Staff Haikus
A Haiku is a Japanese poetic form. This is how you do it:
1st line: 5 syllables
2nd line: 7 syllables
3rd line: 5 syllables.
That is all it is! Write a poem about Staff that fits that criteria and don’t worry about rhyming…it doesn’t have to.
Here is an example and where we got the idea:
This staff is a hoot
Full of vip, vhim and vigor
Think I will keep them!
Post your Haiku by Friday, February 27th and then post a comment on two of your co-workers Haikus by Monday, March 2nd. Your comments shouldn’t just be: Good Job! or I like this one. They should tell the person why you agree or disagree with what they wrote and why it reminds them of staff.
If you have any questions ask Sara or Josh…Have fun!

This staff is awesome
With them fun is endless
Lose them would be notsome
(I will have to sight Kelly for the notsome word)
This staff is unique!
Fun and Camaraderie
Keep us together!
laughing all the way
a giggly jungle gym
lots of fun to share
each member different
all have brought contributions
sum of it: MC
Lots of Crazy Peps
Living life in the M C
Work and Play all day
First off, what does "notsome" mean? Other than that I really like what Grant the Enforcer (right?) had to write for his Haiku. He is right on the money when he says that the "fun is endless". I love how we have all sorts of giggles whenever we get together!
The giggles kind of helps me segue into Laura's Haiku. I really like the way she phrased: "giggly jungle gym". I thought it was really creative and pretty accurate about our relationship with each other. When I read it, it just made me smile.
Where does the time go?
Working hard from dusk till dawn,
And it's all worthwhile
i like upgrades.
I think each of us is unique in a very distinctive way but yet all together we make up MC Hall.
smalls could be a rap :) but its definitely a true story kind of going back to upgrades we are all crazy in our own way, yet while balancing free time and work we pull mc together.
1,2,3 plus 4
two for all on evry floor
open a new door
Our staff is quite fun.
But sometimes it wont make sense
Refrigerator
Critique:
I like Josh's it gives the outlook of a fresh faced RA ready to bond with staff
I also like Mikaela's
her use of her vocabulary makes her haiku unique
MC silly staff
Bringing smiles to my face
And laughs everyday
Just to comment...notsome is a word that Don and I came up with and if you're interested I can send you the Facebook page on it. It's cool.
I think that everyone did a great job with these.
Grant-I enjoyed your use of notsome
Mikaela-I love your set up with the two sentences and the describing words in the middle.
Laura-I agree with Mikaela that your choice of giggly jungle gym is very creative and very accruate.
Heather-Way to bring math into it! I would agree that what makes us MC is our differences and contributions.
Josh-I enjoyed the use of a slang term in the poem. Very nice. I think that we play just as hard as we work and that has been outlined by the food sales this week. You have all done a great job with that and I have enjoyed the team developing that's taking place each of those nights in the lobby.
Mike-I too think that all the work we do is worthwhile.
Sara-The minute I read yours I thought of those jump rope songs that kids sing. Thanks for the great image!
Jack-Our staff is quite fine...but what's up with refridgerator?
I would like to thank Mikaela, Jack & Sara for completing the development fully. I look forward to hearing the comments of Josh, Grant, Heather, Mike, and Laura. Liz...I hope that you get a chance to post your poem and make comments. Thanks everyone!
Heather-- its true how we all have unique characteristics that make our meetings worth while
Jack- i agree. our meetings never ever make sense... like how i won geek of the week twice now... common...
I really like how everyone talked about how we work and play in Here in the MC, because we do have a lot of fun here.
Also i really liked Jacks refrigerator, I dont know why but it just made sense.
Grant, I like how you made yours rhyme even though it doesn't have to.
I think that each of these very well represents their writer.
Jack - So... what is up with refigerator... I don't think I get it.
Spaeter - I like how you're bringing back the upgrades... kudos... kudos
And I would like to apologize to the whole staff for using "sight" instead of "cite" in discussing Kelly's ownership of the word notsome... I swear... I'm usually a better writer than that!
Support of one another is strong
Friendships will last long
Thanks to all of you for helping me along
Thanks to those of you that added to the blog. I appreciate it.
