February 4th - February 9th--What would you like to "talk about" with your fellow "Bloggers" this week? You have an "open mike."
This time of the year is really slow for me and I get a little irritated with the students. It has been this way for three years so I know it's coming and I can deal with it a little better, however this is my first time taking class(NTI) so it makes it more difficult. I actually feel pretty good physically , mentally, etc...but juggling a few things can be difficult at times(I think I am this way because of sacrifics made for completing my certification)..just like many of you!!!
As I use to say when I played football..."It takes a special kind of person to play this sport, football ain't for everybody".....WELL......
......It takes a special person to teach High School...High School ain't for everybody!
I think I can handle it because I haven't walked out yet..hehe
One more thing...I am the Advisor for the Asian Student Association(ASA) and they are preparing for a festival and I am at school everyday to 5:45-6:00....which further let's me know I can handle it a little longer!!!!!!...But it ain't easy...I pray April gets here FAST...although I LOVE NTI....(just in case my instructors read this...wink)...LOL
That's so cool that you're the advisor for the Asian Student Association. Maybe you can hold an Asian Food Festival at your school. Just think of all the great food!
ReplyDeleteSeriously, I'm glad you're hanging in there. It does get really tough this time of year, but spring and spring break aren't too far off.
" High school ain't for everybody?" Good thing you teach vocational! My guess is that your seniors have what my seniors have..."senior-itis". I gave mine a good dose of "Castor-Steven!" today. Their hands will probably fall off Sunday from writing! I love NTI as well and Jesse and Dr. Burns are the greatest! (Kisses and imaginary flowers to both!).
