Goodbye!!!!!!!!!!
This blog began at the encouragement of a friend, but in my infinite wisdom I managed to kill that friendship. There is no point in continuing on my own. I've enjoyed writing this blog, but it is too painful to sit here and think about the loss. Perhaps I will return to it, or perhaps I will build a new one elsewhere, but for now this is it.
I will leave on a positive note though.
Tasiujaq was the best experience of my life. I LOVED living there and instantly became attached to the students and staff. In fact, I agreed to go back next week to fill-in for another teacher after the Christmas break. I'm not so sure it was the wisest decision as I will be teaching at the primary level; something I am not qualified for nor have ever really wanted to do. Still, the chance to go back was too tempting to turn down.
If only I could have kept the Science/Math job. It has been a long time since I felt so at home at a place. I felt welcome for the first time in ages, but it was only a temporary spot. I was living in another person's home and teaching another person's students.
I need to try and find my own place.
I sometimes wonder if such a place exists.
Shit what a crappy posting.
Who the fuck cares.
No one will read this.
