This is my second year of teaching. To say that my first year was absolutely horrible is being nice. In a lot of ways, I am basing my entire teaching career on this year. I know, that sounds really dramatic, but really, I don't want an entire career of horrible-ness. Some days I come home exhausted and wondering whether this is really the career for me. These days I start looking up culinary school websites and begin wondering if I need a change. Other days are like this, so great and full of fun that I don't want to leave. Sometimes my students write me notes when I'm having a bad day and I forget why I was upset in the first place. Teaching is definitely a unique job full of weird people like myself. Today I was taking down these All About Me posters from our hallway and read this. It melted my heart. Maybe this teaching gig isn't so bad after all. :-D
