Quarterly RL update
Dec. 9th, 2014 12:08 amSo, where to begin?
This year has gone really fast. Am I the only one who feels that?
I have another teaching job, can't remember if I mentioned that in my last RL post. Not that anybody is actually reading/interested lol. It's alright as far as jobs go. I realised at some point this year that teaching is something I'm supposed to be doing. I am meant to be a teacher, it makes me happy. Bad days aside. Aren't there always bad days?
Coming up to Christmas is always hectic, term reports, parent-teacher meetings, teaching the holiday program. I'm doing a writing workshop for three days from Wednesday and then parent teacher meetings are scheduled after and on the weekend. Also have to call old parents and see if they want to come back, apparently sales is part of my job now? Who knew. This week was the week I was dreading, 12 hour days for three days then extra training and my usual full weekend. I also have to finish my coursework for my psychology masters course. I'm mostly done but finding the time to write it all up is hard this week. Basically it has to be done tomorrow because it's due on the 23rd but I fly to UK next Sunday and then it's all meeting people and family stuff and Christmas then I fly back to Singapore. Not really much chance to do work while there so it's got to be done today/tomorrow. *flops over dead*
Also my ears have decided to stop working. Nice of them. I think it's an ear infection or head cold but only in my ears? No idea I'm partially deaf right now and keep going dizzy. Fun times. Need to go to the Dr's tomorrow try to get it cleared up before the long flight home on Sunday. I don't want to be flying with blocked ears, that is painful! My brain is currently hurting from the pressure. >_<;;
Trying to stay positive, not let stress get to me. I apparently have no right to be stressed as my job is apparently easy o_o actual words spoken to me last week. Teaching is easy.... I'll just let that sit with you all. I had no words. Tears have been frequent this month. The last two have been tough plowing through everything. I used to find reprieve online but not so anymore. Just hiding in my hole, keeping my head down. Not really missed anyway so it's not a big deal that I've been quiet. ^^;
I did find out I get an extra week off next year, which is nice, it'll be unpaid though which is less nice but win some you lose some.
I really right now just want the pain killers/decongestants to relieve some of this pressure in my head and for my ears to hear stuff clearly again. That would be a nice thing to go right.
Well, this wasn't the cheeriest post. I need to stop whining and just get on with it haha!
I just want to write and sleep though :<
I'm not even sure why I wrote this now >_>
*crawls back into hole*
I'll probably not be posting again until next year unless some miracle of time happens and I have fic so have a merry Christmas/ happy holiday everyone and may your new year be a positive one for the year ahead.
