Didn't make any lessons, didn't make my course outline, did NOTHING.
And I don't even feel the pressure to do anything yet. This is bad |

I start teaching next week. I did lesson plans for next week today. Luckily, I had the other 8th grade math teachers working with me on them.

School starts next week for us, on Wed. But I go in on Monday. Boo. But I have managed to go out and buy some new materials and what not? |

At least I'm not the only one. Yea, I have the other teachers, who I think are just going to give me everything
But I should at least read through the text book

What the fuck? Today was my fourth day of school!
It only took four days for a student to call me a name. It was "Snatch." |

I'd be afraid I'd bust out laughing if a kid called me Snatch.

It happens all the time. I teach emotionally disturbed children, and that's part of the job.
Sometimes, it's funny...okay, a lot of the time it's funny. |

You probably finished much earlier than we did! Every spring when some of you guys are like "one week left!!!" I'm like, WHAT THE FUCK I'M HERE UNTIL JUNE 22ND and I hate you. Yeah, I was finished on May 22 last year.

My kids come back Monday, but I'm SO not ready. I spent today cleaning out my closet and organizing and hanging stuff on walls. Tomorrow we have meetings
all day, and Thursday night is open house. I still have to get ready for open house and plan for next week.

Yea, we don't finish until really late. It sucks
But I find that we start really early this year. Stupid labor day. |

The shitty side to it, though, is that because I'm going to Boston for Labor Day weekend, I lose TWO of my leave days because I'm taking off Friday. We
get docked double days if we take off the day before or after a scheduled school vacation.
And I have to go back one fucking day after Memorial Day this year. ONE DAY. Waste of time. It's close-out day. Can we not just stay later on the fucking last day and get it over with? Sorry for the spontaneous rant. |

I'm in a new district and new school this year, so I spent most of today asking a lot of questions about policies and procedures at the school. No one has
mentioned anything about them until I asked.

Yea, I'm starting for the first time. I have my new teacher orientation next Wednesday. So exciting...
Ugh I just don't want to start. I'd really rather just be going back to undergrad college |
