So remember that one time that I wanted summer to go by super fast so I could start teaching? Yeah, is it too late to take that back? This summer has been craaaaazy busy...in a nutshell: work, flood, New Teacher Induction, Student Council camp, Trek, trip home (that was unexpectedly made longer because of a death in the family), several Student Council meetings, preparing for my first year of teaching, and I've been bombarded with decisions about health care and retirement plans. Basically I feel like it FLEW by.
Now here I am 10 days away from being a big girl with a career. I feel so much pressure! I have to make grown up decisions about health care and retirement. I have to live up to all of the evaluations and letters of recommendation that I used to make me sound awesome. I have to be responsible for teenagers. AHH! I've decided that if nothing else, this career is going to give me major anxiety issues.
In all actuality, I am so so so incredibly excited to finally start a career that I have known I wanted for the past 10 years. There were times during it all that I felt like it would never come, and yet here it is. It's exciting to know that all my hard work has paid off and that I'm finally starting this chapter of my life. I have gone down to my classroom a few times now. The furniture is where I want it, posters are on the walls, and I finally have access to my computer! The more and more my room comes together, the more excited I am to spend everyday in there!
