Dear Diary

Dear Diary, Today I visited the museum
Here I am sitting in the Geology museum. Waiting for my students to show up. Inside there are many minerals, but few rocks. Minerals are the ingredients of rocks. Examples include mica, quartz, pyrite, gold, etc. Rocks are mixtures of minerals. Examples of these include granite, sandstone, and basalt.But you already knew this. You might be asking yourself, why am I telling you this? For one blatant reason: I have nothing else to do. I've been all over this museum. I've seen the mastadon bones. I've marvelled at the glowing minerals. At this point: yawn. So I am bored.Outside of the Geology museum are about 50 kids. There has been one field trip after another today, which is ok. I remember when I was a kid -- I loved this sort of thing. Anything to get out of the classroom. As I write, the kids are multiplying. Now there are roughly 100 our so. The chatter is getting loud. The teachers are getting stressed ..... yesterday was nothing new. I'm just chilled out at home and what's ever.........and tomorrow I will go to a swimmingpool to eat chocolate.
