I can't believe i haven't blogged in almost 8 months...so much has happened..
Today wasn't a great day. I had my employer critique me and I was greatly disappointed in myself. They haven't given me their feedback yet but I have already done pretty badly in my view. One, with great difficulty chooses their profession and the worst thing that one can feel is...is this really what i should be doing? am i any good? That's why today was so pivotal. I was going to see how good i really am...and the truth, as it is wont to be, is far from perfect.
But life goes on. There are so many more important things to think about...so many. I am the queen of procrastination...i can no longer get work home simply because - it doesnt get done. period. i can no longer do work at home. i prefer to watch Lost or anything on bbcfood, but i will not, no sir, i will not work. I check one book, then get up to grab a snack. then another. then a break. and so on. ugh.
Last week was interesting. I met the parents of one of my loveliest students. They were wonderful. no wonder, i thought. I feel this amazign connection to some of my kids - infact i unwittingly call them that all the time "my kids said this today" and then i pause. here's hoping..
