So the year has happened.
It does not feel like square one but I feel stronger this year.
I have far less on my plate but I've naturally added more to it.
School is not what it used to be. People don't have the kind of "give it my all" people that they used to. It is sad, really. It creates frustration for all those who are forced to be working around those who have forgotten why they are there. For people who have forgotten community.
In university they sell us the idea of a school but when you get there it is totally different than what you thought it would be.
To the new teachers out there, it may be overwhelming, but don't forget who you are and what your goals are. You cannot change everything but you can change something, so do what you can. Always remember that they school day ends and then your life carries on. Have other projects to work on and create time for yourself.
I hope this year is filled with possibilities and opportunities for both me and the children.
Keep your spirit alive.
Don't forget about you.
