Errr... I Dunno What To Call This

Teaching A Little Girl How To Use Scissors =D


Hey there! Anyways, a few days ago (on Halloween), I was running a special arts and craft station for a load of little kids (basically everybody in grade on at Begbie). My job was to teach little kids how to create some cool pumpkin things out of some orange paper, some black strips of paper, some green crayons, some scissors and some glue sticks. Anyways, about halfway through the station, a little girl comes up to the station and I ask her, "Do you want to make a pumpkin?". And she nods yes. She didn't really talk and I never did find out her name. Anyways, she was pretty little (all kids in grade one are little to me) and she was dressed up as a fairy. Back to the story though. So I told her some instructions and left her to start. About half a minute later, I realized that she wasn't really doing anything. So I asked her, "Do you know what to do?" and she nods no. So I explained that she was supposed to cut out the pre drawn pumpkin shaped thing on the piece of orange paper I handed out to everybody and then blah blah blah. Eventually, I realize that she didn't know how to use scissors and I asked her, "Do you know how to use scissors?". To my amazement, she nods no and then I take up the task of teaching her while my two other friends who were running the station too (Joshua and Brian) took over the station. So I asked her, "Do you know how to hold scissors?". She nods no (I asked so many questions =P). So I take hold of the scissors and teach her the right way to hold them and started cutting part of the pumpkin out for her. Pretty soon she got the hang of it and it was just felt... Really special that I got a chance to teach somebody something they would use for the rest of their life. It made me feel like I was a permanent part of their life. And that's probably why I felt great. Anyways, when she started cutting out the top part of the pumpkin, she held the scissors wrong and I taught her that she could turn the paper upside down in order to maintain the hand position. Anyways, the whole day was great and I had loads of fun running the station.

Errr... I Have To Go


I'm just reading back what I wrote in the last topic and I realized that I just gave you a wall of text to read... So I'm going to stop the post right here and just cram everything that I was about to say into a few sentences. The Minecraft server is going alright and the group has agreed to make the server so that it is a 1.7 server. Errr... That's it. Okay. I'll see you next post, but for now, thanks for reading, subscribe or do whatever.

RLS and ADHD


This topic was posted at like 9:23, but here goes. I've always thought about why I always move my leg. And when I mean move my leg, I mean like just like bouncing it up and down on a point. It's weird and when I ever get the urge to do it, I always do. I've tried to stop it, but it makes my legs feel uncomfortable. So my friend said I have ADHD, but I kind of think that I have ADHD and RLS. You can read about ADHD here and RLS here.
