In high school, I described life as a sine wave. I still think that it is true. For as many downs you have, there are that many ups as well. As much as the year has been tough, I think that I have true created a bond with my students. I don't believe that any of the hate me if you ask them on a regular day. I even have visitors every morning and occasionally during lunch. I would not say I am the popular teacher that everyone wants to visit b/c (s)he is super nice, cute, or captivating. I 'll leave that up to a friend of mine. I would say that I fly under the radar, get my work done well, and come home to a normal balanced life. That's what I am hoping for anyway.
I am told that the 2nd year is better than the 1st. And the years after that get even easier. I sure hope so. At least I've overcome my anxiety of speaking in front of a group of people.
