So I finally got to a comfortable spot in my classes where I could start giving away those fountain pens I bought this summer. I took the first 10 minutes or so of class to have everybody circle up and I explained how to fill and use the pens, showed them how to fill them up, and let them ink up their new pens. They’ll be able to ink up whenever they need and I won’t have to do it for them. 🙂 Yay! I also gave them a sample bottle of ink to take home so they could try other colors. I have a good gallon and a half of blue and black to give out, but not a lot of other colors.
So how’s the raffle ticket sale going? The one where I’m selling raffle tickets for a chance to cut and color my hair? Yeah, that one…
Are the kids interested in buying tickets for the chance to cut and color my hair HOWEVER they want? Short answer yes. Long answer — I need to make posters and hang them up around campus to remind the kids I’m doing this! 🙂 A couple students bought tickets, but that’s been it. Two very nice people have bought tickets for me to give out – $50 and $20 worth. Very cool! So if a student buys one they get another for free, and I’ll also get names from teachers to randomly give out to students until I run out of extra tickets. 😀
If I get enough money I’m thinking about buying a new button maker. (Something like this.) My old one broke a couple years back.
Wish me luck. 😉
