I plan on getting into teaching in the future. I want to go to Japan and teach all the high school kiddies there how to speak english. Right now I teach 3 Japanese guys english (18, 21, and 28 yrs. old). It's pretty fun, except when you have to spend 15 minutes on trying to teach them how to say "really" instead of "lealee".

My brother just graduated with is elementary education degree. He's worked at summer camps since he was old enough to work.



Now he moved to Minnesota to live with some girl he met over the internet, and he's working for her family changing locks on repo'd houses or some ****.

I wanted to teach something like marching band. But you have to have a degree and I lack that right now. I guess being a All-Region player your freshman year wasn't enough. Almost made state my sophomore year but then I got out.

I don't work full time. I only work camps. Basically before school actually starts they practice and I teach then. I was in all-state all through middle school and high school, and I also went to National Honor Band. I was pretty damn good in my day, but now I don't have the time to practice or keep up the trade so I teach marching. Which is cool cause I can still get involved, and I can concentrate on woodwinds in sectionals and actually get them to sound good. And Dramon Killer, hey as a part time job making 600-700 a week for going and getting a free tan, and free food, and yelling at some kids seems like a pretty good deal to me.

Hehe...thats some crazy stuff. My junior year one of our teachers was messing with some chemicals that were left in corroded containers and when they fell out it started a huge fire. I was in the building when it happend. the fire department was their forever and the building stunk for a month. Good Luck!

So your a woodwind player? Sorry to hear that I was a big bad trumpet player! But like you I think I have lost my touch. I thought it was cool because one of my students told me that when he got to the 6th grade he wanted to be in band and play the trumpet or drums. It bought tears to my eyes
