This week has been a rough one so far, friends.
Kids are crazy. Let's be real: seventh grade kids are crazy.
I taught a lot this week, and that wasn't too bad, but I've felt like I've left every day with a sore throat because of the volume that I have to be at constantly. Our rooms have super high ceilings, so the din is always incredible, and beyond that sometimes you just have to yell to get their attention. It's really insane.
I also don't eat during the day, and I don't drink anything (because the water is almost always gone), so I am exhausted and dehydrated by the time I walk out. It's probably a very bad habit, and something I need to seriously work on, but honestly, it's not even the hunger that's a problem. I don't even notice. It's not drinking anything. I need to get better at that.
On the bright side, I've made a plethora of different outfits so far and all the girls constantly compliment me on my fashion sense, which is both great and troubling. On one hand, you wonder if you are chic - or on the other, if you dress like a 13 year old.
I like to think, however, that I am chic.
Other than that, I don't have much to report. I'm very tired and tonight is expectations night - basically where we tell the parents what we expect and give them a chance to ask questions. We'll see how that goes. Wish me luck!
