This has possibly been the longest semester of my life. I've never been more ready to be DONE with something in my life!
For the last two weeks I have been working on my professional portfolio, which is full of educational stuff that BETTER get me a job. My portfolio sure could be better but let's keep our fingers crossed. I am still trying to grasp the concept that I am actually graduating from college and I have NOTHING planned for the future. When I decided to be a teacher five years ago I wish someone would have told me it's practically impossible to get a job. What do I have do to sell a kidney to teach kids? I mean really? It's a little ridiculous, don't you think? Before my internship this year, I thought good teaching was just loving kids. Boy was I wrong! I think teaching is the hardest profession I could have ever picked. I leave work thinking about my students and the next lesson I am planning to teach them. I think about them more than I think about myself!
It makes me sick to my stomach to think that this could be my last week to teach kids for a very long time. There is an excessive amount of qualified teacher who would make great teachers...How will I match up to them? If I don't get a job before next school year, I don't know what I will do with myself. Who will I worry about? What will I do? I guess get a dog? Can I just go back five years ago when I had no worries?
