Snow Frisbee

Yesterday I played a game of Ultimate Frisbee --tackle style in the 10 inches of snow that we got up here. I think I am better when we play in the snow. And actually, it makes sense--I'm not afraid of the lay out process because there is something soft and pillowy there to catch me. All in all, it was a good time.
I got to see Dunkin while we were playing though. It was so good to see him. I didn't know he was going to be in town, so the surprise was excellent. We sat in the snow for a bit and chatted about his TFA experience thus far. He seems to be in a completely different world. Well, he IS in a completely different world, I guess. But it's odd--when he's bad, it doesn't seem like it's actually happening. I'm not sure if this happens with all of my friends that move away and then come back to visit or what, but it's an odd little feeling. But we got to talk about the difficulty of being a friend to students and a figure of authority, which was interesting because it's something that I've been thinking about also with tutoring. It's a hard line to walk and very often, I don't know which side to default to. But I think, more often than not, I want to drop on the authority side, which is good to know if I get into TFA. (I really should be working on that essay instead of writing this.)


Whoops...I had to leave to go to Christi's graduation dinner and forgot about this so I'll just throw this up now and come back to another post later.
