Still alive!
May. 17th, 2007 07:58 pmBarely. On the bus at 7:45 every morning, doing stuff at the school from 8:30 to 5 or 6 every night, up till midnight doing lesson plans and then putting in 12-hour days at the weekends with homework.
Had a bit of a wobble yesterday (seriously considered phoning in sick, but I would have only had to do my assessed teaching practice some other time, thus adding to stress and worry) and although I didn't do as well as I would have if I'd been feeling better, I still did OK. Thankfully we had nothing to hand in today so instead of getting a head start on the weekend's nightmare, I came home and went to sleep at 6:30. Amazingly, I felt almost human today. Got in this morning to find out I wasn't the only one who used the down time to sleep rather than prepare or get a life.
Did I mention that they love me and think I'm great? Yeah, me. Really.
If I live through this weekend, in two weeks I will be a qualified teacher of English as a foreign language.
