It's Sunday and time to decorate my classroom before tomorrow.I can't wait to meet my new classmates.I decided on a comfy outfit  today , a grey hoodie with grey sweatpants,messy bun and flip flops with strawberry prints.I pick up my box with all my old decorations and head to the school.I don't know with classroom is mine ,but I assume it is the one that is empty.I try two open the door ,but it won't budge.I slip my left flip flop off ,steady my weight on my right leg and kick the door open with my left foot. Yes, I did check if the door was locked before I did my little trick ,and yes ,ther door was unlocked. My little trick caused a little damage control. I side of the doors wood broke off ,so I grab duck tape out of my box.I puzzle the piece of wood into the door and tape it.It gives the door a little character.

I start with my desk.I throw a strawberry printed table cloth over the desk in the front on your left.By know you should know strawberries are my favourite fruit.I put my admin in colour coded order and end it off with a photo of me and Danny. He was my best friend. We knew exactly what was going on in each others lifes ,we didn't meddle ,only gave advice if wanted.In the picture we are both laughing and holding ice creams.It was the day I failed my learners ,because he changed my exam days behind my back,and that morning I got a notification ,to remind me about the test.I called them , to tell them they have the wrong person and to confirm my original date.They found no mistake.I went and wrote the test , playing the guess game,hoping that faith is on my side,but I failed a mile away from the winning sign.Mother took me for ice cream,but Danny was in the car with a huge smirk.I immediately knew this was all his doing.At the store mother made jokes with Danny about his so called prank and I started to join them. That night I threw sugar all over his bed ,by the time he went to bed, it was so uncomfortable,At midnight he wake me up to help him change his bed sheets.   

I only have 13 kids in my class. I'm not use to a small crowd.I take my little chalkboards out and write each child's name on one.I place them on the desks ,alphabetical.I put one card on each desk that consist out of a joke,I bought them on sale at Typo.Just to put I smile on their face,before we start with math.Kids smiles turns into a frown when they see equations.

At the back of the classroom I put op posters of different bands,also bought them on sale at Typo : The Beatles,AC/DC,The Who,Radiohead,The Rolling Stones,Led Zeppelin,Pink Floyd,Aerosmith,The Beach Boys,U2,Queen,Red Hot Peppers,Pearl Jam,Nirvana,Lynyrd Skynyrd,Black Sabbath,Eagles,Guns N' Roses,Green Day,Def Leppard,Fleetwood Mac,The Doors The Cure,The Clash,Depeche Mode,R.E.M,Creedence Clearwater Revival,The Police,Steely Dan,Beastie Boys,The Kinks,The Smashing Pumpkins,Journey,Ramones,Bon Jovi , Maroon ,Talking Heads,Dire Straits,ZZ Top,Linkin,Genesis,Foo Fighters,Iron Maiden,Nine Inch Nails,Blink-182,Rage Against The Machine,The Smiths,Kiss,Boston,The Allman Brothers Band and Kings of Leon. A total of 51 posters on the back of the wall.Make it 52 ,in the middle of the wall and all the other posters I placed a Hannah Montana poster. Just to give the class a little character.

The hang light, yellow curtains on the windows.The last part I want to decorate  is the right side of whiteboard with quotes.I get the quotes that I have printed out and start to place them on the wall.
