contract wasn't renewed she never contacted me again. I always thought she would be there. But, I don;t think she ever saw herself as a teacher. She was an artist sharing her talents with young people.
