who cares about ss, anyways?
im changing professions.
i've about had it with these kids. i've had it with their disrespect, and their awful laziness. i'm sick of them "not getting it" when they are just plain lazy. i can't give them a worksheet to do and have them work through it. "I didn't learn that". BS.
the more i think about the movie freedom writers, the more it disgusts me. the more any teacher movie disgusts me. the more society's whole portrayal of teaching disgusts me. we're either expected to be super heroes or we're a bunch of fat, lazyy people who don't care. you only get written up in hollywood if you are some sort of superhero. no teacher who does their regular job is a super hero. and from the looks of hollywood, teaching really is "easy". right teach for america? you don't need no damn certificate to teach. princeton people - any one who is "smart" enough can teach, right? right america? teacher prep programs don't teach us nothin, right? we're a bunch of ignorant fools. right, and we're stupid for paying $40,000 a year to learn how to teach. anyone can do it, right? all you need to do is work three jobs, get divorced from your husband, and somehow take your kids to the holocaust mueseum so that THEN they'll suddnely love english. because that's exactly what it takes to get your gangster kids to love english. history. nothing like history to inspire students to write about their lives. except, oh what a minute, it doesn't matter in any case. o nly math and english count for hazelwood because that's what NCLB says. and oh wait a minute, science kind of counts because its needed for comparing against other countries - math & science. in every world, in every sense, social studies is still left out.
another day. frustrating day. i hate tuesdays. i haven't had a good tuesday in a long while. it's ridiculously cold outside, i nearly froze my hands off filling up my depleted tires, and i don't know where my good glove-mits are. i just got them for christmas and i could have sworn i brought them in with me when i went to walgreens. i don't know anymore. i'm going to cry if i've already lost them. Night's treats are missing, too. Either someone ate both or something. i don't get life sometimes.
no, i won't change professions in the end. i just HATE this year. i want this year of ultimate misery to end. then my second year can start. and it can be miserable, but hopefully not quite as miserable. if it is, im definitely changing professions.
i'm not ready to quit yet. but i'm damn close.
