Week in Review

Holy cheez-its, this past week flew! I really don't know where the time went... This week I finished reading The Five People You Meet in Heaven with my juniors. I finished reviewing for the SAT/ACT with my seniors. I made my last lesson plans of the school year, for the last three weeks of school we have left. That's right, in three weeks, I will officially be on summer vacation. I will (finally) have time to finish writing my thesis. I will (finally) be able to sleep in late on Mondays, Tuesdays, and heck, every day of the week if I want to. I will (finally) be able to spend all day wearing my pajamas and no makeup. Or shoes. Whatsoever. (Yes, you have my permission to be jealous.)

But in three weeks, I will officially say good-bye to my students, some of whom I will probably never see again -- except on Facebook, maybe. This is what makes being a teacher bittersweet. Yes, we have two months off in the summer. But those little rugrats we watch over and mold into educated young adults for 10 months leave us all too soon. And like it or not, each and every one of them leaves their impressions on me.

Blah, enough of me being maudlin! It must be all the cold medicine I took this morning -- I woke up with a stuffy nose and sore throat. Here are my posts from this past week in case you missed them:

It is really sad saying goodbye to the students--especially the ones that have weaseled their way into your heart (for me, it's almost always the most obnoxious ones, haha!). But summer goes by SO fast and then there you are again, in no time . . .
