Ten months update ...IT'S A NEW YEAR!!!!...
Started
student teaching. It's fun. I walk around the hall and there is a timer
is my head and it keep up with the seconds. I guess it's natural to
treat everyone like a 1st grader when you were 1st grade teacher for
half a century, but sometime it's annoying. I am 4 months away from
being a college graduate I don't need you to tell me AND SHOW me how to
sequence numbers (ARE YOU KIDDING ME WOMEN! :) )
Actually that
didn't bother me, what bothered me is the fact that it took her 58
seconds to think of the last number she wrote. ( Yes, I am literally
counting the seconds).
Things that bother me
1. Are You volunteering?
Teachers and staff asking me if I am volunteering, I get this question
EVERY DAY once or twice. Now I say , "YES! I am volunteering". "OH!
that so nice of you, good for you". WHAT? WHAT IS GOOD FOR YOU? I created this bad habit of imagining things in my head, like when the lady said "good for you", I imagined smashing her face on the copier and ask her " WHAT IS GOOD FOR ME ? IS THIS GOOD ENOUGH FOR YOU ? ( while I make copies of her face). OH and the other night I waited for my father and brother in-law after work to give them ride home. Let me say this, first of all it was Sunday I had to get up at 6:00 next morning and I waited for them 1 hour and half it was 11:00 by the time they come out and on our way they had the audacity to talk about how bad of a drive women are, first of all they are in my car so I imagined pulling over to the side of the highway and telling them something is wrong with the car and when they get off DRIVE AWAY! ( BOY WAS THAT FUNNY WHEN IT WAS HAPPENING IN MY HEAD)
I
learned few important lessons this past few months. I learned that
there is no point in getting angry and annoyed by yourself and to
yourself.(Get it). I use to tell myself that it's natural to get
angry and annoyed but now I found a solution. I do get angry and annoyed
but I learned how to calm myself down in like 0 second. I chant
DONUTS !DONUTS! MY BED ! KOREAN DRAMAS!
And BAAM! I am smiling in 0 second(s) .
The
hardest thing about student teaching is getting up in the morning. The
DONUTS chant doesn't work in the morning. So, I cover my self and try to
forward the day to 3:30 P.M using my magic remote. I never fail, it
never works either. There is nothing wrong in trying magic.
So
I love weekends because I am not at school but at work and I don't have
to wake up as early but I am sales person and I HATE PEOPLE! SO that
is a problem. So, I like week days because I don't have to deal with
stupid people , actually I do but they are not paying me so. OH! ANOTHER
ANNOYING THING ABOUT STUDENT TEACHING IS "DO YOU GET PAID? (question)
"NO" NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO". I guess I would have been less grumpy if
I was paid. :)
