I have a job! A real job!!! An ADULT job that includes ADULT things such as: benefits, paid sick days, and retirement funds! OH and the best part is my salary is yearly not hourly! WOW! I am so excited. I am going to be a para-educator (para-professional or para-pro is what most people know them as) at a special education high school in Northville ( Read more... )

Thanks Cali girl! ;-)

Nope! Well. . .OK, some do. They can be a hassle sometimes, but any teacher who genuinely doesn't like any of their students has a problem.

Congratulations! Get me a job in a school now!

Teaching can be frustrating and thankless work, I think the other teachers felt that teaching special needs kids would only increase the amount of stress involved.

I only have TWO MORE classes to finish, but it's so hard. I have panic attacks and want to die because I have to write some shitty papers! It's seriously the most pathetic thing even and I feel like a big loser.

I get that way, too. After a certain point, it's just not possible to do yet another busywork essay.

You have every reason to be confident in yourself, Kathryn. You're far closer to being an accomplished human being than most people my age (including myself).

Good point about the teachers. It's nice to hear I'm not the only one who has this problem. Thanks!

I wish you wouldn't be so hard on yourself. I guess you probably want to tell me that too. :-P

Thanks but there is no diabetes in my family at all. I just need to exercise, but I don't and cry about it.
