I don't understand why I am addicted to the Jersey Shore but I am. Some people are addicted to Facebook, for me it's the Jersey Shore. Anyway, I was teaching my third graders on Thursday and at the end of the lesson I promised we can play a vocabulary game. One of the words was famous. I here this girl in the background "my brother's famous, my brother's famous". I go over to her and I go "O yeah, who's your brother?" She said "Roni". I turned as red as a tomato!! I personally think he is sooo cute! :)

To be perfectly honest, I have never watched the show but my son thinks it's the best thing going. Make sure your fiance doesn't know how cute you think Roni is!
ReplyDeleteInteresting anecdote! I have never seen the show either, but I used to live near the Jersey shore, down by Ocean City, NJ, and I taught at Atlantic Community College near AC. I'll have to watch the show some time.
ReplyDeleteI have never seen Roni, but I am a big fan of Johnny Depp.
Hey Diane- Funny, My children and husband are addicted to the show. As stupid as it is, I am now an addict too. They made me watch it! I can't believe you have Roni's sister in class. He's not my type but I do have 3 Ronnie's in my life (hubby and son and Father -in-law).They are all cute too.
