Yeah, so stressed doesn't really come close to how I feel today. It's nearing the end of the semester and everything is creeping up, and I still have about 7 hours of observations to do. BOOOOO. And I'm starting to dislike that lab class, it's so depressing. Well, it just strengthens my desire to work in a private school instead of a public school. Especially since my lead teacher told me today that she spends about $200 on supplies for her kids each month because their parents can't afford to buy them paper and pencils. For all that, the pay cut of working at a private school probably evens out, because if those parents can pay thousands of dollars in tuition then they can certainly afford paper. Plus, there are just so many laws and regulations now, like don't touch the kids, watch what you say, etc. etc. *Sigh* One teacher got sued by a first grader, yes, a first grader who claimed that the teacher smacked him. Are you kidding me? Yet there are other teachers out there sleeping with their students and not getting penalized. I have to get up early and go observe tomorrow, boo. But on a happy note, I'm 21 now.
I had a good birthday, but I'm kinda glad it's over - birthdays take forever when you have friends, a boyfriend, and 2 seperate families that all want to see you. I got a lot of money though, so I sense a trip to Shoe Carnival and the mall on Friday - along with the grocery store which is what I should be saving my money for, haha!
So far I've had 2 pina coladas, a sex on the beach, and a strawberry margarita. All good. I think my next drink will be wine of some sort, I really wanna see how I like some of the rose ones. Well, guess I better get cracking on the studying and stuff. I'll update later.
preppy private school
