Da Blalas: School Daze: My First Year

A young woman sneaks into her old teachers room and covers his eyes. “Guess who!””Dirty glasses?””Caroline!””Sigh.””No act! you LOVE me! Guess what!” Not waiting for a response, “I’m gonna be an art teacher!””In a public school!!!?””At my alma mater with my FAVORITE teacher!””Are you INSANE? Didn’t you learn ANYTHING?””What chu mean? I’m an awesome artist.””Not art! . . . LIFE. Let me tell you a tale of woe and horror- my first day in class! I was covered in blood and gore. . .”About the bookThe characters from “Pualani and the 3 Mano,” “Da Blalas In da Mano’s Hale,” “Da Blalas,” and “Ronin” return in another adventure following Pua’s dad as he embarks on his new job as an art teacher.Based loosely on my own career, I am using this book as a means to explore the interpersonal relationships that make teaching both an extremely demanding and rewarding profession.Many of the stories and personalities that I depicted are similar to real life situations that I either witnessed or lived through.
