Loving my life..


This week really seemed to drag on. I am glad it is finally Saturday, although I have been so tired to do almost anything. Lets see, I got my first pay check and paid all my bills.. thats been fun, now theres like no money left. But I guess that is just part of growing up. I got a lot done at school, figured out how to put grades in the computer and joined the staff spirit team. haha its so much fun a young lady named Adrienne who teaches sciences and an older man Shane who teaches computers make up the staff spirit team at Desert Oasis High School. Adrienne helped me sooo much this week almost being my voice to some of the concerns I have been having. Then on Friday I got to school at 6am and did some stuff for the spirit club, ( we made little bags of hershey kisses with a little poem saying they had been kissed by the staff spirit team and we hope to see them at the football game!) They were pretty cute, during 7th period we had a huge pep rally assembly sort of thing. It was kind of different but really cool. It felt so weird standing on the floor instead of sitting in the bleachers. I am a teacher now, not a high school student anymore. Although I graduated from high school 5 years ago I feel like I am still a student, I love it. After the assembly another super nice teacher Anna who teaches Science came down and helped me upload my grades, and then just answer any questions I may have. After that I ran to the ATM took some money out and changed my clothes for the football game. I meet at the football field at 3:15 to take tickets. This was soo much fun, stressful but a lot of fun. I worked the home gate with the 2 school security people Patricia and De'andre. I took tickets while they looked through purses and used the metal detector wand to search every person who came in. Wow people can be soo rude, they were all complaining about having to go through security, I was like this is for your safety and for the others who are out there. Lots of drama for the first home football game. But its all good because we won! I love Desert Oasis! I really feel apart of the school, and I believe the students and the staff have soo much school spirit! I loved working the football game, I meet a ton of people! I had many of my own students there who were happy to see me, they even gave me hugs.. aww. I love my chosen career. I honestly don't think I could be any happier. Friday was a long day I was gone from 5:40 am till 10:30 pm.. Crazy I know. But I love it so it dosent really bother me, just makes me sleepy..

I totally know what you mean about still feeling like a student. I have felt kind of lost, because I'm not a student but not really a teacher yet, and then being so close to the students age..weird feeling I know you know it. Glad you are enjoying your first year!
