Let's try this again... my sisters are really good at updating and I just don't seem to have the time. I'm going to try this for a bit and see if it works. So I just got back from NYC where I shopped, saw Brooklyn (which I loved) and walked a whole lot. I unfortunately have to go to school tomorrow and teach those little children who I sometimes want to drop kick...
I'm having some issues right now with my job. I want a job that stops when I leave the office (or at least doesn't last until my head hits the pillow). Teaching is one of those things in which there is always SOMETHING that I can be doing to improve my class or a lesson or whatever. So my mind doesn't stop turning until I fall asleep. This is TOO MUCH FOR ME. I love hanging out with kids but it really takes a lot out of me and I'm not spending any time for myself. I partially feel this stress because I feel very unorganized at school and don't have a system that works for me. My friend April who I work with is the most organized person I know and I try things that she uses and it lasts only a bit and then things get out of control again. I spend so much time after school just going through the papers that have accumulated over the course of the day... It makes me insane. While I was in NYC I spent an afternoon at Sarah's office before going to see Brooklyn, the Musical and I thought that it might be nice to have an office job. Isn't that why people get into teaching??? Because they don't want to cooped up in an office all day??? Anyway, I have no idea about what I would do. And I don't know if I would be willing to take a risk of changing jobs... the thought has just been on my mind.
So I'll try to update this more often... I'm trying to do something regularly in my life. It helps with the organization.
Ciao!
