Where does the week go?!

                I’m just sitting at my desk on a Thursday after school and wonder to myself, where does the week go?  I know I have said this several times throughout the year, but when you’re busy you just really don’t understand how time goes by.  It seems like I was just here, Monday morning, working off an hour of sleep!  Haha.  I guess that is a good thing, rather than the opposite, and have the days drag on and can’t wait for Friday.  I have so much stuff to do within the next week and a bit it’s insane.  Marking coming out of my ears with finals as well as report cards, and then packing for Hawaii and Thailand J  I can still remember back in September when we were all like, so when is January break?!  And now it’s finally here.  You can tell that both the students and the teachers are needing this break.  Two more teaching days and then exams next week for the students starting on Tuesday. 

                I also have some awesome news for next semester.  I talked to the principal a couple weeks ago inquiring if there was any way that I could try teaching something else, as English is the farthest from my comfort zone and my background.  Turns out, all I had to do was ask J  My new schedule is two blocks of PE10, one block of Drama 10 and one block of English 10.  I still have three courses to prep for, but PE will be a lot less marking.  It’ll also be extremely hot in the summer, but I am prepared for it.  I had to get some new clothes at the outlet mall Hong Kong for PE, as it’s a whole new ball game when it comes to clothes.  I have to wear polo shirts and athletic pants….sigh….lol, I’m so happy that I get to wear runners to work, and my knees are going to love me more. 

                Anyways, this is just a thought that I had…thought I would share it.  The weekend probably won’t be too exciting as everyone has tones of work to do.
