How many more weeks until summer?

I want a new job.


I am soo tired of teaching. Every day I come home exhausted. Not motivated to do anything. I don't feel like I am making a difference or an impact on any of these kids. I feel so overwhelmed and unorganized and I don't have any time to do anything about it. I am trying to figure out what happened to my attitude/out look on life since I have been here and since august. I used to come home every day so happy, loving my job and the kids and the school. Now I just feel tired. What has happened to me?!


I would love to go back to grad school and study educational technology but I have NO money for that. I can barely afford the $1,000 every month from undergrad (and no that number is not an exaggeration)! I want to stay in education because I truly think that is where I belong but I am tired of alll the things that I (and other teachers) have to do/put up with everyday. If it was just planning, grading and teaching everyday my life would be so much easier..but add the constant meetings, forms, professional development, conferences, discipline problems and it just wears me down.

Anyone who says teaching is easy needs to come spend one day with me.


On a brighter note, J and I booked the place where we are going to have our wedding! I am so glad I have fun things to look forward to every day when I come home.
