Sometimes I wonder if I just barely made “sane.” As in, you need a 70 or above to score medication, and I got a 68.
I’m hating my job right now. And I’m doing a terrible job at it — the students have been working on their semester exam reviews, so I’ve just sat at my computer NOT working. A lot of time is spent on Twitter, Google Reader and personal email.
But then again, part of that time is spent looking into new technology (stuff like Moodle) that I discover through Twitter, or activities like the RPM Challenge or February Album Writing Month. Part of me is getting ready to attack next semester, and incorporate outside-the-box stuff like teaching Spanish by having my students record songs, but when I’m at school, face to face with the students, I can’t stand them. I’m done with them. I don’t want to bother trying, because they stopped bothering so long ago.
I have all these lofty plans, but my bubble is so thin looking at it pops it.
Because I’m insane, I’m also trying to start an after-school writing group. Is this just one more task I’m adding to my plate, adding to my burn-out? Or is this the little ray of light that will help me get through the week?
