Pleasantly Surprised

I kinda suck at this blogging thing. : ) Anyways, this school year is wrapping itself up pretty quickly; I only have 10 school days until the end of the year and I can't even believe it. Before I started teaching and even after a few months of the school year had passed, people kept warning me about how miserable my first year of teaching would be and how much I would probably hate it! lol Fortunately, I found that this was not the case. Am I exhausted? YES! Am I ready to be done with the year? DEFINITELY! Am I looking forward to another year of teaching? ABSOLUTELY! Some days were great and other days I wished that I had just stayed in bed, but I think that you'll have those days regardless of your profession or situation in life; it's simply part of life. I feel a sense of accomplishment too. It's nice to know that teaching is something I can do and that I feel good about. I had worried that I would get into the classroom and not be able to hack it and have all of my college years gone to waste. BUT I did it! YAY!!! I'm gonna miss my "little naughties" as I affectionately call them! We've had a good year: been through a lot, learned a lot, accomplished a lot, and SURVIVED! Woohoo!
