How do you do it every.single.day?
No... seriously. I teach CCD, or Catholic Education classes to Catholic children that go to Public School. It's for an hour every Monday night and most nights are tolerable. Enjoyable even. But tonight? Tonight was difficult. They were wild and crazy. And I could handle that. Really and truly. But they also had attitudes. Oh the attitudes. That's hard for me to take.
I know it's the excitement of having the next five days off of school and the excitement of Christmas. I get it. I do. It's hard for me to focus at work knowing that I have a few days off.
What's sad is I was going to do this for a living! I guess God really does know what he's doing, after all. Oy vey.
Now I shall self medicate with episodes of One Tree Hill. Season 6 is playing on the WB!
haha, I love this post! I was talking to my mom this weekend about my students and said turned around and said, "where did my sweet Brittany go? All you do is tell me that the kids needs be responsible for their things and you don't want to hear excuses". For me it's like I have a whole other teacher personality. It's me, but at the same time I have a lot of walls up. It kind of makes me laugh to think about it. You really just have to let things roll or you will loose your mind!
