OH how I love my job, however today was such an emotional and great day at work that I realize how worth my job truly is. I work for and after school club and work with third graders. I have this kid who is the toughest kid I know, he's a bully and mean to the other kids at times but I know he means well he's got the biggest heart when he's not being rude to others and he only trusts me and a few other of the teachers there...well today he got in trouble by one of the other teachers and he had to fill out an improvement plan where there parents have to sign it...and he was so mad and came to me and was saying how he wish he could die before taking this home, and i go no its ok...and he just broke down crying i mean just fear and dread in his eyes and crying but he was trying to hide it and it pained me he looked at me with tears down his face and said "please Miss Jamie don't make me take this home I will be in SO much trouble," i took that stupid improvement plan and threw it away and told him we'll figure out something else for a consequence...and I went in the bathroom and cried a bit...those kids have such a rough life it sickens me and breaks my heart.
This boy today who I thought didn't like me wrote me a letter it was so sweet and he is such an amazing kid I love him and it made me feel so good. Three of my girls today who are just so accident prone came up to me and nestled up to me and the other two just cuddled up to me also…it was the sweetest thing. Someone said we looked just like a picture.
These kids melt my heart and I’m way too attached to them but I can’t help it! They all have something so special inside of them and it breaks my heart to see the type of homes they are in and the type of environment they are being brought up in. I know they will have such a hard life and it makes me so heartbroken…I can only pray and hope that they will do and be ok in life and that I am making a difference right now. I love my job so much and wouldn’t trade it for the world! I love my kids.

LIfe of a Hustler....
So...remember that time I was so excited to start a blog and I was so excited to keep up with it and post all my crazy adventures? Yeah..I don't remember that either. haha! So here we go again..
Today was a great day. Woke up pretty early, well early for me, went to school, went to work, came home had some cereal for dinner. And as I ate my cereal I thought to myself, I'm so my mother! She loves cereal for dinner, and it made me smile cause I love my mother and love when I do things just like her. :)
So on Mondays and Wednesdays I have my billiards class, and though I may have billiard blood in me thanks to my dear sweet Great Grandma Pearl Lim who is amazing at Billiards, I somehow did not inherit that blood. HOwever, we are having what's called a 9-ball tournament...goal of it all you hit from lowest to highest ball on the table, but if you hit the 9 in you win. You must win 3 games at your table, at each table there is 2-3 people you play against...well...somehow by pure, complete, and total luck I have won each day! hahaha I have no clue how it is even possible that I have won. I keep hurting the boy's man pride in my class when I win. haha I have now been given a new name in class, "Hustler" yep, so I may have not inherited the billiards gene but I sure inherited some good luck! Let's hope next Monday I can keep it up...if not its still fun! :)
So I'm loving all my classes this semester...except for Biology..but I'm forcing myself to love it. I am taking 2 English classes that I LOVE!!! OH my, my professor is the same for both of them and I love him! He makes me excited to be a teacher! School is great, I get to see lots of my friends on campus, pretty sure there's not a day that I don't see someone and stop to say hi, even if its going to make me a couple minutes late. I'm ready for this week to be over...2 test Thursday an Friday and then I have a fun filled weekend ahead. I am taking three of my best friends Kristen, Jami Heward, and Mckenzie Mortenson home with me this weekend. Jame and Kenz haven't been home with me so it should be fun. We are going to Yellostone Saturday for a quick and fun road trip. It'll be a good one.
Anyways...that's about it for now. :) Life is amazing as always! :)

*Yep*
Yep,
The infamous Jamie Gale Bonney decided to start blog! Bahaha yep it shall mostly consist of Kristen and my many adventures. Just when you thought you had, had enough of us....you hadn't! Hahaha. So...the new blog will most likely be beyond random but ever so great. And I'm sure there will be lots of stuff you probably won't find funny...and you'll think to yourself, "Yeah Kristen and Jamie are funny...when you actually know what they're talking about." or "I love inside jokes, I'd love to be part of one someday." But, no worries we understand, not everyone can understand us. Not quite sure if that's a good thing, or a bad thing? haha anyways so here it goes to my try to our blog.
So we were trying to decide on a name, it had to be one our our Jamie and Kristen quotes or a quote from a favorite movie. As I was looking on our page of quotes I found this and didn't remember when Kristen had said it but I could not help but laugh,

oh waite...i think thats your arm forming into the side of my chest cavity...yep thats it i feel the tickle...dude i think your bed is caving in and swollowing you up into a dark, blanket abiss...as your screams of "help me help me...I love you!" fill the air, you start to fight back with all your might, mind and strength (yeah i just quoted scripture to you), your teeth nashing and fingers clawing! You accidentally swipe me down the neck like a furocious tigerous ( are you sure you werent owned by mike tyson in a previous life?) as the bed swallows you up and you are gone i will say to my self (oh and i will be sure to say this at your funeral when a certain someone stands up in the middle of the service and yells "SHE WAS A HORE!") i will back you up and yell back "HEY SHE WAS A NICE LADY!"
I read this out loud to Kris and asks if she remembered when she said that. She laughed and laughed and says, "Man I am funny." hahaha oh good times good times. Well this bout all I've got as of right now. If you are completely lost...um..I'm sorry? You're cute?
