This morning I woke up and immediately went right back into entering grades, all at 5AM. By the time 6AM rolled around I was angry. Not at my kids but at the fact that my kids did not get the chance to apply themselves properly in the last 3 weeks. After testings we had a craft fair, after that we had our Halloween activities, next week the kids have 3 days of excursions, and progress reports are due on NOV 24. Sadly my kids don't have much to show for it, even though I know that they have a lot to share. I was so frustrated.
And you know the saying, "when it rains it pours."
Started my period soon after, found out that my skylight is still leaking (which means I have to fix it as soon as I get home), I still haven't finalized my classes camping trip, and I still have reports to do for both work and grad school.
In a right state of frustration (I even wore my heels to work with the hope I could "curb stomp" something) I stalk towards my classroom. Passing by an opening between the office and the convent I spy the sunrising. In those two seconds my frustration evaporated in a total moment of universal contentment and then I thought to myself "Shit! There went my righteous mood of anger!"
Now I'm mildly irritated and amused. Also I am so ready to give my students their test today!
MWAHAHAHAH!!
