Teaching is not as easy as it seems, and even those who are in college for education know they have a big road ahead of them. With the help of Pinterest, I found some memes that perfectly describe teaching.

1. To Those Future Teachers

Don't worry, teaching is the right path despite all the set backs coming your way!

2. Teaching In General

After you are a skilled teacher, you learn better techniques and methods...or you become more tolerant of your students.

3. The Class Outline

Despite popular belief, students this is very important and not just a bunch of crap.

4. Life Of A Teacher

We are masters at multi-tasking regular multi-tasking. Confusing? Just imagine actually living through that.

5. Students Who Procrastinate

Procrastination may seem like a good idea, but it hurts everyone. Especially the teacher and your grade.

6. Dealing With A Disruptive Classroom

Good luck to those teachers with those disruptive classrooms! I'll keep you in my thoughts.

7. Grading That Hasn't Been Done yet

Procrastinating happens for teachers too; it can be dangerous and can pile up quickly. "Wait, grades are due when?"

8. The Debate On Whether Or Not To Call In

This is also the point where you wish you had pre-made sub plans, but no, you had to hit next episode on Netflix instead.

9. Broken Copy Machines

Copiers are probably the most desired item in schools for teachers, and nine times out of 10, they are broken. Like, get it together machines, we have work to do.

10. Thoughts On State Mandates/Requirements

Oh, yes, Mr. State Official, please tell me how you know these new requirements and vast curriculum changes will change the educational system. Wait, you have no experience in a classroom? Hmm...

11. Allowing Kids To Hand In Late Work

I gave you one chance, and you decided to take it for granted. So, don't blame the teacher when your grade suffers.

12. Open Note Tests

The notes taken in class are to study from for the tests, not to totally disregard them and ignore them until test day.

13. Advocating Studying

Studying will help! You will need it in college and high school! Get used to the real world, honey.

14. PDA

You are not on the Titanic; you don't have to make out like it's your last moments on earth. Unless I see video camera filming a romantic-comedy, you should not be on top of each other in the hallway.

15. Lesson Plans Outside Of School

Hmm...why waste a beautiful weekend making lesson plans and not get paid for it? Yeah, I'm going to avoid all my responsibilities by online shopping and binge watching "New Girl."

16. Professional Development

The words "Professional Development" will haunt you to the end of your career, especially if you had to contribute involuntarily.

17. State Testing

New York state, where you at? Common Core, Regents exams, State Assessments and anything else the state tries to throw at you will three days notice.

18. Forgetting Writing Utensils

There are literally pencils and pens everywhere. While you were busy sucking your significant other's face like it was the end of time, you could have been asking them to borrow a pen.

19. Students Actually Using What You Taught Them

Despite the humor behind this article, student achievement is the best gift a teacher could get. Well, besides summer vacation.

I've been super busy lately with school work, studying, etc. Besides the fact that I do nothing but AP chemistry and AP economics, I constantly think of stupid questions that are almost impossible to answer. So, maybe you could answer them for me, and if not then we can both wonder what the answers to these 15 questions could be.

To My Loving Boyfriend,

  • Thank you for all that you do for me
  • Thank you for working through disagreements with me
  • Thank you for always supporting me
  • I appreciate you more than words can express
  • You have helped me grow and become a better person
  • I can't wait to see where life takes us next
  • I promise to cherish every moment with you
  • Thank you for being my best friend and confidante
  • I love you and everything you do

To start off, here's something I don't say nearly enough: thank you. Thank you, thank you, thank you from the bottom of my heart. You do so much for me that I can't even put into words how much I appreciate everything you do - and have done - for me over the course of our relationship so far. While every couple has their fair share of tiffs and disagreements, thank you for getting through all of them with me and making us a better couple at the other end. With any argument, we don't just throw in the towel and say we're done, but we work towards a solution that puts us in a greater place each day. Thank you for always working with me and never giving up on us.

Around the town, there are some just some landmarks and places that only the people of Hauppauge will ever understand the importance or even the annoyance of.
