MIA

It's been a crazy few months. Student teaching is coming to a steady yet not quick enough end and I am more than burnt out. I would be happy to just sit in a camp chair with my feet roasting by the fire, with the breeze of the mountains carrying its natural scent through my nostrils. I could stay there for weeks. I have not gotten a decent night’s sleep in 7 weeks. I have a constant sore throat from trying to speak loud in class. I am losing patience for 6th graders. I feel like a rock star when I pass my 1st graders. I am ready to be done. I am taking a year off. Two reasons. I have been doing school for 18 years straight. I don’t enjoy it like I use to. I find it monotonous and filled with fiery hoops that I am forced to jump through, while paying an arm and a leg, just to earn that piece of paper. I know, it’s not just a piece of paper, its proof of my eternal posing agony that I have endured through for 5 years. It will be worth it, but I just want it to be over with. 2nd reason. Brian and I are having a little Wiser of our own. If you want more, go to my baby blog. It’s private so send me your email and I will invite you. So other than that, I am pretty ecstatic for the rest of this year. It’s gonna be a big one. My brother comes home from the desolate lands of Uruguay, my other bro graduates high school, my sis is now 16 so we can all do quad dates together and my parents are taking us to see LES MIS in MAY Holla!!!!  Should be fun. I am hoping to get into more of a routine here soon cause my education is coming to an end. Wish me luck.
