frustration.

i'm trying to imagine what exhausted felt like last week, because this week it's at a whole new level.

add to that the fact that there are a couple japanese teachers who seem to think they don't have to do anything because they don't speak english. basically i am running around doing everything that has to been done in english like dealing with the college kids, the middle school visiting kids and their chaperone, handing out lunches, etc. while i ASSUME that the other teachers are doing the other miscellaneous things. then it turns out they're not, and *i* end up doing it. and it's pissing me off. royally.

the program has scheduled activities on saturday and i'm seriously considering not coming in. i don't work on saturdays and after a good cry in the nurse's office today, the nurse told me it's my right to take my days off. and the seeming lack of appreciation for my efforts is...i have no words. mostly i want to yell at them to get off their asses. hello!? you could AT LEAST help doing things that you don't need enlgish for! or fucking learn a FEW words in english, it wouldn't kill you. instead you just stand back and watch me be pulled in 4 different directions only to have to hide away in the nurse's office to vent and then try to pull myself together.

and then i get word from the college kids that their kids refuse to work or speak ANY english or they sleep. and i want to punch them. if they feel like it's a waste of their time or not fun, don't come to school.

that's all. thankyouverymuch.
