But that ominous feeling of all of it coming to a close is starting to creep in. I've made some great friendships, I've learned loads from all of you, and I am taking home (or rather, to work) a lot of useful knowledge. As much as I want this semester to end, I still don't want to let go. But that's ok, because teaching is a career of constant learning. I'll never stop learning.

Mamane Open Mic
I have this strange feeling that saying a very long goodbye is coming soon. I don't like that feeling. The transition from one chapter of your life to another doesn't always sit well with me. At the conclusion of every school year (including my high school and college years), I always felt lost... abandoned... restless. I think that means I'm meant to always be in school - whether as a teacher or a student. Granted being both a teacher and a student has been extremely intense; but, you know, I seem to thrive on that! I work well under pressure (I guess that's why I was a pretty good news producer).
You are right Amy there is a bittersweetness to this time of year with the end of a chapter of our life and transitioning to another. It has been quite challenging to be a teacher and a student at the same time for me as well. It is hard to believe that we are so close to the end of the semester.
